Justin Bieber Shares Intimate Moments with Hailey at Coachella

Even with a global audience of millions, Justin Bieber remains focused on his most important supporter: his wife, Hailey Bieber. The singer offered a candid look into his personal life on Tuesday (April 21), sharing a heartwarming Instagram post that began with a sweet, intimate moment of the couple sharing a kiss backstage at the second weekend of Coachella.

The carousel of images captured the relaxed, behind-the-scenes atmosphere of the festival. Beyond the romantic snapshot with Hailey, Bieber shared glimpses of his downtime, including photos of himself lounging on a large backstage couch and enjoying a quiet cup of tea. The post also highlighted his musical collaborations, featuring a moment with surprise guest SZA, who joined him for an acoustic remix of her hit song “Snooze.”

Bieber also celebrated his connection with rapper Big Sean, who joined the headliner on stage for performances of the 2012 Believe track “As Long As You Love Me” and the 2015 Purpose favorite “No Pressure.” Big Sean expressed his appreciation in the comments, writing, “What a journey it’s been, bro.” The post included a nostalgic throwback photo of the two artists sharing a stage during the Believe era.

Following the festival, Big Sean took to X to publicly praise Bieber’s dedication to his craft. “Before I get off stage, I just wanna say you know God has his hands on you,” Sean wrote. “You dedicated your whole life to this, you gave us your whole life. I think I speak for everyone when I say thank you, bro. Directly or indirectly, I think you showed us what purpose was.”

The impact of Bieber’s triumphant Coachella return has been reflected in his streaming numbers. His 12-year-old album Journals recently debuted at No. 111 on the Billboard 200, marking the first official chart appearance for the project. This was part of a broader surge in his catalog, which saw a 172% increase in on-demand U.S. streams during the tracking week of April 10-16, according to Luminate.
