Lizzo praises Justin Bieber’s ‘transcendent’ Coachella performance

Lizzo has gushed over Justin Bieber’s “beautiful” performance at Coachella over the weekend.
Returning to the stage on Saturday night, the Canadian superstar delivered a string of his biggest hits, including Baby and Never Say Never, at the California music and arts festival.

Among the concertgoers was Lizzo – real name Melissa Jefferson – who had nothing but praise for Justin and his musical guests, including The Kid Laroi, Wizkid, Tems, and Dijon.

“I watched a popstar who grew up in front of the world fully transcend into his artistry last night. I watched someone who gave us his all, his whole life… finally nourish hisself (sic),” she wrote on Instagram. “I have no pictures or videos because I was fully present in the moment. Justin invited us and whoever chose to come with him was blessed with a beautiful ride.”

Lizzo also shared a photo of Justin standing in front of a projection of one of his early YouTube videos.

“When you use your gift for God, it will make people uncomfortable. But that’s OK because the ones who stick beside you will feel the love. Thank you @lilbieber,” the 37-year-old continued.

Justin has not publicly responded to Lizzo’s heartfelt message.

However, the Daisies hitmaker’s wife, Hailey Bieber, posted a string of heart emojis in the comments section.

And Katy Perry also enjoyed seeing Justin showcase the old YouTube clips.

“Thank God he has Premium. I don’t wanna see no ads,” the Roar hitmaker joked in an Instagram video posted from the crowd.

Earlier, Lizzo shared a video of herself and a friend at The Strokes gig.

“Queen of Coachella 2026,” the Juice hitmaker declared in the caption.

Lizzo recently completed work on her fifth studio album, Love in Real Life.

A release date has not yet been confirmed.
