Tyla’s appearance at Coachella 2025 made headlines after her outfit stirred up debate online. She stepped onto the Outdoor Theatre stage in a look that immediately drew comparisons to Britney Spears’ 2001 VMAs ensemble. Now, Tyla took to social media to clear the air.

What did Tyla say about her Coachella 2025 outfit?

After making headlines for her Coachella 2025 appearance, Tyla responded to fans who compared her stage outfit to Britney Spears’ iconic look from the 2001 MTV Video Music Awards. The Grammy-winning South African singer took to X (formerly Twitter) to clarify that Spears was not the inspiration.

Responding to online speculations, Tyla wrote, “Love her but I just thought the outfit was fly… no inspo.” Despite her statement, many commenters criticized the “Push 2 Start” singer in the replies. One user wrote, “Guys am I dumb or what ?? If you see something and you like it and you decide to copy it or redo it , aren’t you inspired ?”

Another commented, “Everyone in pop culture KNOWS this is a Britney styled look rather you thought it was cute / didn’t know shows how out of touch you are in the industry you’re trying to get into.” But Tyla also received support from fans, who defended her and pushed back against the criticism in the comments.

The controversy started after Tyla performed during the second weekend of the 2025 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival when she took the stage on Friday, April 18, in California. The singer performed on the Outdoor Theatre stage wearing a bold outfit that immediately grabbed attention.

Tyla’s green and purple embellished top paired with crystal-drenched denim shorts. It was styled with fishnet stockings and boots that reached to her knees. Her look was pulled from Dolce & Gabbana’s 2000 archives. However, it quickly drew comparisons to Britney Spears’ look.
