The 18-year-old singer provided an energetic opening performance that bristled with punkish abandon to greet early arrivals. Before concluding her set with her TikTok-driven breakthrough single “Abcdefu,” she performed Alanis Morissette’s classic “You Oughta Know” cover for the audience.
Hearing the stadium crowd sing along to her lyrics, she broke down in tears, saying, “I can’t believe this is happening to me.”
