SZA's Grand National Tour made headlines during its second visit to Los Angeles on May 23, 2025, at SoFi Stadium. She had an unexpected guest performer, Justin Bieber, with whom she sang their hit "Snooze". The unexpected guest surprised many fans and went viral on all social media.
Bieber's sighting was something to see. He has been avoiding the limelight since he canceled his Justice World Tour. Most fans were eager to see him perform on stage once again, particularly with SZA. Others did not mind. Some believed it was a lovely collaboration, while others wondered why he had done it.
"i'd ask for a refund" said a fan on X
"Lip syncing at its best" said another fan
"Justin really does not need to be on stage. He looks very unwell." commented a fan
"two of the biggest pop stars" commented another fan
"Good performance" remarked a fan
Why did SZA invite Justin Bieber?
Some people believe SZA invited Bieber because they already have a musical history. Bieber appeared in the music video for “Snooze” in 2023 and was featured on the acoustic version of the song. The chemistry was already there, and SZA may have wanted to share that with her live audience.
Another reason could be that Bieber is a huge name in music. Having him appear at the tour added attention and hype. It also created a moment people would talk about online. This is something artists often do to keep their tours exciting.
Lastly, some fans think SZA wanted to support Bieber. He has faced mental health issues and career changes. Inviting him might have been a way to show friendship and offer a safe space for him to return to performing.
Is this a comeback for Justin Bieber?
This could be the start of a comeback for Bieber. After Coachella 2024, he had not done many live shows. His appearance with SZA was one of his first major performances in a while.
Bieber has faced several personal and financial challenges in the last few years. He canceled his Justice World Tour and took time away from music. This surprise performance may show he is ready to return to the stage, at least in small steps.
Still, it’s not clear if Bieber plans to go back to regular touring or releasing new music. For now, this looks like a one-time appearance. But it has made people curious about what he might do next.
