Green Day and Charli XCX’s Coachella Non-Feud Gets the Goofy End It Deserves

The great Charli XCX/Green Day non-feud of Coachella 2025 has officially come to a conciliatory end. If that combination of words reads as utterly incomprehensible (or utterly inconsequential) slop — please, let us explain. 

Last week, after the first weekend of Coachella, Charli shared a photo dump that included a shot of her at an after party next to fiancé George Daniel, looking very not demure, very Brat in a pageant sash emblazoned with: “Miss Should Be Headliner.” 

As Charli was second-billed on the festival’s Saturday lineups, many took this as a dig at the night’s official headliners, Green Day. As such, rumor, speculation, and Stan-centric social media squabbling followed on Twitter, though neither Charli nor Green Day (smartly) made any further comments on the matter in between the festival’s first two weekends.

Finally, Green Day did respond, and in characteristically cheeky and slightly self-deprecating fashion. At some point, a photo surfaced online of drummer Tré Cool wearing a sash of his own: This one ostensibly made out of toilet paper and emblazoned with the words, “Actual Headliner.”

Proving the whole thing was nothing to waste any energy bickering over, Charli herself re-tweeted Cool’s photo on X, writing, “Obsessed.”
