Justin Bieber Surprises Fans at Coachella With Billie Eilish as His 'One Less Lonely Girl'
Justin Bieber took to the main stage again for Coachella's second weekend with another buzzy performance. This time, he brought out a special guest for one of his most iconic hits, and it was a familiar face: Billie Eilish, who became his "One Less Lonely Girl."
Full Circle Moment For Eilish, A Long-time Belieber
It was a full-circle moment for the Grammy-winning singer, who had previously spoken about being a devoted Belieber. (She was even photographed with posters of Bieber covering her childhood bedroom walls.)
Then in 2019, Eilish met her idol at Coachella. Eilish and Bieber later collaborated on a remix of her hit single, "Bad Guy."
Fast forward to the desert this weekend, she was chosen as his "One Less Lonely Girl" at Coachella 2026 - complete with a whispered, "Only you, shawty," in her ear.

After the performance, Eilish appeared emotional, nearly in tears.
Hailey Bieber was spotted encouraging her to go onstage and supporting her afterward.
As far as how deep Eilish's fandom goes, Vanity Fair once reported, she was nearly sent to therapy over her childhood devotion to the Swag singer. Her mother was quoted as saying he caused her "so much pain."

Bieber's first-weekend set drew praise (and a share of criticism) from fans and critics, but it definitely accomplished one thing: it got people talking, and the numbers do not lie.
Putting on a performance that the desert had never seen before, the singer set aside a high-production spectacle and opted for a pared-down approach. Equipped with a MacBook and YouTube clips from the early days of his career, he took song requests and sang along to videos he posted on the platform before his rise to fame.
Bieber reportedly earned $10 million for his two Coachella 2026 weekend sets, making him one of the highest-paid performers in the festival's history.
The performance also marked his first in the U.S. since 2022's Justice World Tour.
During the first weekend, he brought out guests like Wizkid, Tems, The Kid LAROI, Dijon, and Mk.gee.
In the second weekend, guests included SZA, Sexyy Red, Big Sean, and of course, Billie Eilish, with Dijon returning for "Devotion."
Fans are now hoping a tour is in the works.
On his website, it reads:
"Sorry, no shows currently.

RSVP."
For now, fans will have to wait. But it's not a "no" - maybe just a not now?
