Zendaya shocked fans at Coachella by joining Labrinth for Weekend 2 of the annual music festival, taking the stage to perform their collaboration, All for Us.

Since transitioning fully into the world of acting, the Emmy winner hasn't done much singing — especially not before an audience as big as Coachella's.

Zendaya thanked fans after the performance, saying on social media, "Thank you all for welcoming me back on stage with open arms."

Along with 2019's All for Us, Zendaya has also contributed I'm Tired (with Labrinth) and Elliot's Song (with Dominic Ficke) to the soundtrack of Euphoria.

While the SAG-AFTRA strike halted her viral red carpet appearances, Zendaya reclaimed her fashion crown with several stunning ensembles at October's Paris Fashion Week.

2023 marked the Marvel star's first year as an ambassador for Louis Vuitton, and the partnership was perhaps nowhere better executed than at Paris Fashion Week.

Modeling both new releases and timeless vintage pieces, Zendaya embodied the brand's elegance on the big stage with some of the most memorable looks of her career.
