Selena Gomez Joins Coldplay During Concert
On Sunday, Coldplay performed at the Rose Bowl in California. During the show, frontman Chris Martin invited a pair of fans on stage with the band. They sat down with him at the piano as he performed “Let Somebody Go.”
Before performing, Martin pointed out that the band recorded this song with Gomez. It was released in 2021 and appeared on Coldplay’s ninth studio album, Music of the Spheres. Martin said they “never get to sing it with her” and apologized “if it doesn’t sound quite as good as the record.”
Part of the way through the performance, the crowd went wild as they saw Gomez walking on stage. She joined them in singing the song. Eventually, H.E.R. also showed up to lend her own voice to the song and play guitar.
Gomez shared clips from the performance on her Instagram stories, writing, “Thank you @coldplay @hermusicofficial for an amazing night!”
