Justin Bieber is reportedly in talks to perform at the halftime show of the FIFA World Cup final at MetLife Stadium on July 19 in New Jersey, according to TMZ.
Bieber is among several artists being considered for the inaugural halftime performance alongside reportedly Madonna, Shakira, and BTS. FIFA has yet to confirm any performers for the event, which is being produced in partnership with Global Citizen to create a Super Bowl-style spectacle.
The Stratford, Ontario-born singer attended the World Cup opening ceremony earlier this week alongside his wife, Hailey, and surprised VIP guests with an intimate backstage performance of his song "Yukon."
If confirmed, the performance would mark a significant appearance for Bieber, who has kept a relatively low public profile in recent years. Fan reactions online have been mixed, with some Beliebers expressing excitement about a potential performance of his hits like "Baby" or "Love Yourself," while others have expressed skepticism based on his Coachella performance.
An official lineup for the halftime show is expected to be announced, and Bieber's involvement remains unconfirmed.
