TikTok has crowned Justin Bieber the 'mood' of Coachella and he didn't even perform

Coachella — the annual music festival in California — has become known for drawing in a high number of celebrities and influencers, whose posts about attending the event dominate feeds all over social media every spring.

This year, many attendees have been complaining, instead of bragging, about the festival on social media, sharing the unglamorous realities behind camping out at the event on TikTok, and the difficulties they've faced in dealing with huge crowds on the ground.

One particular point of disappointment for many attendees was Frank Ocean's headlining set, which went viral after it was cut short due to a curfew and was considered artistically unconventional and controversial among many who watched it.

More broadly, social media appears to have grown more cynical towards the celebrities and influencers who attend the event year after year, suggesting some attempt to make the experience of going to the festival look more attractive than it is for the sake of gaining clout and likes and social media.

Amid such disappointment and negativity, one celebrity came out of the recent Coachella weekend with a glowing response from fans on social media — and he didn't even perform on stage.

Justin Bieber, who was continually spotted dancing and appearing to have a good time in the crowd during the festival, has been praised for his positive vibes and energy, which to many, felt like a breath of fresh air and of genuine enjoyment among the arguably less genuine side to the event.
