This week also saw the singer-songwriter announce the cancellation of her 2020-2021 Where Do We Go? World Tour dates.

After rescheduling her dates for late 2020 and 2021, the Everything I Wanted star has now decided to cancel the dates entirely and put money back in the hands of her fans.

Taking to Twitter, she wrote: "hi guys

"i wish that I could have seen you on tour this year. i've missed performing for you and being on stage so much i can't even tell you."

“we’ve tried as many different scenarios as possible for the tour but none are possible and, although I know so many of you want to hold onto your tickets and vip passes, the best thing we can do for everyone is to get the money back into your hands as soon as we can.

The singer added: "keep an eye on your email for more info from your point of purchase and when we're ready and it's safe we'll let you know when everyone will be able to purchase tickets again for the next tour. (sic)"

She signed off: "i love you so much, stay safe, drink lots of water, wear a mask (sic)."

Billie Eilish's World Tour included a string of shows in the UK, including three nights at Manchester Arena and four at The O2 Arena in London.
