Justin Bieber has joined the lineup for the first FIFA World Cup halftime show.
The Daisies hitmaker will join the likes of Madonna, Shakira and BTS for the final at the MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey on July 19.
Justin, 32, said: “The FIFA World Cup brings the world together in a way nothing else can. I’m grateful to be part of this halftime show, and even more grateful knowing it’s already helping expand access to education for children around the world.”
Chris Martin has curated the lineup, which also includes Burna Boy and Gustavo Dudamel, while Coldplay are due to perform with the PS22 Chorus and the Sesame Street Muppets.
The concert will raise funds for the FIFA Global Citizen Education Fund.
It’s also rumoured that Robbie Williams will join Italian pop star Laura Pausini to perform their official FIFA anthem Desire on the pitch.
The opening ceremony in Mexico City featured Shakira, Burna Boy and J Balvin.
Shakira and Burna Boy have been storming the charts with the official FIFA World Cup anthem, Dai Dai.
The track became the most-streamed song on Spotify globally, as well as topping the Billboard Global Chart.
Dai Dai, which fuses Latin and pop rhythm with Nigerian afrobeat, was released in support of the FIFA Global Citizen Education Fund.
Shakira has partnered with Global Citizen and FIFA to provide access to education for children in underserved communities.
Her royalties from Dai Dai are being donated to the Education Fund, while Sony Music vowed to match the first $250,000 raised with a donation.
