Sabrina Carpenter, Justin Bieber spark comparison over headline set
American singer Sabrina Carpenter and Justin Bieber take over Coachella 2026 stage
Justin Bieber and Sabrina Carpenter’s headlining set at the Coachella 2026 have turned out to be the most anticipated headlining sets.
The 26-year-old musician was applauded for her extraordinary set design, back up dancers and efforts for the performance.
On the other hand, Justin made a minimalistic appearance with no back up performers to accompany him.
Instead of singing his hit tracks live for the musical event, he chose to play them on YouTube and test how far back his fans can go.
The two were compared for their shows with many calling out Justin for putting in a lot less efforts for her major comeback at the stage.
One of the X users was shocked when netizens defended the Grammy winner, while “they’re criticizing Sabrina who put on a spectacle.”
Another netizen called out the Baby crooner for putting on “a trashy show,” appreciating the Espresso hitmaker.
Meanwhile, a user shared their opinion that the Please Please Please singer “performed for the crowd” and Justin “performed for his childhood fans that grew up loving him… both ate.”
Did Justin Bieber break record with Coachella performance?
It was reported that the STAY singer’s video of Coachella set crossed “62.2 million,” becoming the most watched performance of this year from the event.
