Bishop Briggs has become the first woman to ever headline iHeart Radio‘s ALTer EGO. Last night, Briggs took the stage at the Forum in Los Angeles, knowing she was making history.

Briggs shared the stage with other scene favorites such as twenty one pilots, Muse, Weezer, Rise Against and the Killers.

“Thank you so much,” Briggs says onstage during her set. “We only have two more songs, so I want whatever I say in this little moment important and hopefully special. But something that is really exciting that I just want to say ‘thanks’ for is — I’m the woman on this lineup. I’m gonna try not to cry.”

However, Briggs later admitted that she couldn’t hold her emotions inside.

You can watch a video of her performance at ALTer EGO below.

This is not the first time Bishop Briggs was a symbol of empowerment and inspiration. The singer recently shaved her head to stand in solidarity with her friend Arax who just started chemotherapy.
