Lady Gaga to headline at Coachella
Pair of Coachella performances in April; her world tour begins in Vancouver on Aug. 1
Attention Little Monsters: Lady Gaga is coming to Coachella.
The diva announced Tuesday night she will be performing at the music festival for both weekends in April. Gaga will take the headlining spot that had been Beyonce's; pregnant with twins, the superstar announced last week that her doctors recommended she bow out. She rescheduled her performance for next year.
The Coachella website also reflected her announcement, showing her slated to perform April 15 and April 22.
Gaga is set to launch her Joanne world tour this summer, so Coachella will be a warm-up for her of sorts. That tour will kick off with dates in Vancouver and Edmonton in early August, with shows in Montreal and Toronto in September.
Gaga is coming off a pair of high-profile performances this month – at the Super Bowl in Houston, and a turn with Metallica at the Grammys in Los Angeles.
Besides Gaga, other performers at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in Indio, Calif., include Radiohead and Kendrick Lamar.
