American singer-songwriter Billie Eilish has had an exceptional year so far. The Ocean Eyes hitmaker won her first Oscar Award for her original song, No Time To Die for the action-packed James Bond film of the same name and headlined the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in California.

BILLIE EILISH AT GLASTONBURY FESTIVAL At 20 years old, Billie Eilish became the youngest headliner at Coachella earlier this year. Eilish, who made her Glastonbury debut in 2019, will achieve the same at the United Kingdom-based music festival on 24 June.

Speaking to The Guardian, Eilish's mother, Maggie Baird, said the achievement is a very pinch-me moment .
People always ask: How do you feel on this momentous day?' But as a parent, everything your kid does from the beginning is kind of amazing. I was blown away when she was playing the little club in our tiny area of Highland Park [in Los Angeles]. It just stays mind-blowing, said Baird.
The Glastonbury Festival kicked off on Wednesday 22 June and is set to wrap up on Sunday 26 June. The likes of Kendrick Lamar, Lorde, Diana Ross and Little Simz are all set to take the stage.

COACHELLA STUNT DOUBLE While at Coachella in April, Billie Eilish, much like other festival-goers, wanted the opportunity to explore the festival, so she convinced one of her dancers to dress as her stunt double.
We got a black wig and we put buns in it and we gave her a mask and sunglasses, she told Apple Music as per IOL.
Everybody thought it was me. I put on a big black coat and a traffic vest, hood and glasses.
