Grimes makes fun of her own failed Coachella set during weekend two performance
Grimes poked fun at her own failed Coachella set during her second performance at the festival over the weekend.
The singer’s set the previous weekend was engulfed by a myriad of problems, leaving her screaming out in frustration multiple times.
She apologised to the crowd at the time, saying: “All my tracks are double tempo and I can’t do the math. They’re borderline un-mixable, so the rest of my set won’t be mixes but it’ll still be fun.”
Ahead of her show on Saturday (April 20) Grimes issued a promise that she’d be well-prepared for the performance.

At the beginning of her show, she started her performance with a video that showed a series of masked characters trolling the singer with comments such as “she can’t DJ”. You can view the clip above.
Unlike her first set, Grimes’ performance at the weekend seemed to go off without a hitch.
Elsewhere, Kid Cudi‘s set at came to an abrupt end last night (April 21) after the rapper broke his foot during his performance.
He jumped off the stage to get closer to his fans at the barricades, but broke his foot in the process during ‘Memories’. He was carried out of the Sahara Tent while his DJ played Steve Aoki’s remix of ‘Pursuit Of Happiness’.
DJ Snake also brought out 50 Cent as a guest performer during his set as the rapper performed a medley of three songs: ‘Many Men (Wish Death)’, ‘In Da Club’ and ‘P.I.M.P’.
Sabrina Carpenter closed out her final Coachella performance of 2024 with a cheeky nod to her partner Barry Keoghan.
