Justin Bieber<\/a> famously got his start on YouTube, but now he’s making his mark on another video platform.\n<\/p>\n

The “Peaches” singer surprised fans Wednesday when he popped up on the livestreaming service Twitch<\/a>, promising followers that it would be far from the only time they’d see him there while he gears up to headline Coachella<\/a> next year.\n<\/p>\n

“This is our space for the next few months, so excited,” Bieber said, per Billboard<\/a>. “I’m gonna be putting on a hell of a show for you guys at Coachella. I can’t wait. So getting ready, getting the gang together, get inspired.”\n<\/p>\n

Bieber encouraged fans to tune in, because he’ll be filming “pretty much every day.” He added, “It’s gonna be awesome.”<\/p>\n

Friday’s stream featured Bieber and some friends shooting basketball while being critiqued by a pro and having a serious conversation about the game around a table. Previous streams have featured a look at the setup for his shows, as well as Bieber skateboarding and shooting pool.\n<\/p>\n

The Canadian singer, 31, was just 12 when he began posting clips of himself singing songs by Alicia Keys, Ne-Yo, and Lil Bow Wow on YouTube. It was there that he was discovered by Scooter Braun, his now-former manager.\n<\/p>\n

Eight albums into his career, Bieber is making a foray into livestreaming six months before his big performance at the annual music and arts fest in Indio, Calif. Bieber is topping the Coachella bill<\/a> alongside Sabrina Carpenter and Karol G.\n<\/p>\n

Other artists performing include Devo, Moby, Teddy Swims, the Strokes, Addison Rae, David Byrne, Interpol, Young Thug, Iggy Pop, FKA Twigs, and a collaboration between Trent Reznor’s Nine Inch Nails and Boys Noize dubbed Nine Inch Noize.\n<\/p>\n

Reports have estimated that Bieber will collect a $10 million paycheck for the job, which would make him the festival’s highest-paid act ever.\n<\/p>\n
