So they can hear themselves sing and play, which is almost impossible to hear due to the crowd noise and the unique amplified and mixed sound that is being heard by the audience. Often due to Behind the Scenes mixers, a performer can get confused by what they are doing in comparison to the behind the scenes mix that is bring produced for the audience. Simply put, they hear thru their earpiece the raw music they themselves are producing before electronics gets hold of it.

Professorthat is their monitor. when you perform, the sound that goes into the audience is called the "house mix", and it is balanced to produce the best sound for the audience.
but the musicians need to hear themselves, so usually they put speakers on stage facing the musicians (they are on the ground, in front, at an angle). the sound that comes out of those speakers is the "monitor mix". for bigger concerts, instead of speakers on the floor, the musicians have a custom earpiece fitted to their ear, usually it's wireless, attached to a receiver in their pocket or on their back, and the earpiece acts as the monitor.
the sound engineer does a separate mix for the musicians (sometimes different ones for the different musicians) to let them hear themselves and everyone else in the band. we singers usually want to hear ourselves very well, even if it's louder than the audience hears it. that way the musicians can hear a different balance of instruments, get what they need to play, and the sound engineer can adjust the audience mix in whatever way works.
only the big concerts use those in-ear monitors. if you go to a club, you'll see speakers on the floor doing the same thing.

What do singers wear?
They are probably using in-ear monitors. In-ear monitors are small speakers; the good ones are actually fitted to the singer's ears. They have a wireless belt pack that is controlled from the monitor position, usually off to one side of the stage. Monitors (whether in-ear or on stage) allow the musician to hear what they want. The sound on stage is usually "different" from what the audience (front of house) hears. For example, when I perform, I like my vocals pretty hot (loud) in my ears, my own guitar, bass guitar, snare, and other vocals. Another musician may want to hear vocals, keyboards, and kick drum. Each performer is hearing what they want to hear in their own monitors; so the sound on stage doesn't have the same mix as the one being heard by the audience.

What is the ear piece in singers ears for?
Yes, they wear them ... singers and instrumentalists in a band need to hear the other members so that keep the same tempo and thus be able to blend their voices with the others. Over the powerful amps and crowds they couldn't hear themselves singing without these aids.
