Will Smith shocks Coachella crowd with surprise performance during J Balvin’s set

J Balvin had a special surprise for his Coachella crowd during Sunday night’s set… Will Smith.
The Colombian musician, 38, brought out the 4-time Grammy winner to perform a rendition of his 1997 track “Men in Black,” which was featured in the sci-fi alien film of the same name.
Smith’s surprise appearance was in keeping with Balvin’s extra-terrestrial-themed set, which was adorned with UFOs and alien heads.
After announcing the “Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” alum to the audience, Smith rocked up dressed up as his character from the film for the performance on the Coachella Stage in Indio, Calif.
The 55-year-old turned into his character James Darrell Edwards III as he wore Agent J’s trademark black suit and sunglasses as he emerged onto the stage on a rising platform.
“Coachella,” he yelled, before starting to rap in front of backup dancers all donning alien gear.
After the song ended, the dancers dragged Balvin off the stage as Smith whipped out a Neuralyzer — a prop from the hit film that wipes the memory of a target.
Smith’s wife, Jada Pinkett Smith, and his son, Jaden Smith, were both in the audience to watch the performance.
On Saturday, Jaden was seen hanging out with his celeb pals, including Justin Bieber.
The pair – who famously collaborated on Bieber’s hit “Never Say Never” as teenagers – were spotted embracing each other as they reunited at the three-day music festival.
As seen in a video that’s gone viral on social media, Jaden, 25, greeted the “Baby” singer, 30, by hugging him from behind as they stood in a VIP area near one of the stages.
Smith’s return to Coachella comes five years after his last performance at the hit festival.
In 2019, he joined Jaden on the Sahara stage, where the pair performed their son “Icon.”
This year’s cameo is also his first music performance since his infamous Oscars slap scandal that saw him issue a public apology to comedian Chris Rock, who hosted the awards ceremony that year.
Despite taking a step back from acting since the ordeal, Smith is set to return to the silver screen in the upcoming film “Bad Boys 4,” slated for release later this year.
