See Justin Bieber Join SZA for Surprise ‘Snooze’ Performance in Los Angeles

Justin Bieber made a surprise (and increasingly rare) onstage appearance Friday when he popped up during SZA’s set Friday during the Grand National Tour’s stop at Inglewood, California’s SoFi Stadium.

Following a trying couple of months that included since-denied Diddy rumors, a report about his “financial distress,” and concerning social media posts, Bieber was back in his artistic element Friday as he joined SZA for a rendition of “Snooze”; Bieber previously appeared on the acoustic remix of the SOS single.

While Bieber hasn’t performed a full public concert since September 2022, the singer has sporadically appeared onstage at other artists’ shows in recent years, including a cameo at Don Toliver’s Los Angeles gig in October 2024 to perform “Private Landing.”

However, Friday wasn’t the first time Bieber performed “Snooze” live: Back in February 2024, he attempted the track solo at a surprise Toronto mini-gig during the NHL All-Star Draft festivities. However, Friday’s rendition marked the first time Bieber and SZA had performed the song together onstage.

To date, “Snooze” is the most recent single that Bieber has featured on, as the singer hasn’t released any new music of his own since 2021’s Justice.

SZA’s previous Grand National Tour set at SoFi Stadium featured a guest appearance by Lizzo. She and Kendrick Lamar will play one more show at the Englewood stadium Saturday night.
