Justin Bieber just crashed SZA’s GNX Tour—was it a one-night comeback or the start of something bigger? Fans at SoFi Stadium got more than they bargained for…
So...you’re at SoFi Stadium in L.A., the crowd’s electric, SZA’s floating across the stage like the ethereal R&B goddess she is—and then boom, out of the smoke and lights, appears none other than the Prince of Pop himself, Justin Bieber.
Yes, Justin Bieber joined SZA live on stage during the Grand National Tour (GNX) on May 23, 2025, and the fans? They lost their collective minds. The performance? A dreamy duet of their 2023 hit “Snooze”, the kind of collaboration you’d expect on a late-night playlist, not under a stadium’s neon haze. This was a historic Bieber sighting—his first major live moment since pulling the plug on his Justice World Tour in 2023 due to health issues. Talk about a comeback cameo!
SZA, already owning the stage with her “SOS Deluxe: Lana” set, didn’t need any help. But the moment Bieber strolled out, the show went from “amazing” to “legendary” in 0.2 seconds. Cue the screams, TikToks, and the inevitable flood of “IS THAT JUSTIN?!” tweets.
Let’s get real for a second: this is pop-R&B royalty meets alt-R&B queen in the most unexpected (yet totally welcome) fashion. Bieber didn’t just phone it in, either—he sang like he never left, his voice melting like caramel over SZA’s honeyed tone. The chemistry? Instant. The vibes? Immaculate. The fans? Sobbing. Screaming. Throwing bras. You know, the usual.

This GNX Tour isn’t just big—it’s massive. Co-headlined by Kendrick Lamar and SZA, this is their first all-stadium tour, hitting 39 cities from North America to Europe, and yes, it’s every bit the cultural reset fans hoped for. Think surprise guests like Baby Keem, Kaytranada, Lizzo, and now—drumroll—Justin freakin’ Bieber.
Now, is Biebs officially “back”? That’s TBD. He’s still taking things slow post-hiatus, but if this surprise is anything to go by, the stage might be calling him louder than ever.
In the end, this wasn’t just a concert. It was a moment. A glittering blip in pop culture’s timeline when two worlds collided, and for three glorious minutes.
