Fans of American pop singer Billie Eilish have taken to social media to criticise the singer after it was revealed that standing tickets for her next arena gigs were being offered for more than £100 apiece.
Next year, the 22-year-old will embark on a series of performances in the UK and Ireland, which will include five nights at London's O2 Arena, two nights in Glasgow, four nights in Manchester, and two nights in Dublin.
But, when tickets went on sale, a lot of fans were shocked by the cost, calling the amount "ridiculous" in the face of a cost-of-living crisis.
One fan, who thinks the ticket prices are too high, tweeted: “I love Billie Eilish to pieces but the ticket prices for the tour are just ridiculous. “I don't expect any artist to charge minimum, but at least make the tickets accessible to people. It's creating a barrier to the music industry for so many fans.”

A third user said: “Just seen the Billie Eilish ticket prices. Wow. The sooner the public stop paying these prices, the better. If it keeps going, 3 years from now, you’ll be paying 200 quid for a simple standing ticket to every arena show.”
