Performers may sometimes pull or touch their ear during a performance due to a number of reasons. It is often interpreted as a reaction to feedback from the monitors, which can be quite loud and jarring. However, there could also be other reasons such as a momentary distraction or habit, or an intentional act to emphasize the emotional content of the song. It is important to consider the context and the performer’s behavior as a whole to understand the meaning behind this action.
