Zendaya Makes Surprise Musical Comeback at Coachella and Expresses Gratitude to Fans
Zendaya expressed her gratitude to fans after making a surprise musical comeback at the 2023 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in Indio, California.
The Euphoria star joined Labrinth on stage during the festival’s second weekend, and the duo captivated the audience with their performance of the Emmy-nominated hit “I’m Tired” and “All for Us” from the HBO drama.
After her first performance in seven years, Zendaya took to Instagram Stories to reflect on the experience. “Thank you to my brother @labrinth for inviting me and giving me the most beautiful safe space to be on stage again,” she wrote. “And to the crowd tonight… Wow. My heart is full, I can’t thank you enough for the love I received tonight, made my nerves melt away. I’m so grateful.”
The Emmy Award-winning actress also shared a video in which she thanked the British artist for orchestrating the “last-minute” Coachella surprise, resulting in a “magical night.” Zendaya exclaimed, “I have never heard screaming like that in my entire life. As soon as I turned the corner, I couldn’t hear anything. I couldn’t hear anything but you guys, so, I’m sorry. I don’t know what happened, I don’t know what I sounded like, but I just was like, ‘You know what? I’m just gonna have fun, and whatever.'”
Zendaya concluded, “It was so special, and everybody was singing along, and it was just — it was so cool. So, so, cool. Thank you all for welcoming me back on that stage with open arms. It’s been a very long time, so I appreciate it.”
In an Instagram Stories post, Zendaya said, “I just wanna say thank you again — I have never heard screaming like that in my entire life, as soon as I turned the corner, I couldn’t hear anything but you guys. — Thank you all for welcoming me back on stage with open arms.”
