Coachella wrapped up this weekend and it featured one epic performance that no one saw coming. Zendaya made a surprise return to the stage and performed the final two songs during Labrinth’s set, marking her first live performance in over seven years.

The crowd went wild when Zendaya hit the stage in a pink dress with a white tank top and thigh-high black boots. She performed two songs by his side: “I’m Tired” and “All for Us”, which were featured in her hit HBO show Euphoria.

Zendaya was ecstatic to return to the stage alongside Labrinth and thanked everyone who was there to support her on social media.

“Thank you to my brother Labrinth for inviting me and giving me the most beautiful safe space to be on a stage again. And to the crowd tonight… Wow… My heart is full, I can’t thank you enough for the love I received tonight, made my nerves melt away. I’m so grateful,” Zendaya wrote on Instagram.

Zendaya released her debut album in 2013, while she was still starring on Shake It Up and went on to star in the musical The Greatest Showman, but she’s been mostly focusing on acting in recent years. In a recent interview with Andrew Garfield for Variety, she said she doesn’t know if she could be a pop star and that she stepped away from music “for various reasons”.
