Every celebrity at the FIFA World Cup 2026 games — Shakira, KPop Demon Hunters’ EJAE and more

Shakira is to the World Cup what Mariah Carey is to Christmas. The singer has created hit anthems for the 2010 and 2014 competitions including “Waka Waka (This Time for Africa),” and “La La La (Brazil 2014). “Waka Waka” made the Guinness World Record for its over 15 million worldwide downloads.

The star put out the catchy song “Dai Dai” and she performed it alongside Burna Boy during the World Cup’s opening ceremony. The duo will reunite to perform it again for FIFA’s first-ever halftime show during the finale next month.

Shakira is not only the face of the tournament, but she’s also a huge soccer fan, which means she’s expected to watch from the sidelines as well.

J Balvin worked hand-in-hand with World Cup sponsor Coca-Cola and released a catchy song called “JUMP” for the brand.

The Colombian singer also performed during the opening ceremony, as he took the stage with a group of colorful and energetic dancers.

Andrea Boccelli and EJAE performed the live debut of their song “DNA” at the opening ceremony. 

EJAE donned a gorgeous indigo and white dress with white flowers, as Andrea donned a maroon blazer over a black vest and black pants. 

The pair warmly embraced, held hands and took a bow together after sang together.  

Salma Hayak attended the opening ceremony as a presenter alongside FIFA president Gianni Infantino onstage. The star is the official global ambassador for the tournament. 

She sported a red power suit and black gloves as she proudly held the trophy in her hands.

Jaime Camil also attended the opening match between Mexico and South Africa. 

He shared a behind-the-scenes look of his experience getting into the crowded arena and the high energy inside, on his Instagram stories. 

He donned a black Adidas sweatsuit with the colors of the Mexican flag on the sleeves.

Tyla also performed at the opening ceremony and she gave a sweet shout out to her African roots by donning a color-blocking dress to represent her flag, as she belted out the South African national anthem.

Becky G also paid tribute to her roots by rocking a Mexico jersey as she cheered for them during the intense match.
