Zedd Hops On Drums For Surprise Cameo During Ariana Grande's iHeartRadio Music Festival Set

Ariana Grande makes it a point to keep tight with her former collaborators and her 2016 iHeartRadio Music Festival set on Saturday night (September 24) was proof of just that. Case in point: her onstage reunion with Zedd.

Decked out in an oversized yellow trench coat and tube top, Ari made way through goodies like "Into You," "Be Alright" and "Everything," but the real surprise arrived mid-set when she brought out a familiar face to the sold-out T-Mobile Arena.

"I want to bring a very special guest to the stage, ya'll," she said when introducing the EDM hit-maker. "He's pretty incredible, y'all." Instead of hopping on his turntables, the Russian-German DJ took the stage and hopped on a drum set for their 2014 mega-hit, "Break Free." If you needed any proof of the musical talents behind a DJ like Zedd, then here was your evidence. 

In related news, Ari had another fan in Charlamagne Thagod, who hit up the singer's dressing room prior to her set. If you missed out on the iHeartRadio Music Festival action, tune into the broadcast of the mega-concert October 6 and 7 on the CW.
