The excitement at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles reached new heights on Friday night when SZA was joined on stage by Justin Bieber, much to the delight of the sold-out crowd. The surprise appearance had fans buzzing as the two artists performed their collaborative hit “Snooze.” Both singers donned all-black outfits for the performance, which showcased their undeniable chemistry — SZA affectionately cupped Bieber’s chin while he expressed his admiration with kisses on her hand and a graceful twirl.
As the duet concluded, the audience erupted in applause, particularly when the performers shared a heartfelt hug before departing via a slow-moving lift that descended from the stage.
Justin Bieber’s involvement with SZA’s music dates back to the music video for “Snooze,” which he featured in alongside other talents like Young Mazino and Woody McClain. Furthermore, he lent his voice to an acoustic remix of the track, allowing him to shine with new vocal arrangements.
This performance marked Bieber’s first stadium appearance since Coachella 2024, where he captivated audiences with surprise duets alongside Tems and Wizkid on their popular track “Essence.” Despite previously scrapping his Purpose world tour in 2017, he has made a notable comeback, having toured again in 2022 with the Justice World Tour.
SZA’s Grand National Tour, which she is co-headlining with rapper Kendrick Lamar, will continue until August 9, featuring a series of performances in major cities including Las Vegas, Chicago, and Detroit, before she takes her talents overseas to cities like Frankfurt, Amsterdam, Paris, and London.
This collaboration not only showcases the synergy between two major pop icons but also reflects the evolving landscape of live music, where surprise guest performances create unforgettable moments for fans. As both artists continue to push boundaries in their careers, the excitement for what’s next in their musical journeys remains high.
