On Tuesday, Coachella released its lineup of musical performers for the popular music festival. The list included Frank Ocean, Bad Bunny, Latto, Glorilla, and Idris Elba!
That’s right, the famed actor will be apart of a slew of performers putting on a show for the attendees. What many people don’t know, Idris is also a musician and DJ and will likely play on the smaller stage. Seeing the actor’s name on the list shocked many social media users while some already knew of his part time gig.
