Justin Bieber Delivers ‘Daisies’ and ‘Yukon’ at First U.S. Show in Four Years

Justin Bieber performed at the Roxy in Los Angeles Sunday night, delivering his first major show in the U.S. in four years as he prepares for his headlining set at Coachella.

The private club gig boasted a 25-song set, comprised entirely of songs from Bieber’s two 2025 albums, Swag and Swag II (per Setlist.fm and a photo shared on social media). Bieber appeared to perform two “regular” sets, as well as an “acoustic set,” which featured renditions of tracks like “Mother in You,” “Things You Do,” and “Dotted Line.”


While it appears Bieber implemented a strict no-phone policy, a few short videos have made their way online. These include a pair of clips that show Bieber leading a very hyped-up crowd in a rendition of his hit single, “Daisies” (which fittingly closed out the show).

There’s also a short snippet of Bieber singing “Yukon,” with his fans eagerly assisting him in singing the hook.


With the caveat that this was an invite-only event for fans, the Roxy gig arguably was Bieber’s first full-fledged, public concert since his Justice tour ended in 2022. (Bieber postponed, and then canceled, the run while dealing with a series of health issues.) Since then, the pop star has largely been absent from the stage, outside a handful of private gigs (like a 2024 set at the extravagant wedding of Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant, the children of two Indian billionaires) and some scattered TV performances (like the 2024 NHL All-Star game and the Grammys in February). Last November, Bieber livestreamed a 10-song performance on Twitch, though it primarily featured his older material and nothing from Swag.

The Roxy gig was almost certainly a warm-up gig ahead of Coachella, which Bieber is set to headline along with Sabrina Carpenter and Karol G. Weekend one of Coachella is set for April 10 through 12, while weekend two will take place April 17 through 19.

Everything We Know About Drake's 'Iceman' So Far

For the first time in years, a new Drake album arrives carrying genuine uncertainty.

Iceman, the Toronto rapper’s ninth solo studio album, is set to release tomorrow, May 15, after months of cryptic teasers, livestreams, public stunts and relentless speculation. Under normal circumstances, a Drake release would already dominate the conversation by sheer scale alone.

This time, though, the album also arrives in the shadow of his highly publicized feud with Kendrick Lamar, which reshaped the public perception around one of rap’s biggest stars.

There's 'No Rock Stars' at Montréal's Pouzza Fest

Despite 13 editions under his belt, Hugo Mudie still gets nervous as Pouzza Fest rolls around. Every year since founding the legendary Montréal punk and DIY festival in 2011, the same worries come back. Will the weather cooperate? Did he forget an important detail? And, most importantly, will festivalgoers be happy?

For the past 15 years, Pouzza Fest has occupied a unique place within the punk scene ecosystem. Originally conceived as a relatively modest gathering for punk fans and touring bands, the festival has grown into one of the most respected DIY events in North America.

He Faced a Wave of Loss in Recent Years, But This New York Punk Never Gave Up

Julian Pratt, frontman for punk-rap bruisers Show Me the Body, has a simple request: Show us the pigeons.

The shaven-headed 32-year-old vocalist and banjoist is tromping through Astoria Park, a verdant stretch of Queens along New York’s East River, with his two-year-old daughter, Surey, on the hunt for the city’s most famous wildlife. But since it’s an unusually chilly Friday, at least for May, the city’s famously ample winged rats seem scarce. Luckily, Pratt came prepared. Pratt runs deep with New York’s pigeon community; picture Marlon Brando traipsing through rooftop coops in On the Waterfront, and you’ll get the idea. So he knows where to buy 20 pounds of feed, and he brought a pound or two with him.

Paris Jackson Wins Fight to Claw Back $625,000 in Bonuses Paid to Estate Lawyers: ‘Massive Win’

Paris Jackson has won her bid to force three lawyers to return $625,000 in bonuses paid by John Branca, the executor of her father’s estate.

In a 23-page ruling, unsealed Tuesday and obtained by Rolling Stone, the retired judge, who long presided over Michael Jackson’s probate case and is now serving as a private referee on the complex case, granted Paris’ motion to claw back the 2018 payments. They include $250,000 to Jay Cooper of Greenberg Traurig, $125,000 to Jeryll Cohen of Saul Ewing, and $250,000 to the late, lead estate lawyer Howard Weitzman of Kinsella Holley Iser Kump Steinsapir.
