Celebrities at Coachella: An Exhaustive Visual History
The festival's star-power isn't just reserved for the stage.
For two weekends every April, thousands and thousands of people descend upon Coachella Valley in Indio, California, for the highly anticipated Coachella music festival. Certain celebrities attend almost every year—10-plus-year veteran Vanessa Hudgens chief among them—and the likes of Kendall Jenner, Hailey Bieber, and Irina Shayk are always among the barrage of models who make the trek to the desert.
And then there are the unexpected. How Danny DeVito and Clint Eastwood ended up traipsing the grounds, we may never know, but the image of them in attendance is a delight. Here, an exhaustive look back at all the famous faces who have attended Coachella.
Busy Philipps
Philipps epitomized mid-aughts fashion when she slung a belt around her waist in 2006.
