KATSEYE member Manon Bannerman has been dragged back into the spotlight after a photo, allegedly showing the singer in the crowd at Coachella 2026 while her group performed without her, went viral online. The image, shared widely by fans, appears to place the K-pop idol at Sabrina Carpenter's set at the California festival just as KATSEYE were delivering their own high-profile debut on the Sahara stage.
KATSEYE made their first major festival appearance at the 2026 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival with a tightly drilled five-member line-up. Daniela Avanzini, Lara Raj, Megan Skiendiel, Sophia Laforteza, and Yoonchae Jeung performed a high-energy set that critics and fans alike described as a statement moment for the HYBE x Geffen girl group.
