Ariana Grande headlined the first weekend of this year’s Coachella festival and oh boy, did she do her job right.
The fans are already calling it Arichella since she made such a huge impact by bringing NSYNC, Nicki Minaj and P Diddy on stage during her extraordinary performance.
Some fans even said that this is Ariana Grande’s world and we are just living in it because she lets us. But let’s start from the beginning.
NYSC Collaboration
The singer promised something special a while back as the news broke about her headlining the festival but no one knew what she had in mind.
The long-anticipated weekend came and we were all left breathless.
Last Sunday night, the popular singer took the stage to perform for a packed crowd at the 2019 Coachella Music and Arts Festival. During her performance, Ariana was joined by four members of the iconic boy band NSYNC, JC Chasez, Lance Bass, Joey Fatone and Chris Kirkpatrick. The guys sang their famous hit “Tearin’ Up My Heart,” and Ariana even joined in on their signature choreography.
“This has been a dream of ours. Thank you for sharing this with us,” JC told the sold-out crowd before making their way off stage.
Ariana shared her excitement at social media explaining she was a huge fan of the band and went to their concerts with her mom when she was just 5 years old. They are collaborating on a new song but everything is under wraps for now.
Justin Timberlake was absent for the night but there is no bad blood. He is busy wrapping up his Man of the Woods tour.
Other Guest Appearances
Later, P Diddy and Mase joined Ariana Grande to blast through the classic Notorious B.I.G. single “No Money No Problems”. Then Nicki Minaj joined for “Big Bang” and “Side to Side” performances but the show continues since Ariana will also headline the next weekend’s second leg of Coachella.
From the guest appearance, singing, choreography, her style and an amazing set, this girl does not disappoint.
She even paid tribute to her late ex-boyfriend Mac Miller wearing his Pittsburgh Steelers jersey backstage. The couple was last seen in public at Coachella 2018 before they broke it off and he died of a drug overdose soon after. Grande felt the need to bring a piece of him at this major career milestone.
We can’t wait to see what she has in mind for the next weekend. This girl simply knows how to deliver and we applaud her for that.
