How Can BTS, Madonna & Shakira All Squeeze Into an 11-Minute World Cup Halftime Show?

Written by: News Room Last updated: May 19, 2026

Madonna only had “4 Minutes” to save the world, and now the Queen of Pop, Shakira and BTS only have 11 minutes to stage the first-ever World Cup halftime show.

On the new Billboard Pop Shop Podcast, Katie & Keith are talking about how the three superstar acts might share their time during the 2026 World Cup final game on Sunday, July 19, at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey. One theory we have: Each act could have around three minutes to do a medley of their new music and their biggest hits, and then all three can come together for a new version of Shak’s just-released World Cup anthem “Dai Dai” (originally also featuring Burna Boy).

We’ll have to wait until the soccer world championship in July to find out, but in the meantime, listen to our conversation below.

Also on the show, we’ve got chart news on how Noah Kahan spends a third week atop the Billboard 200 albums chart with The Great Divide — and, perhaps shockingly, no rock album has spent at least three weeks at No. 1 in more than a decade. What was the last album? Listen to the podcast to find out! Plus, on the Billboard Hot 100 songs chart, Ella Langley hits double digits, with “Choosin’ Texas” spending a 10th week at No. 1, while Bruno Mars’ “Risk It All” returns to the top 10 after a Spanish-language version of the song dropped.

We also discuss Drake releasing a trio of new albums on Friday and how it could affect next week’s charts, as well as Harry Styles kicking off his Together, Together Tour with the first of 10 shows in Amsterdam.
