Would you want to see Drake perform at the FIFA World Cup Halftime show? Well, it just might happen!
The CEO of FIFA recently announced that they want to create an experience similar to what the NFL does for the Super Bowl, which means, for the first time ever, there could be a performer at the World Cup. Good Day New York’s host suggested that none other than Drake should be the one to take the stage.
Drake and FIFA: A Growing Connection
This potential performance could very well become a reality. FIFA CEO and Drake have crossed paths before, most notably when it was announced that the 2026 FIFA World Cup would be hosted across North America. The two were seen together at the announcement event, fuelling speculation that a collaboration might be in the works for the 2026 World Cup.
Fans Weigh In
As expected, the rumour mill has been buzzing. Fans have flooded online platforms with their opinions, and the conversation has even turned to comparisons between Kendrick Lamar’s Super Bowl performance and the potential FIFA World Cup Halftime show. People are eager to debate which artist would bring the best energy to the event. Some fans are even suggesting that Kendrick Lamar could be a strong contender for the World Cup stage.
In one TikTok video, fans discussed the impact of Kendrick’s Super Bowl performance, with some saying that it could set a high bar for any future performances, including at the World Cup.
The Reaction From Fans
Social media users have been vocal about their thoughts. One user joked, “I don’t know, maybe this guy could do it,” while others responded with enthusiasm, agreeing that Drake would be a perfect choice to represent the global stage of the World Cup.
