Justin Bieber has officially returned with his seventh studio album, SWAG, released on July 11, 2025. Featuring 20 tracks and collaborations with Gunna, Sexyy Red, and Cash Cobain, the album rollout included eye-catching billboards in Reykjavik and Los Angeles, sparking major buzz.
Despite the new music energy, the Coachella community remains cautious about Bieber’s presence at this year’s festival. A viral Reddit post titled “Bieberchella? 👀” on r/coachella started speculation after Pop Base tweeted about the album, but fans mostly reacted with skepticism and concern.
- Many cited past festival fiascos involving artists like Ye and Frank Ocean, doubting Goldenvoice would risk a headline with Bieber amid worries about last-minute cancellations.
- Concerns surfaced over Bieber’s health and recent erratic public behavior, including his April 2025 Coachella appearances dancing energetically but disoriented and visibly smoking cannabis.
- Fans expressed fears over potential onstage incidents and urged GV to avoid “jaded pop stars” prone to unpredictable situations.
Though Bieber did make a brief guest appearance during Coachella 2024 alongside Tems and Wizkid, his 2025 involvement has not been confirmed. Goldenvoice and Coachella organizers have made no announcements regarding his booking this year.
For now, Bieber’s SWAG release injects fresh vitality into his career, but whether this translates into a Coachella 2025 headline or set remains up in the air — with fans watching closely and opinions sharply divided.
