Ariana Grande brings out *NSYNC and Nicki Minaj at Coachella
Ariana Grande took over Coachella on Sunday night with a captivating performance of several of her recent chart-topping hits.
The "thank u, next" singer, 25, brought out a few special guests during the first of her two headlining sets at the music festival, including *NSYNC, Nicki Minaj and Diddy.
“Coachella I’ve been rehearsing my whole f------ life for this moment,” she told the crowd during her set. “Make some noise for *NSYNC!”
Band members Lance Bass, Chris Kirkpatrick, JC Chasez and Joey Fatone joined Grande onstage for a performance of their 1997 hit, "Tearin' Up My Heart."
The group also sang a mashup of Grande's hit "break up with your girlfriend, i'm bored" and their 2000 song "It Makes Me Ill."
The band's former front man Justin Timerberlake did not take part in the Coachella performance but congratulated the group. "You guys killed it last night," he wrote in an Instagram post shared the next day.
Another highlight of her set? Nicki Minaj joining Grande to perform two of their collaborations, “Side to Side” and “Bang Bang.”
Diddy and Mase appeared for a performance of “Mo Money Mo Problems” with Grande.
Another noteworthy moment of the night was Zedd bringing Katy Perry out during his set to perform their new song "365."
Selena Gomez appeared at the festival on Friday to perform “Taki Taki” during DJ Snake’s set with Cardi B and Ozuna.
Donald Glover, whose stage name is Childish Gambino, paid tribute to his late father, Mac Miller and Nispey Hussle during his set on Friday night.
"What I'm starting to realize ... is all we really have is memories at the end of the day, that's all we are," he told the crowd.
"All we are really is really, like, data," he continued. "You pass onto your kids, you can pass it on to your friends, your family. The problem with us, millennials, like everybody here, we have so much data, like, we know what's going to happen."
Glover recently starred alongside Rihanna in Amazon Prime movie "Guava Island," which debuted at Coachella.
