Billie Eilish called Friday - the day she headlined Glastonbury Festival - a "really dark day for women in the US" after the Supreme Court ended the country’s constitutional right to abortion.The 20-year-old singer’s comments come after it was announced that the US court decided to overturn the landmark 1973 Roe v Wade case that legalised abortion nationwide.
During her set on the Pyramid Stage on Friday night, she spoke out against the ruling as she introduced her song Your Power, which explores people abusing their power.
Seated alongside her brother and co-writer, Finneas O’Connell, she said: “The song we’re about to do is, I think, one of the favourites that we’ve written and it’s about the concept of power and how we need to always remember how not to abuse it. “And today is a really, really dark day for women in the US.
I’m just going to say that as I cannot bear to think about it any longer in this moment.” This appearance was particularly poignant for the singer as she became Glastonbury Festival’s youngest ever solo headliner.
