The Weeknd, the saddest of sad boys, seemed close to tears during his headlining performance at Coachella last night. In a series of videos posted online, Abel Tesfaye can be seen getting very emotional while singing “Call Out My Name†and “Privilege,†two of the songs from My Dear Melancholy that are maybe/probably/definitely about his recent breakup with Selena Gomez. Take a look at some of the footage below:

According to an article in Elle. Selena was not in the audience during the performance, but Justin Bieber and The Weeknd’s other ex-girlfriend, Bella Hadid, might have been? Oh, the melodrama.
