The Coachella Instagram clichés no celebrity can resist

There was a time when music festivals were all about being sweaty, smelly and caked in mud. You could abandon the make-up for a weekend, survive off baby wipes and some lip balm and dance around in your wellies to all your favourite bands.
Then celebs got in on the action – the types who before wouldn’t have been caught dead within an acre of a portaloo, or pitching a tent. But hey, when there’s social media and VIP areas, it's a pretty different ballgame.
And with the influx of celebs, came a batch of clichés that we see popping up every time it's festival season. And for some reason, Coachella is the cliché leader.
Here are some of our favourites...
