Justin Bieber was spotted chilling with Twitch sensation Plaqueboymax at Yeat’s Coachella 2025 set, and the internet promptly short-circuited. No one knows if this was the start of an epic collab, a random vibe sesh, or just Bieber deep in his "experimental era." One minute, Yeat's bass is shaking the desert; the next, you’ve got Justin Bieber and a Plaqueboymax in a bromance montage mid-mosh pit.
Fans were divided: some were excited, some perplexed, and some merely wondering if Coachella 2025 is officially the Met Gala for unexpected celebrity collaborations. Either way, Justin Bieber, Plaqueboymax, and Yeat's pairing was messy genius.
In the now-viral clip, Justin Bieber walks up to Plaqueboymax at Yeat's Coachella 2025 performance. Bieber hugs him quickly, and the two share about 2.5 words before going their separate ways like enigmatic NPCs in a side quest.
Nobody has any idea what was said, but internet lip-readers have posted theories ranging from "Yo, you game?" to "Nice fit, king." The clip takes only 8 seconds, but it has generated 8,000 memes, 200 emotional music TikTok edits, and a single 3-hour livestream named "Breaking Down the Bieber x Plaqueboymax Cinematic Universe."
Twitter's already called it "the most bizarre crossover since SpongeBob encountered David Hasselhoff," and honestly? They're not off the mark. Coachella 2025, thanks for making us question. As soon as the video went viral, someone (@IsehReports) took to his X account and commented:
"Crazy linkup"
Justin Bieber's linking up with Plaqueboymax at Coachella 2025 was the sort of moment that shattered heads around the web. It was so random, so gorgeous; it was like the festival gods just spun a celebrity roulette wheel and went, "Yeah, this works."
Fans are now sure this was either the start of a Twitch collab, some secret mixtape agreement, or Bieber just thought Max was Yeat's cousin. Either way, this hug has more backstory than the MCU, and we, the internet, are completely invested.
In an era where Coachella is famous for surprise sets and crazy guest appearances, this fleeting but iconic interaction somehow stole the entire weekend.
No show, no reveal, just a hug, a micro-conversation, and straight-up meme material. It's the type of Coachella moment that requires no explanation, just reaction videos and bewildered tweets.
Before fandoms could even blink, the internet did what it does best: spiralled into complete chaos. The Justin Bieber x Plaqueboymax Coachella appearance put everyone into detective mode, meme mode, and 'delusion mode' simultaneously. TikTok edits fell within minutes. Someone likely began fanfiction.
And naturally, Twitter (sorry, X) went wild like this was the pop culture Avengers gathering. The reactions? Completely unhinged. Stunningly unhinged. So now, let's take a walk through the wild, emotional, and sometimes unhinged minds of the fans who witnessed this arguably iconic crossover. Buckle up.
Netizens react as Plaqueboymax and Justin Bieber hug at Coachella 2025
Some people dealt with the mayhem the only way they knew how, by making jokes quicker than Plaqueboymax could get a stream booted up. In minutes, the comments section was transformed into a comedy club, with punchlines being thrown harder than Yeat's bass drops:
"Why we say hugging like they not just greeting each other," a user @destroynectar hilariously commented.
"Oh the music they would make would be phenomenal," another user @sipofthetruth hilarioulsy commented.
"Plaqueboymax just got initiated," a netizen @Basedcampp sarcastically expressed.
Others weren't even attempting to rationalize, they were merely commenting for sport, much like Olympic-class nonsense posting. Someone just wrote "vibes" and split, as if that clarified anything about Justin Bieber embracing a streamer at Coachella.
"diabolical linkup," a user @racoondogchoper hilariously commented.
"Crossover content we didn't see coming! Iconic duo, tbh," another user @Cliffinkent hilariously commented.
"This dude really everywhere nowadays," a netizen @sorealCee sarcastically commented.
The peanut gallery was out in full swing, with individuals making comments left and right, contributing to the chaos without so much as an explanation. The reactions were all a combination of random jokes, confusion, and straight-up internet gold, making the entire moment a viral spectacle:
"JB is turning into YE," a user @banksmetax hilarioulsy commented.
"You never know what is up with Justin," another user @brattykyra_ hilariously commented.
"That hug just boosted his net worth," another netizen @playlistvault sarcastically commented.
"Bro can’t go anywhere without it getting clipped," a netizen @Bovada_Casino sarcastically wrote.
Plaqueboymax's reaction after he meets with Justin Bieber at Coachella 2025
After his unforgettable experience with Justin Bieber at Coachella, Plaqueboymax couldn't help but share the experience with his stream, still trying to get his head around how wild it all was.
He recalled how Justin Bieber spotted him and flashed him an instant flex move like they were friends. Max, acting his usual carefree self, simply screamed out to Justin Bieber like saying hi to one of the world's most famous pop sensations was just an everyday part of the Coachella experience. Plaqueboymax said:
"He seen me and like flexed, and then was like I fwu bro... Shoutout to Justin Bieber."
The whole scene was this gorgeous coming together of worlds: Twitch streamer meets global pop star, something so unlikely and yet strangely fitting to the frenetic energy of the festival. The way Max explained it was that it sounded like something from some unexpected side quest in the crazy game of celebrity life.
Did Justin Bieber perform at Coachella 2025?
While there is no word on whether or not Justin Bieber did indeed play at Coachella 2025, he certainly did come through to get a feel, and, indeed, he did get a vibe. Spotted at Yeat's set with Hailey Bieber, Justin was snapped living his best life, completely lost in the beats as if he were headlining himself.
No mic, no stage, just pure, unadulterated energy as he danced to Yeat's bass like it was his show. It was the kind of moment that made people wonder, "Is this a surprise concert, or is Justin just in town for the vibe?" Either way, he was giving the crowd a show, even if it was only his dancing.
Justin Bieber crashed out and confronted the paparazzi
Justin Bieber woke up one morning and, in a hurry, determined it was not a good morning, particularly if you were holding a camera. Caught on tape, Bieber unleashed a tirade of angry curses at the paparazzi gathered outside a café, reminding them in no friendly terms that he wasn't up for their harassment.
Forget Good Morning America, this was more like "Bad Morning, Get Outta My Face" vibes. The pop star was finished with the photo shoots and made that very clear.
There are some days that we all feel like that, trying to make it through the morning without being the focal point. One of the reporters greeted him with 'Good Morning" as all sane people do, and Justin Bieber replied:
"No! Not good morning! You already know. Why are you here?"
Justin Bieber continued to say furiously:
"Money, money, money, money, money,” while mimicking the classic “pay me” hand gesture. “Get outta here, bro. Money, that’s all you want. You don’t care about human beings.” Visibly agitated, he carried on, “That’s all you care about, guys. Is money. You don’t care about people. Only money. … You don’t care about human beings."
Justin Bieber spewed some choice words, but the paparazzi didn't bat an eyelash, quietly continued photographing like there was a section in the company handbook. There wasn't a standoff; there was a one-way tantrum reciprocated by expert-level bland stares and unhurried lenses.
Ultimately, Justin Bieber and Plaqueboymax provided us the Coachella crossover we didn't know we needed but now can't live without. One's a worldwide pop sensation, the other's a Twitch terror with lore levels out of this world, and somehow, their short, crazy encounter is more internet effect than some of the headliners.
Whatever it was, be it a simulation glitch or the beginning of the most bizarre festival bromance on record, here's one thing that's for sure: Coachella 2025 wasn't prepared, nor were we.
