Justin Bieber Hit The Stage At Coachella And Streamed His Greatest Hits From A Laptop
Unreal move from Justin Bieber as he took to the stage for his highly-anticipated set at Coachella last night.
The 32-year-old singer kicked off the set by performing a string of his new songs, but then sat down at a laptop and started streaming his classics on YouTube, and then started looking up memes.


The set even included awkward pauses due to buffering issues.
Bieber is now catching some flak from attendees and people online who think he could have put in a little more effort, especially after being paid $10 million to be there.
At one point he even watched the old viral “Got him!” meme:

Classic.
To be fair, while some critics called it the “worst Coachella performance of all time,” a lot of people still seemed to enjoy the set. He played all his old classic YouTube videos on a big screen and sang along to them, which some appreciated as a more “intimate” performance rather than going to the trouble of getting backing dancers, sorting out dance routines, or any kind of big stage presentation at all.
At the end of the day, he’s one of the biggest mega stars on the planet, so he can get away with this sort of thing. After all there were still some cool moments, like harmonising with a video of his younger self singing a Chris Brown classic:

Besides, do you remember how much he spent (and lost) on that Bored Ape meme? No wonder he wants to save some cash on the set. Looks like he killed it, either way. That’s star power right there!
