WATCH: Billie Eilish forgot her own lyrics at Coachella and played it off like a champ

Billie Eilish Coachella

Billie Eilish can do no wrong at the moment.

The rise of Billie Eilish has been one of the biggest success stories of the year so far, and it doesn’t look like it’s going to slow down anytime soon.

The 17-year-old just sampled a classic scene from The US Office (who were more than pleased with how the song turned out), and her album WHEN WE FALL ASLEEP, WHERE DO WE GO? has been a huge hit.

Most recently, she performed at Coachella Music Festival in California, and the fans definitely seemed to love her performance, even though she had one fairly major slip up…

While singing her song ‘all the good girls go to hell’, she completely forgot the lyrics, and just started swearing and shouting.

She tried to hum along for a second, before asking “What the fuck are the words though?”

Take a look here:

She somehow manages to look cool, even when making a balls of her biggest performance yet. Legend.

And although we’re sure she loved the bright lights of the Coachella stage, we’re sure she’s even more fired up for appearance at this year’s Electric Picnic festival in Stradbally a few months from now.

Lucky us.
