I imagine that has sometime to do halftime of soccer games traditionally being no more than 15 minutes long.
It takes much longer than that for Kendrick Lamar to call Drake a pedophile.
No event has more pomp and circumstance than the World Cup.
The whole thing is a spectacle from start to finish.
And in 2026, the World Cup will be in the United States.
This has to be the biggest international audience an artist has ever performed for.
In the history of time.
And that didn’t even come close to touching the 2022 World Cup Final, which had 571 million.
There’s no word yet on who will be performing during halftime at MetLife Stadium in 2026.
Shakira always plays with an international audience.
Part of me thinks this thing has Bad Bunny’s name written all over it.
I’m actually kind of excited to see who they pick now.
I would guess they end up going with multiple big time names sharing a stage at once.
This a big moment.
Not so much for me.
But for the world.
For the beautiful game.
It’ll most watched halftime show in the history of the world.
But it’ll be up there.
