Here are some assorted photos from Coachella’s Day 2 & Day 3. I’m so old, I’m barely following what’s going down with the actual music, but I did hear that Kanye West’s “surprise” appearance with A$AP Rocky did not go well. I also heard that Calvin Harris’ set last night went really, really well. He brought out Rihanna and they did “We Found Love.” Taylor Swift was there too. The whole thing sounds like a giant, open-air rave.
I'll NEVER forget this moment.
SO INCREDIBLE!!@CalvinHarris @rihanna #coachella pic.twitter.com/KIjF9p6hT1— Taylor Swift (@taylorswift13) April 18, 2016
More photos…here’s MUVA Amber Rose looking like she’s about to do a lunch meeting at the Ivy. I was not expecting this pretty dress on Amber!
From Fame/Flynet: “Actress Lea Michele is looking fabulous in her Fabletics by Kate Hudson outfit while at Day 2 of the first weekend of The Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in Coachella, California on April 16, 2015. Lea made sure to wear her Fabletics outfit so she could stay comfortable while checking out the outdoor music festival.” So Lea Michele’s trip to Coachella has been sponsored by Fabletics.
Brooklyn Beckham is giving me Spicoli/Rocco Ritchie vibes in this photo.
Do you buy Ashley Greene as some earth-loving hippie? This really looks like a costume.
I would not have chosen Olivia Culpo’s boots, but she does look great.
I don’t get why Cody Simpson is a thing.
Bella Thorne has purple hair now, because Coachella.
Alessandra Ambrosio is never NOT annoying.

Amber looks way too beautiful for that Faux Hippy Dump Site. I am so nana and cranky-just looking at these people made me frown hard.
Looking at celeb photos from Coachella always makes me frown, everyone looks like they are in costume. Trying SO hard to look the part. Bleh.
I saw another picture of her and she was wearing a black T-shirt amd black jeans. She looked great. And normal. The t-shirt did have boobs on it but still. She looked much better than in this dress.
What’s going on with Brooklyn’s legs? They are weird, right? These pants are not his friend.
Looks like he’s bow-legged. What a shame they didn’t correct that when he was a baby/toddler.
David has the same legs, I will some athletes get that from sports especially footballers. I think bow legs are sexy!
What’s muva?
I’m pretty sure it’s slang for Mother/Mama or something like that
Yup.
She calls her fan base rose buds and rose studs, and she calls herself Muva Rose Bud.lol yes I knew that!
my question: where are all these people going?
they’re always just walking about.
Where are they coming from? Where are they going?
Is there a special section of grass where you get to do your pap-walk?
lol.
It’s a music festival. There’s usually at least 10 stages all playing music at once. If you’re done watching one artist, sometimes you have to travel, sometimes pretty far, to see the next one on your list. You can’t see them all, and you have to plan your routes. It’s A LOT of walking.
And…. is it a requirement to show your midriff in order to be allowed entrance?
That I don’t know. I went to Lollapalooza in like 2001 and I wore soccer shorts, a tank top and flip flops. These get-ups seem impractical and uncomfortable.
Photographers usually aren’t allowed in the VIP areas, so if celebs want to see and be seen, they have to wander around the festival grounds. And for the most part, they’re there specifically for that reason.
It’s a music festival. It’s set up in a big open area, with different stages set up in different spots. You have a list ahead of time of who’s play where and at what time, and you plan according to who you want to see. Not to mention there are food and bathroom stops as well.
Ashley Greene looks like Bridget Moynahan
Alessandra Ambrosio is beautiful but I swear she has one of those punchable faces. She really does seem annoying.
Didn’t I just read an article where Taylor says her relationship is private and low key? Right.
Just like she said she was going to go away when her tour ended. She likes attention.
Brooklyn B is annoying me. Is he there with his Nanny? How old is he? Helooks as awkward and stupid as I did at that age, but then I wasnt pap walking at music festivals either. My other question is where are all these peoples kids, Amber has one, A.A has one, do they just dump the little ones and take off?
His mother is there with him.
Sorry but that’s ridiculous. Mothers don’t dump their children. They have partners, friends, family and babysitters. So once I’m a mum I can’t do anything? I can’t spend a day with my friends? Can’t go to an event?
Let’s just trap ourselves in a box and label it MOTHER…
No thanks!
Sorry pet peeve of my and for good reason!
+ 1!
My ig feed has just been a barf-inducing-fest with all these Coachella pics, all staged and forced, I doubt people even listen to the music nowadays, they are probably busy taking selfies the whole time.
Sponsored or not, I Like Lea’s outfit, out of all the pics here in this post. She looks cute.
Good thing Taylor wanted to be a singer and not a dancer.
Yes!!! Poor Tay Tay
She is painfully uncool but it doesn’t bother her so that makes her almost cool again… (almost.)
Heavy boots with shorts never made sense to me but thigh-high or even mid-ankle-high (faux?) leather boots in the middle of the desert? Ridiculous.
Greene’s top is very unflattering and she made it worse with that strap – does she owe a mirror? Amber Rose’s outfit is pretty, but not fit for this occasion. Ambrosio probably reached peak-annoying – I can’t look at her pics without eye-rolling. Barring the blatant sponsoring – I think Lea Michele looked the most comfortable and the prettiest of the bunch, and unflattering hair or not – Swift looked like she genuinely enjoyed herself, which is the point of music festivals.
I saw half of the picture of Olivia and I thought finally, someone looks so great and normal. But then I saw the boots. Who wears over the knee leather heeled boots to a desert?
I wear cut-off shorts with boots a lot.
*shrugs*
It might look strange but it’s more appropriate than wearing flip-flops in the city, since I’m not a huge fan of black soot all over my feet.
Also, I guess I’m alone in that I happen to like the way it looks.
But you’re probably not in a desert?
Flip flops in the city gross me out, especially on trains and buses. Not nearly enough of a barrier against the filth.
You can wash your feet you know?
Having dirty feet will do you absolutely no harm unless your feet are cut up and you have some immune deficiency
I do too but I must admit I wouldn’t at Coachella. I wore my Chucks when I went. Flip flops in a city? Nope.
Ha ha, going back to your 90s roots?
A genuine question:
is Coachella open to everybody or you can only join in if you’re a celebrity ( or half celebrity. or Z lister)?
I’m pretty sure if you want to cough up the dough for tickets, anyone can go. That said, my 13 year old niece informed me that one of her friends is there with her mom and sister and they’re from Great Falls, MT. Go figure.
I know someone from here in Chicago who goes, not a celeb but definitely has celeb-level try hard tendencies, even as a 40-something professional and mom. Her entire FB feed is basically a million variations of “see how edgy I still am?”
We rarely see pics of the “common folks” at Coachella, only the A-listers, so it does look like everyone is a celebrity of some sort, but in reality, they are probably in the minority when compared to all who attend. I think this is supposed to be some kind of make-believe Woodstock, but it comes off as so staged, mostly because everyone is there to show off what they are wearing. With Woodstock, it seemed like everyone came together because of the music, which was the primary focus, not how cool or expensive their outfits were…..
I think they start selling the tickets months in advance. Yes, anyone can get it.
If anyone can get in why there are no loons around ?
Well there probably are a couple, but there is a lot of security. That’s sort of like asking why there aren’t a bunch of crazies at any concert/sporting event/convention.
Anyone can go but tickets sell out so fast and are expensive. Usually the celebs also hang out in the vip area and don’t socialize with the peasants. It’s the typical look at how awesome I am fest. Full of try hard bloggers and irrelevant ‘celebrities’.
This is only from an article discussing why old rock music acts are struggling at Coachella but:
Anyone can go, tickets sell in advance, you MUST buy tickets for all the days even if you can only go to one. Celebs on the other hand are often paid to go, hence the ridiculous outfits and the abundance of nobodies.
What’s the point of getting tickets for all the days if you could only go to one??? I’m so lost. The more I read and see about this festival the more confused I get.
As in, you buy your tickets for the whole festival, even if you’re only interested in 1 day’s worth of acts. They sell out quickly enough that the festival doesn’t need to parcel it out into single day tickets.
Exactly Bridget.
Lynnie, it basically comes down to being your problem if you can’t attend more than one day because they don’t sell tickets for individual days. Money wasted for the people who would actually enjoy the show and it hurts older rock acts but thems the rules at Coachella.
It’s silly.
It’s kind of interesting that Calvin Harris said in an interview (pre-Taylor) that she seems nice but she’s totally not his type, and now that they’re together she has slowly creeped into a very Rita Ora-esque look.
Everyone was bashing her ashy hair color but now she’s trying to be Rita Ora. Give me a break
I agree the Rita thing is a stretch, but this hair is SO BAD. The ashy blonde was alright. It wasn’t as good a color for her as when she started out (a warm blonde), but seemed closer to her natural color and pretty low maintenance. This is the most high maintenance color she’s ever had and it is extremely unflattering.
@EasyP Um, I didn’t say she’s trying to be Rita. Nor am I bashing her. I said her style (and departure from hipster twee) seems to be going more towards Calvin’s traditional type. Platinum blonde with intense red lips and minimal clothing was his ex’s signature look.
It’s not just the hair color, that’s just the latest. Taylor started wearing tighter and more revealing red carpet outfits and is now doing botty poses, got butt pads, chopped off her hair and NOW getting the super blonde bleach job. Yep either he is pushing her to dress more like his ex-girlfriend Rita Ora or SHE is turning herself into a girl she thinks he secretly is more attracted to.
The changes were subtle, I didn’t clue in until she shown up in butt pads and started doing a million try-hard botty poses for the paps then light blind flashed in my mind. Hello Kim Khardasian being morphed into Amber Rose by Kanye!
I like Leah’s outfit. Looks comfy and appropriate to me and not overdone wackadoo hippy.
Wow. All of these people suck.
Rave concert… water bottles… MOLLY?!
I live in Palm Springs. I hate Coachella.
that is all.
Those people just loves to dress up.. anyway, though he’s just a teenager, Brooklyn Beckham gives me major douche vibes.. hope chloe moretz stays away from that.
I actually don’t understand why Cody is not more of a thing. Maybe it’s because he keeps a rather low profile. I’d rather see more of him than, say, Bieber or Zayn Malik.
The poor lad, regrettably, looks like a scarecrow. He was a thing here for a while, but no one mentions him anymore.
As a woman with a large bust, I feel for Amber.
I love Olivia’s outfit, and her BF is Danny amendola of the Patriots. Not a bad looking couple
He’s hot. The two of them together are smokin’ IMO.
Amber Looks like a goddess
Controversial maybe but I am LOVING that Taylor hair Like That Unstyled/not prim, but I think is basically the Shade itself, which I called a vast improvement back in the Vogue post, I’m with it!
I like it too.
Add me in. I’m like QQ, I like it as she has here!!
I can feel the try hard desperation, flowing through my screen. Coachella seems like what hell must be like.
Ever since I learned some celebs get paid to go to this thing it makes even less sense. You know what I’d rock with? If you decided to wear your flower crown and put a whole bunch of white dots on your face and walk down New York and own it. Don’t do that shit because of Coachella in an effort to look cool and act like you’re having so much fun just being ‘free’.
Freaking lame-asses.
I agree. Most of them could take a cue from Zoe Kravitz. She looked effortlessly fabulous.
alessandra ambrosio has been trying way too hard this entire festival… the outfits, the staged “im having so much fun” shots, the “squad.” i camped last year at firefly, couldn’t access a shower for like 4 days, and there were two storms. i ended up ruining my shoes, burning in the heat, and wearing the same clothes for like a week. in comparison to that, this festival is a joke.
Please don’t make the Beckham kids happen. Please don’t make the Beckham kids happen. Please don’t make the Beckham kids happen.
Wow that’s the most I’ve ever seen Amber Rose covered up. Also, Coachella looks like hell. All the annoying thirsty celebs attend it. They have ruined what once was a cool event.
I saw a pic of Cindy Crawford’s daughter hanging out with the model Jenner girl. Kendall maybe? I’d nip that relationship in the bud real fast.
