Central News Agency (CNA) - Taipei, April 16 - Western pop superstar Justin Bieber recently performed at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in the United States. This major stage performance, after a four-year absence, has sparked global fan discussions, not only driving a surge in music streaming but also setting the record for the highest viewership on Coachella's official Instagram video.
In 2010, the song 'Baby' made the then 15-year-old Justin Bieber the world's hottest teenager. However, the pressure of superstardom led him astray, resulting in erratic behavior and criticism. He once stepped away from the entertainment industry but later successfully returned. Unfortunately, in 2022, he had to pause work and rest due to complications from Ramsay Hunt syndrome, a form of shingles, only making a comeback to the music scene last July with a new album.
Bieber performed as the headliner at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival on April 12th, Taipei time. Dressed casually, he appeared without elaborate stage sets, performing songs from his new album in a purely simple style. During the performance, Bieber took out a laptop and played past classic songs like 'That Should Be Me' and 'Sorry' on YouTube. The segment where he performed 'Baby' alongside his 16-year-old self also brought many fans back to memories.
Clips of Bieber's performance went viral on social media, and his music streams saw a significant increase. According to Rolling Stone magazine, Justin Bieber's global streams on the music platform Spotify increased by 250%. His 2012 hit single 'Beauty And A Beat,' a collaboration with Nicki Minaj, even topped the global charts. Furthermore, Bieber had 12 songs charting in the latest Spotify Global Top 50 Daily list.
Additionally, a video on the official Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival Instagram, showing Bieber crouching on stage with the audience watching fireworks at the end of his performance, garnered 140 million views, setting a new record for the highest viewership in Coachella's Instagram history.
