Coachella Weekend came to a close on Sunday night – and while Weekend One attendees got a surprise (weird) performance from Madonna, Weekend Two saw Nikki Minaj on stage…just not performing.
First, Minaj joined David Guetta to promote their new single “Hey Mama.” But she did not perform it. Rather, she lip synced a verse, blew the crowd a kiss and left the stage.

Later, Minaj was called to the stage by Drake. She came out for “Truffle Butter”. This time she strutted a bit, blew a kiss, hugged drake, and then left.
