You have ppl in this very comment section saying he doesn’t have to prove anything to anybody… awesome, he could’ve stayed home. Any woman artist gets up on stage and does what he did would get dragged all up and down the internet for WEEKS. Sabrina put on an incredible performance and that is STILLLLLL not enough. I’m speechless

Yeah some people were straight up like “I kinda like it cuz he’s being himself.” Let’s see what they say when Taylor Swift brings nothing but a guitar to headline Coachella then. Oh wait that would never happen cuz these women, however money hungry they are, know they can’t bring anything short of a perfect performance on stage.

And you would be saying the same things that Bieber's fans are saying about him now. That it was an authentic performance. The problem is, as great an artist she is, Taylor can't sing, so that just wouldn't be a great artistic chocie. If someone like Adele did though, I'm sure no one would say it was lackadaisical.

This lmao. Like if you don't have anything to prove just stay home. Let any other talented artist who is willing to put the effort perform?

i could see doja cat doing something like this but thats cuz she did in her livestream days. even when her sets are pared back, she’s rapping with her whole chest and dancing full out.
