In the midst of a sold-out tour supporting her hit album HIT ME HARD AND SOFT, Billie Eilish stepped onto a much smaller stage last night (Oct. 19) in her second appearance on Saturday Night Live in less than a year.
The artist performed her smash single “BIRDS OF A FEATHER” in tandem with her brother and collaborator Finneas amid a set made to look like a bright blue sky. The vibe, and the lighting, were much darker during her second song, the slowly building “Wildflower.”

Elsewhere during the Michael Keaton-hosted episode, Eilish also made a cameo in a skit skewering TikTok addiction, handing cast member Bowen Yang $10,000 to stop singing.
Last night’s visit followed a December 2023 booking on SNL‘s Christmas episode, during which Eilish sang “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” and her Barbie soundtrack contribution “What Was I Made For?,” which later won Song of the Year at the Grammys.
Eilish will be off the road until Nov. 2 in Atlanta and will wrap the year with five sold-out shows in late December at Kia Forum in her hometown of Los Angeles.
