Lady Gaga revealed that she wanted to perform Killah at Coachella

While fans seemed excited about Lady Gaga's performance at the much awaited Coachella, the singer revealed the song which would definitely be there on her set. In an interview with Rolling Stone, she spoke about Killah, a song from her 2025 album Mayhem.

Killah, which further featured French DJ and songwriter Gesaffelstein, was reportedly very special to Gaga. The singer told Rolling Stone:

"That was really Gesaffelstein’s baby. I'm so in awe of his work on that record. And we had a good time making it together. The bridge just pops off and it's going to be total mayhem, a good time. I can't wait to play it at Coachella."

The singer, however, did not reveal the complete setlist of her performances. She further told the outlet that she was working alongside New Zealand choreographer Parris Goebel and crafting the set "moment by moment. Lady Gaga further mentioned in the conversation with Rolling Stone:

"I can’t wait to do it… I love singing for people and making people happy."

This time would mark Gaga's second time headlining the event in Indio, California. Back in 2017, she did it for the first time after taking over Beyoncé's slot, when the latter was pregnant with her twins. At the time, Lady Gaga had just released her studio album Joanne, a few months ago.

The 2025 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival will be streamed live on their official YouTube channel on April 11 at 4.00 pm PST / 7.00 pm EST. Fans can also choose to download Coachella Livestream App to experience the performances sitting at home.

According to PEOPLE, the app also allows the viewers to curate their personalized livestream schedule with reminders so that they don't miss the performances of their favorite artists. Fans are eagerly waiting to witness the much anticipated music festival.
