SZA fans became Beliebers on Friday night when Justin Bieber joined the five-time Grammy winner on stage in Los Angeles.

The sold-out crowd erupted when the pop star appeared alongside SZA at the SoFi Stadium for a surprise performance of their 2023 collaboration, “Snooze.” Both singers wore all black for the duet, which found SZA cupping Bieber’s chin and the “Love Yourself” singer responding by planting kisses on her hand, then executing a twirl.

The crowd’s cheers intensified as the pair capped their performance with a hug and slowly disappeared courtesy of a slow-moving lift that lowered them from the stage.

Bieber popped up as one of SZA’s love interests in the 2023 music video for “Snooze” — which also featured Young Mazino, Woody McClain, and Benny Blanco — and sang on an acoustic remix of the track, contributing background vocals and replacing SZA as the main vocalist for its second verse.

Bieber joined SZA for the second of her three shows at SoFi as part of her Grand National Tour. The singer is co-headlining the stadium-only tour with rapper — and recent Super Bowl halftime performer — Kendrick Lamar.

Friday’s appearance marks the first time Bieber has performed in a stadium show since Coachella 2024, where he surprised fans to sing with Tems and Wizkid on their 2020 hit “Essence.”

Bieber scrapped his planned Purpose world tour in 2017 but returned to the road in 2022 for the Justice World Tour in support of his last studio album, Justice, which he released the year before.

SZA’s Grand National Tour runs through August 9 and features stops in Las Vegas, Chicago, and Detroit before the singer heads overseas for shows in Frankfurt, Amsterdam, Paris, and London.

WHEN A FATHER TURNED HIS GRIEF INTO SOUND — AND BROKE EVERY HEART IN THE ROOM. It was supposed to be just another show — lights, applause, familiar chords. But when Joe Walsh walked to the microphone that night, something in the air shifted. His hands trembled as he gripped his guitar, and the crowd sensed it: this wasn’t performance; it was confession. Then came the first notes of “Song for Emma.” A ballad written not for charts, but for a daughter who would never grow old. Walsh’s voice cracked on the first verse — not from age, but from memory. “I can see your face forever in my mind,” he sang, and the room seemed to stop breathing. You could almost feel the space between father and child, life and afterlife, tightening with every chord. Some said later that the air itself changed — as if sound had become light, as if love refused to die quietly. One man in the audience whispered, “He’s not singing to us. He’s singing to her.” When the final note faded, the silence wasn’t emptiness. It was sacred — a moment when everyone understood that grief, in the hands of a musician, can become grace. And somewhere beyond the lights, perhaps a small voice was listening — smiling, as her father turned sorrow into something eternal.
