\n\tIn the aftermath of a scary moment at Billie Eilish<\/a>\u2018s recent Miami concert, one person in her fandom gained overnight fame due to how fast she sprang into action to defend the pop star \u2014 and now, Eilish is showing her gratitude.<\/p>\n

\n\tLast week, 18-year-old concertgoer Aniyah didn\u2019t hesitate when another concertgoer grabbed Eilish\u2019s arm and slammed her into the barricade at the singer\u2019s first of three October performances at the Kaseya Center. As captured in numerous videos<\/a> from the night, the young fan \u2014 who was wearing a red bandana at the time, making her easy to spot in the chaos \u2014 chased down the culprit as he was being pulled away by security personnel and fiercely scolded him.<\/p>\n

\n\tA few days later, Eilish sent Aniyah a sweatshirt and other goodies as a thank-you for stepping in, as captured in a photo posted Sunday (Oct. 12) to the fan\u2019s Instagram Story. \u201cthank you so much for the gifts billie!!!\u201d Aniyah wrote, stamping it with several heart emojis. <\/p>\n

\n\tEilish is just the latest to recognize Aniyah for her fearlessness. In just a few days, Aniyah has gained more than half a million followers on TikTok, with the nine-time Grammy winner\u2019s fanbase seeking her out online to praise her for protecting their idol. Finneas also shouted out Aniyah<\/a> on his Instagram Story shortly after the incident occurred, writing, \u201cRed bandana girl from last night\u2019s show rules.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe pop star has not publicly commented on what happened, but local police confirmed to ABC News<\/a> that the aggressive concertgoer was immediately ejected from the Kaseya Center. No further action was taken after that.<\/p>\n

\n\tEilish has since closed out her run of shows in Miami. Her next stop on the Hit Me Hard and Soft Tour \u2014 which kicked off more than a year ago in September 2024 \u2014 will take place at the Kia Center in Orlando, Fla., on Tuesday (Oct. 14).<\/p>\n
