Rosalía brings out fiancé Rauw Alejandro as surprise guest at Coachella
The couple captured the hearts of fans as they sang and danced together
After four years, Rosalía returned to Coachella on Saturday. The Spanish artist brought high energy to the stage, performing hit songs throughout her career, with a heavy focus on tracks from 2022′s ‘Motomami’.
And she had a special guest join her on stage. Rosalía surprised fans by bringing out fiancé Rauw Alejandro, and the two performed songs from their new debut EP, ‘RR’.
Rosalía and Rauw Alejandro captured fans hearts
Rosalía began her set with ‘Saoko’ from ‘Motomami’, with visuals and costume choices that heavily referenced motorcycles and speeding down the highway.
The ‘Con Altura’ singer wore a low-key outfit, with leather pants and a pink transparent top with frills and minimal makeup.
Near the end of her set, Rosalía took a moment to address the audience.
“How many of you have listened to ‘RR’?” she asked the audience in Spanish.
“You know, tonight is really special for me, because four years ago I came to Coachella, alone, but, this time I said ‘no’. And it goes like this...” she said emotionally, as the audience heard Rauw Alejandro’s voice singing the first few notes of ‘Beso’, joining her on stage decked out in a black leather outfit.
Performing both ‘Beso’ and ‘Vampiro’ from ‘RR’, the couple romantically sang to each other as the audience cheered.
Fans praised the performance and the couple’s obvious adoration for each other.
An Enrique Iglesias cover and brief return to ‘El Mal Querer’
Rosalía then took a moment to hug her fiancé backstage, before she returned to complete her set with a piano cover of Enrique Iglesias’ song ‘Héroe’.
Afterward, she returned with her dancers to perform her 2018 single ‘Malamente’ from ‘El Mal Querer’, a pop-flamenco fusion song. This was followed by ‘Chicken Teriyaki’ where Rosalía and dancers performed on scooters with cameras attached capturing Rosalía dancing on the scooter.
Rosalía’s second Coachella set was then closed out with an abstract performance of ‘CUUUUuuuuuute’, with the artist performing the song on the floor as her dancers enveloped her.
