As she reached the end of her Coachella weekend two set, Addison Rae paused to ask the audience if they had heard “any new music this week.” On cue, Olivia Rodrigo emerged from the back of the stage, joining the pop singer for a pair of duets.

Rodrigo first sang with Rae on the latter’s single “Headphones On,” trading off lines and joining together on the chorus. “Coachella, how much do we love Miss Addison?” asked Rodrigo after the song’s completion. “Oh my god, I might just drop dead,” added Rae, a nod to Rodrigo’s new single “Drop Dead.” “Can we make some noise?” Rodrigo then gave the live debut of her freshly released single, strutting to the front of the stage with Rae and singing the tune as a duet.
