According to fans, Apa picked up the guitar to jam along with Kygo's hit It Ain't Me, and totally slayed. One fan wrote: "Oh my god, KJ Apa just slayed it...His solo was so incredible...I'm so proud of him".

While it was a surprise for some, KJ's fans have been waiting for this moment after he teased his performance on Instagram earlier this week, writing: "See ya on stage with @kygomusic #coachella."

The appearance puts KJ in good company too, as pop star Ariana Grande also made a guest appearance during Kygo's set.

Time for a music career, KJ? Fingers crossed.
