During the conversation, Shakira revealed she’s still figuring out how to make her final performance distinct from what she did at the tournament’s opening ceremony. “I played at the inauguration, and now I’m playing at the final,” she said. “I’ve got to wrap my head around it, make it a little different from what I did at the inauguration.”
She went on to hint at the scale of the performance: “It’s going to be a shared halftime show … it’s going to be pretty historic, five amazing artists, well four amazing artists plus me.” Shakira then name-checked some of the expected talent, saying, “Madonna is going to be there, BTS, Bieber, Coldplay,” before adding that she hopes Chris Martin joins in as well: “I really hope that Chris Martin is going to be singing too.”
“We’ll all get together and we’ll all figure it out how it’s gonna be, but I’m really curious,” she added. “I’m as curious as you are right now!”
The comments come a day after FIFA and Global Citizen announced that Bieber would be joining the halftime show as a co-headliner alongside previously announced superstars BTS, Shakira and Madonna for the first-ever FIFA World Cup Final Halftime Show at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J., on July 19, with Martin curating the 11-minute event.
The “Waka Waka” hitmaker is also enjoying a major World Cup moment on the charts. Her Burna Boy collaboration “Dai Dai (FIFA World Cup Official Song 2026)” recently scored a second week at No. 1 on the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. chart, becoming the first official World Cup anthem ever to top the ranking. The song also jumped to No. 3 on the Billboard Global 200, powered by 34.4 million streams and 4,000 sold outside the U.S. in the latest tracking week, according to Luminate.
