Frank Ocean originally had an epic ice-skating routine planned for his Coachella 2023 performance. After he was originally set to headline the music festival in 2020 — before the pandemic shut down the festival — Ocean returned to Indio, California, on Sunday to headline the first weekend of this year's star-studded music festival. The performance was the singer's first in six years since 2017's Flow Festival in Finland.When it came time for his performance, fans became irate when not only was it announced that his set would not be included in YouTube's livestream from the festival, but signs placed around the venue declared that no Frank Ocean merchandise would be available for purchase at the festival.

Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic Two former hockey players who bailed on Frank Ocean’s Coachella performance after it seemingly became enveloped in chaos Sunday have spoken up about the experience in a podcast. Brothers Dan and Chris Powers say that they and more than a hundred other skaters had a positive experience through a good month of rehearsal in L.A., and even a successful dress rehearsal on the Coachella main stage — only to have Ocean render most of the skaters’ services unnecessary as he scrapped the entire epic ice-capades setup as the festival grounds were filling up. In the first segment of their “Empty Netters” podcast, released Tuesday, the Powers brothers said that there were about 120 skaters who’d been hired for the show and had been rehearsing on a makeshift ice rink at Paramount for weeks — including, they said, several Olympians well-known in the figure skating community, as well as hockey veterans like themselves. In the end, they said, the vast majority of these skating extras were left waiting on buses or in hot tents for hours on the perimeter of the festival grounds as Ocean made the last-minute call to dissemble the ice rink and ditch the planned skate choreography.

Frank Ocean's Coachella 2023 performance was affected by a serious ankle injury he picked up during rehearsals, Pitchfork and Rolling Stone report. TMZ sources state that the injury was sustained in a bike accident on the Coachella grounds in the run-up to the festival.

Zack Sharf Digital News Director Justin Bieber came to the defense of Frank Ocean in an Instagram post in which the “Peaches” singer praised Ocean’s controversial Coachella performance. Ocean headlined Coachella 2023 along with Bad Bunny and Blackpink, but his April 16 set proved to be a massive disappointment for fans after he started an hour late, skipped over many fan-favorite songs, performed mostly sitting down and with his back to the crowd and lip-synched to several tracks. He also ran past the Coachella curfew and abruptly ended his set after less than 90 minutes. While Ocean has received pans for his performance, Bieber had nothing but raves for his fellow musician. Bieber, who memorably surprised Coachella in 2019 by joining Ariana Granda’s headlining set, praised Ocean’s artistry and voice in a heartfelt note on social media.

Coachella has reportedly been fined $117,000 (£94,494) for breaking its curfew on all three days of weekend one.The fines come after the festival ran for over 20 minutes past its approved curfew on each day from April 14 to April 16, per Pitchfork. The festival ran 25 minutes past its curfew on Friday (April 14), 22 minutes on Saturday (April 15) and 25 minutes on Sunday (April 16).Pitchfork reports that the fines are part of an agreement between Coachella organiser Goldenvoice and the city of Indio, California dating back to 2013.

There have been lots of complaints about Frank Ocean‘s set at the 2023 Coachella Music Festival and a TikTok user is going viral for her explanation of what seemingly what wrong.

Coachella festival, the biggest in North America. So the fact that Frank Ocean’s festival-closing performance — his first in nearly six years — was so shambolic left many concertgoers distressed, depressed, annoyed and other similar emotions (and left exponentially more people feeling similar kinds of ways when his set was unexpectedly not livestreamed). The energy was low, he and the band were obscured by a battery of people walking in a circle around the stage, he performed a seeming ad-hoc setlist with a bizarrely timed DJ set in the middle, and the show started an hour late. A post early Monday from the music-festival-centric Twitter site the Festive Owl offered a seemingly plausible basic explanation for what transpired, several basic facts of which have been confirmed by sources to Variety, along with reports in Rolling Stone and TMZ. Reps for Coachella promoter Goldenvoice, its parent company AEG and Ocean did not immediately respond to Variety’s requests for comment.

Frank Ocean‘s set at the 2023 Coachella Music Festival was cut short due to the curfew and there have been reports about last-minute changes in the production. Now there is an explanation for what happened.

Jeff Miller There’s no question that the most-talked-about performance of Coachella weekend one was Frank Ocean’s festival-closing, wildly uneven set. But that’s unfortunate seeing as the desert gathering, often seen as a state-of-pop-music coming out party, had an enormous amount of interesting and often great stories and sets over the course of three days. The biggest takeaway, trend-wise, is that international music has clearly cemented its place in the pop stratosphere; Friday night’s headliner Bad Bunny performed nearly his entire Friday headline set, including the intros and interstitials, in Spanish, while K-Pop superstars Blackpink blew away haters with a tightly choreographed, jaw-dropping Saturday night performance.

and influencers have risen to the challenge of bringing bold looks to the highly anticipated event.Lele Pons, a Venezuelan and American YouTuber who got her social media start on Vine before its closure in 2016, teamed up with fellow internet personality Hannah Stocking.The pair both wore varying shades of blue denim shorts and high-hair looks.But, the attention-grabbing piece on their outfits was their tops, with Lele wearing a silver top that looked akin to a suit of armor or melted candle wax.Hannah wore a matching version, but this time opted for a gold color.One social media called the outfit “drippy” while another said it was their favorite look out of the music festival so far.Another added: “How were those tops made? I need to know!”Bad Bunny, Blackpink and Frank Ocean are set to headline, with other musical acts such as Blink-182, Gorillaz, Blondie, The Chemical Brothers, The Kid Laroi, Björk and Calvin Harris also making an appearance.The glammed-up cowboy look appeared to be the choice of many attendees, with one woman wearing a tan hat, a blue bikini top and skirt featuring fringing with gold boots to finish.Another woman, with pink plaits in her hair, wore tan boots, a black hat, leopard print shorts and a top with the word “feral” written over it.Lele also embraced the “cowboy” trend seen on many attendees.She wore a cow print one piece with matching boots, completing the look with a brown hat and sunglasses.During the festival, another trend that seemed to seep through in many outfits was the use of fluoro yellow and green.One young woman, pictured taking a selfie on the grass surrounded by two of her friends, used bold colors in her mini skirt and bikini top combo.Another attendee matched their fluoro
