The Coachella 2024 fever is in full swing, and surprise performances from artists are about to unfold.
Among the biggest surprises was when Filipino American sensation Olivia Rodrigo took the Coachella main stage by storm alongside the legendary SoCal band No Doubt, delivering a rendition of their classic hit, “Bathwater.”
This unexpected collaboration unfolded on the festival’s second night, marking a milestone moment for both the “Drivers License” hitmaker and No Doubt as they graced the Coachella stage for the first time.
As the SoCal ska-pop icons commanded the stage with their signature energy, anticipation soared to new heights when they invited the Grammy-winning songstress to join them as a special guest for the eighth song of their set.
Wearing a tank top bearing the message “I <3 ND,” the Fil-Am singer radiated excitement as she and lead singer Gwen Stefani seamlessly traded verses on the fan-favorite 2000s single.
Taking to Instagram to express her gratitude, Rodrigo shared, “I remember hearing ‘Bathwater’ for the first time when I had just started writing songs. It totally turned my world on its head and inspires me to this day.”
