Karol G makes major announcement during Coachella set - what did fans think about it?

Karol G just closed Coachella 2026 with a second headline show that brought Latin fever to Indio, California.

She was the first Latina headliner that the festival has had, and her Weekend One slot felt no shortage of praise, thanks to its huge production value; including a mariachi band and incredible costumes.

She was joined across the weekend by Justin Bieber and Sabrina Carpenter.

Following her first headliner slot, her Spotify streams increased 15 per cent within one day, and her U.S. streams reportedly jumped over 35 per cent, per Rolling Stone.

This weekend, she was joined by a number of special guests, including J Balvin, Peso Pluma, and Becky G, before blowing fans' minds further when she announced a tour at the end of the show.

"You are mother Becky G", one fan reacted to the special guest appearance, which saw the 'Shower' singer celebrate immigration.

"Karol G the woman that you are", another wrote.

Another praised the Colombian for "devouring" the performance, while a fourth penned that she's the "best to do it".

How much was Karol G paid for Coachella?

The exact figure isn't known, but headliner fees are usually around mid-seven figures. That money will also need to go towards production costs and other fees.

JBeau Lewis, a partner agent at UTA who has Karol as a client, told The Hollywood Reporter that Coachella's first Latina headliner spent three times the fee she was paid on bringing the show to life, as part of a "bigger plan" for long-term exposure.
