Justin Bieber and Jaden Smith stole the spotlight at Coachella on Saturday after being spotted having an affectionate encounter.

Justin, 29, and Jaden, 25, who were last seen together at a Beverly Hills dinner in January, shared a reunion in a VIP area adjacent to one of the concert stages.

Jaden surprised his BFF by grabbing him in a warm hug from behind, leading to a kiss from Justin. The duo then engaged in a conversation with old friends.

Their friendship goes back to 2010 when they collaborated on Justin’s hit ‘Never Say Never,’ which also served as the theme song for Jaden’s movie The Karate Kid.

This latest meeting follows their January dinner at Wally’s restaurant in Beverly Hills, where they were joined by mutual friends including Smith’s girlfriend, influencer Sab Zada, and singer-songwriter Harry Hudson, 30.

The trio were last seen together celebrating Hudson’s 30th birthday alongside Kendall Jenner in June 2023, per the Daily Mail.

The reunion comes amidst Justin and his wife, Hailey Bieber’s, Coachella escapades. The couple kicked off the festival by attending Lana Del Rey’s headline act, which featured a surprise cameo by Billie Eilish.

Earlier this year, Hailey took to social media to end speculation that she was having marriage troubles with Justin.

The couple’s relationship came under scrutiny following a cryptic social media post by Hailey’s father, Stephen Baldwin, soliciting prayers for the couple’s well-being.

Stephen had shared a now-deleted Instagram post from Victor Marx, the founder of All Things Possible Ministries, featuring Justin playing the guitar and singing the lyrics of ‘I Could Sing of Your Love Forever’ by Delirious? and Hillsong Worship.

Marx’s caption highlighted the challenges faced by public figures like Justin and Hailey and the importance of drawing closer to faith.

This public attention didn’t sit well with the beauty mogul, according to sources cited by TMZ, who described her as “p****d” about her father’s actions, considering the matter a private family issue.

In response, Hailey took to Instagram Stories to dispel any ongoing speculation, stating: “Just FYI the stories and constant ‘blind items’ I see on TikTok are 100% of the time wrong. Made out of thin air… come from the land of delusion,” she wrote, adding, “So I know it may be fun feeding into these stories but just know they’re always false xx sorry to spoil it.”
