Beyoncé is set to perform during the World Cup 2010 at Orlando Stadium in Soweto. FIFA has called upon Live Earth creator, Kevin Wall, to produce the event who hopes that Beyoncé will bring a 'Live 8 concert feel' to the opening ceremonies.
The 2010 World Cup in South Africa kicks off next summer. Congratulations Beyoncé!
... wow <3 ... Juanes i think did it last time... While Shakira was honored to perform right before the last game... it is estimated that about 1.5 billion people watched it last time ...
uhm.... Who is gonna do the last performance right before the final game ??? has that been announced
If someone can bring in new audiences for a sport, why would that be a bad thing? Having Beyonce perform will get some people to tune in who really didn't care much for soccer/"football" before, and some of those people might get hooked (^_^)
