Transcript
Do not glamorize VIP and artist passes at Coachella. First of all, I wanna acknowledge my privilege and say I'm so grateful to even be able to attend events like this and to have access to things like these VIP and artist passes. But I must say, for the most part, people in these crowds are not actually enjoying these moments, and instead they have this strange social gluttony of always talking about and looking for the next thing. And yes, during the Justin Bieber performance, the people in general admission were so present and so grateful for the moment they were sharing. And for some reason when it becomes VIP or artist passi, people stop acknowledging the beauty of these events and that whole acknowledgment and celebration of a moment becomes lame and they actually become greedy and gluttonous and all they talk about is what's next. So unless you can acknowledge that you have a deeper desire for status and recognition than you do for substance and moments you can actually enjoy with those you love.
