  • Inside Coachella 2026: Bieber Fever, Fights & After-parties
    Apr 22 2026

    This week on Pretty Basic, it’s a full post-Coachella recap—and somehow that’s only half the chaos.

    We are fresh off the desert (slightly delusional, a little raspy, but still cute and composed) and breaking down everything from VIP compound life and brand trip surrealness to the performances that actually lived up to the hype. Think: dreamy house vibes, private chefs, emotional full-circle moments… and the reality check of realizing you can be both tired and still fun.

    We get into:

    • The Coachella glow-up from Motel 6 to luxury compounds
    • Why this year hit different (in the best—and weirdest—ways)
    • And the unexpected emotions that come with “making it” moments


    Plus, Remi shares a HUGE life update—like, lifelong dream unlocked—and the girls relive how it all went down behind the scenes (including the sneaky setup that made it even more special).

    And as if that wasn’t enough… Remi is secretly in full mastermind mode planning Cal’s surprise 30th birthday Vegas trip—with 18 people, spreadsheets, decoy plans, and just a tiny flight cancellation crisis thrown in for fun.

    It’s giving festival highs, planner stress, friendship moments, and a lot of “how is this our life??”

    Grab your water (or your matcha), and get ready for this very Pretty Basic Coachella recap. 💫
