LISA
LISA, a member of the group BLACKPINK, appears ready to take the stage at the opening ceremony of the “2026 FIFA WORLD CUP”, the world’s largest football festival.
On May 8 (local time), the sports-specialized media outlet The Athletic, under the umbrella of the American daily New York Times, reported that LISA has signed a performance contract with FIFA.
As this North American World Cup is being co-hosted by three countries (United States, Canada, Mexico), the opening events are also expected to be held separately in each host country.
According to the report, LISA will take the stage before the match between the United States and Paraguay, which will be held at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles, USA. Global artists such as Katy Perry and DJ Sanjoy are also expected to be present at this location.
It is reported that Michael Bublé and Alessia Cara will participate in the opening ceremony in Toronto, Canada, while the rock group Maná is on the list of artists for the stage at Azteca Stadium in Mexico.
The opening shows in the United States and Canada are expected to last about 13 minutes each, while the show in Mexico is expected to last about 16 minutes and 30 seconds.
Attention is focused on the fact that another K-pop artist is joining a global stage such as the World Cup. Previously, JUNGKOOK of the group BTS had sparked great interest by presenting the official soundtrack “Dreamers” during the opening ceremony of the “2022 FIFA WORLD CUP, QATAR“. This time, LISA is expected to write a new page in history as a solo female K-pop artist.
