What did he mean?
Pop singer Zara Larrson shared her candid reaction to Justin Bieber’s Coachella 2026 performance via TikTok on Sunday.
“It’s giving let’s smoke and watch YouTube,” the 28-year-old wrote over footage of herself and her friends streaming Saturday’s headlining set from the Indio, California, music festival.
The group laughed as Bieber, 32, sat on a stool onstage browsing YouTube and reacting to viral memes.
After the pop star said “deez nuts” into his microphone and recreated a decade-old “double rainbow” video, Larsson asked, “What the f–k?”
She wrote in her caption that Bieber is in her “dream blunt rotation.”
Larsson took to Threads to clarify she was not “hating” on the show.
“People are … projecting,” the songwriter insisted. “Lol I was vibing harddddddd.”
Katy Perry also made headlines over the weekend for mocking Bieber’s controversial performance on the main stage.
The “I Kissed a Girl” singer, 41, posted an Instagram video of herself in the audience quipping, “Thank God he’s got premium.”
Perry, who attended with boyfriend Justin Trudeau, joked that she didn’t “want to see no ads.”
Bieber has yet to address negative comments about his set — and many of the Grammy winner’s fans have come to his defense.
One X user dubbed him a “mastermind,” pointing out that Bieber’s YouTube segment was a callback to how he became famous.
Hailey Bieber showed her support for her husband by rocking basketball shorts monogrammed with their last name, as well as a “Future Mrs. Bieber” tee.
Justin gave her and their 1-year-old son, Jack, a sweet shoutout during the performance as he sang songs off his most recent “SWAG” and “SWAG II” albums.
The “Baby” singer, who earned a reported $10 million for the Coachella gig, is set to take the stage again next weekend.
