Cody Simpson, a Musician and Former Australian swimmer, had the honor of singing his home nation’s national anthem before the first-ever NFL game held in Australia.
The anthem was met with a roaring crowd of more than 100,000 fans in Melbourne, as Simpson took the mic following a rendition of the national anthem of the United States.
This marked the first time Simpson had performed since managing a pair of injuries throughout the summer: a damaged vocal cord and a dislocated knee.

Simpson returned to swimming in 2019 after a 10-year hiatus to focus on his music career. Before his break, Simpson was a rising age-group talent.
He qualified to represent Australia at the 2022 Commonwealth Games, earning two medals at the meet; he won gold as part of the Aussie 4×100 free relay contingent and added another silver in the 4×100 medley relay as part of the prelim relay.
He later tried to qualify for the 2024 Paris Olympic Games, missed the team, and announced his retirement from competing shortly thereafter.
Simpson has spoken very highly of his time in the water, even posting on his Instagram story just about seven weeks ago reminiscing about his time in the sport.
2 years on from my time in this beautiful sport already. I’m so grateful to have returned to my first love and achieved the childhood dream. I can sleep peacefully forever. It was so important to me.
