Jackson Wang fans who attended the first weekend of the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival were in for a surprise. The K-pop band GOT7 rapper brought Ciara on stage to perform some of her greatest hits, including “1, 2 Step,” “Level Up” and “Goodies.” She donned new colorful long hair—very on-brand for Coachella—and a custom all-white number from Dolce & Gabbana.

It’s safe to say fans were totally shocked when the singer made her dramatic arrival on stage and yelled, “Ciara’s in the house!”

“the way i was gagged my jaw dropped on the floor,” one fan tweeted. “like i wasn't expecting this at all??? how tf did he know ciara? jackson wang you are an insane man.”

Following Wang’s set on Saturday, the duo dropped a major announcement on Instagram—the release of their new song, “Slow.”

“Let’s go Jackson! Vibes on Vibes on Vibes! #Slow 😎,” The mom of three wrote.

Fans also were mesmerized by one of Ciara’s signature impressive dance moves on stage. She leaned back further and further with her knees bent and held an extremely low position while balancing on her toes. She’s been doing the move for more than a decade, and in a 2009 interview, in which she performed the move in stilettos, she revealed that it’s called the “Matrix.”
