Justin Bieber brought out five special guests during his Coachella headline slot
A stripped-back ninety-minute set saw Bieber search YouTube for his earliest recordings live on stage.
Justin Bieber has delivered a career-spanning headline performance at Coachella, marking his first US live appearance since the 'Justice' world tour in 2022.
Taking to the stage on 11th April for a set lasting around ninety minutes, Bieber kicked things off with material from 'Swag' and 'Swag II' before delving deep into his back catalogue. Dressed in shorts and a zip-up hoodie, the singer kept the production minimal, spending much of the performance alone on stage.
One of the most notable moments saw Bieber pull up a laptop, sit on a stool, and invite viewers of the Coachella livestream to request songs via the chat. Browsing YouTube for his own earliest recordings, he performed 'Baby', 'That Should Be Me' and 'Favourite Girl' — the latter marking its first live outing since 2013. During this portion of the evening, he also screened footage of himself walking into glass doors and falling on stage, alongside his early covers of Chris Brown (boo - Ed) and Ne-Yo that first caught the attention of record labels back in 2008.
Throughout the evening, Bieber welcomed a string of collaborators to the stage. The Kid Laroi joined him earlier in the set, while Dijon, Tems, Wizkid and Mk.gee all appeared during the closing stretch. Separately at the festival, Geese worked a rendition of 'Baby' into their own performance as a nod to Bieber's headline appearance.
