Kesha, Kanye And GNR Help Coachella Hit Nearly 4 Million Tweets In First Weekend


.Duff McKagan, Axl Rose and Slash of Guns N' Roses perform onstage during day 2 of the 2016 Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival Weekend 1 at the Empire Polo Club on April 16, 2016 in Indio, Calif..
.The first weekend of Coachella was packed with huge performances, anticipated reunions and so many surprise guests it kind of stopped being a surprise after a while. Except it clearly didn't, because the fest generated more than 3.8 million tweets, with Halseytopping the tally of the most-tweeted about performer thanks to her surprise duet with Brendon Urie from Panic! at the Disco.  
Just behind the "New Americana" singer on the most-tweeted list according to Twitter was Snoop Dogg, who blessed Ice Cube's set with bits of "Go to Church" and "The Next Episode" and Kanye West, who made a somewhat muted appearance during A$AP Rocky's performance on Friday and stood mute while Jack Uplayed "Power" during their set later that night.
​Not surprisingly, the reunited Guns N' Roses slid in at the #4 slot on the Twitter list, thanks to the first big stage sight of Axl Rose and Slash playing together again, not to mention an unannounced guest slot from AC/DC guitarist Angus Young. .
