May 3, 2019

US pop sensation Billie Eilish took a trip through an Auckland beach on horseback during her recent visit to New Zealand.

The 17-year-old singer visited Muriwai Beach, on Auckland's west coast, before performing a one-night-only show at Auckland's Spark Arena on April 24, Universal Music New Zealand said in a statement.

In the video, the pop star revealed she worked as a counsellor at a horse camp for two years and "did line jumping and everything, all that", but added that it was "a while ago."
