Hailey Bieber looked nothing short of sensational while modeling a plunging black swimsuit during a poolside photoshoot at the Chateau Marmont in West Hollywood.
Amid reports she was a ‘big influence’ on her husband Justin’s decision to headline Coachella 2026, the supermodel, 28, showed off her athleticism as she struck confident poses on a diving board overlooking the hotel’s iconic pool.
All eyes were on the mother-of-one as she showcased her statuesque figure in a daring one-piece, which featured a deep neckline and high-cut legs, elongating her toned frame.
She styled the swimsuit with strappy stilettos, which did not stop her from walking fearlessly toward the edge of the slim board with poise and ease.
At one point, the Rhode founder leaned forward to adjust the neckline of her suit, later sitting on the board to dangle her long legs over the turquoise water.
In between flashing smoldering looks to the camera, the beauty broke into a smile, appearing relaxed and playful in between shots.
Hailey Bieber looked nothing short of sensational while modeling a plunging black swimsuit during a poolside photoshoot at the Chateau Marmont in West Hollywood
The photoshoot took place at the legendary Chateau Marmont, a private Hollywood hideaway with more than a century of star-studded history.
The backdrop added a timeless, glamorous edge to Hailey’s shoot, cementing her status as one of the industry’s reigning fashion icons.
Her sighting comes on the same day an insider told Us Weekly that Hailey ‘was a big influence on Justin’s decision to headline Coachella.’
‘She nudged him and is always in his corner hyping him up,’ the source explained. ‘He feels this is the best way to share his new music with fans and is very excited about the opportunity.’
Although Justin has declined offers to headline in the past, the insider emphasized: ‘Hailey was definitely the driving force behind Justin doing Coachella.’
‘As someone who grew up on his music, she always reminds him that he’s the Justin Bieber,’ they explained. ‘She knows firsthand how much it means to his fans to see him back on stage, so she was like, “You have to do this!”‘
With seven months until the festival, sources say Justin is already working on what his performance will look like.
‘He wants to showcase his Swag albums but will also do a lot of his older hits,’ one insider revealed. ‘The goal is to make it a celebration of his career and where he’s at now. He’s already throwing out ideas for special guests too.’

Another source added that Justin feels ‘he is having a rebirth in this new era’ and sees Coachella as a chance to ‘redefine himself.’
‘He feels like he’s been given a second chance to redefine himself and finally step into the man he was always meant to be,’ the insider said.
Last week, sources confirmed to Rolling Stone that Justin, 31, secured a record-breaking paycheck of more than $10 million to do the festival.
The two-weekend deal not only makes him the highest-paid performer in the event’s history, over performers like Beyoncé, Lady Gaga, Kanye West and The Weeknd.

Unlike most headliners who rely on powerhouse agencies to broker deals, Bieber negotiated directly with Goldenvoice, the festival’s promoter.
‘It’s a groundbreaking move for a headliner, and it’s something he built entirely on his own,’ a source close to the singer told the outlet. ‘Between headlining Coachella and the success of Swag, it’s clear this is the start of an exciting new era for Justin — one where he’s fully in the driver’s seat.’
Insiders say Bieber’s fee surpasses $5 million per weekend, a figure that puts him well above past Coachella payouts.
Although Coachella never reveals how much they pay artists, speculative reports online have surfaced over the years for past acts.
The backdrop added a timeless, glamorous edge to Hailey’s shoot, cementing her status as one of the industry’s reigning fashion icons.

Bad Bunny, who was one of the headliners for 2023’s Coachella, allegedly got paid $5 million, per the Trapital Podcast.
Meanwhile, The Weeknd reportedly asked for $8.5 million and Ariana Grande is said to have taken home $8 million.
Billboard previously reported that Beyoncé made somewhere between $8-$12 million for headlining in 2018.
A year prior, The New Yorker reported that Lady Gaga, Kendrick Lamar and Radiohead each earned $3-4 million for their performances in 2017.

Goldenvoice’s parent company, AEG, has long partnered with Bieber on his touring career, but this marks the first time he’s personally stepped into the negotiating room.
According to those close to him, he’s preparing something far beyond a standard festival set.
‘Bieber is an unshakeable artist who has stood up against the grain and fought for his independence,’ the source added. ‘His 2026 Coachella performance won’t just be a headlining set, but a once-in-a-generation spectacle from a once-in-a-generation pop icon.’
Bieber’s comeback arrives on the heels of his latest two-part album project, Swag I and Swag II.
With seven months until the festival, sources say Justin is already working on what his performance will look like
‘He wants to showcase his Swag albums but will also do a lot of his older hits,’ one insider revealed. ‘The goal is to make it a celebration of his career and where he’s at now’
Industry insiders say the strategy to pair the albums, initially conceived as back-to-back releases, helped safeguard Bieber’s chart momentum.
Still, label executives stress that Bieber deserves the credit for driving the project.
‘Justin Bieber and his team are the driving forces behind both albums and their rollouts,’ a rep for Def Jam, part of Republic Collective, said.
Sources say he had ‘100 percent creative freedom’ on Swag, allowing him to strip away industry noise and reintroduce himself in his truest form.
‘This is the purest version of Justin we’ve ever seen musically,’ one insider noted.
Last week, sources confirmed to Rolling Stone that Justin, 31, secured a record-breaking paycheck of more than $10 million to do the festival (pictured in 2022)
The major payday comes after he reportedly agreed to hand over millions to his ex-manager Scooter Braun as their years-long financial dispute comes to an end.
In July, the Baby hitmaker and the SB Projects founder, 44, finally reached a settlement agreement that will reportedly cost Bieber over $30million, per TMZ.
After Bieber cancelled his Justice tour in 2022, Braun’s company HYBE America helped the singer pay back $26million of the original $40million advance he received from AEG.
Bieber had allegedly agreed to pay back the money over a 10-year period but allegedly stopped making payments to HYBE after the first installment.
Braun also previously claimed that Bieber owed him several million dollars in unpaid commissions.
