FIFA Recruits Coldplay’s Chris Martin To Find Artists For World Cup Halftime Show
FIFA World Cup
Calls On Coldplay’s Chris Martin
… Find Performers For First Halftime Show!
Published
FIFA’s preparing for the 2026 World Cup, and they’re taking a page out of the NFL’s playbook … tasking Coldplay’s Chris Martin and Phil Harvey with finding famous artists to perform the first halftime show at the world’s biggest sporting event!
In other words, Chris is FIFA’s Jay-Z.
Gianni Infantino, president of FIFA, announced news of the partnership on Wednesday at a press event in Dallas … where they discussed plans for the upcoming 2026 World Cup in North America.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
“I can confirm the first ever half-time show at a FIFA World Cup final in New York New Jersey, in association with Global Citizen. This will be a historic moment for the FIFA World Cup and a show befitting the biggest sporting event in the world.”
Much like how the NFL works with Roc Nation and Hov to find the perfect artist to perform the Super Bowl halftime show, the soccer body will work with Martin, lead vocalist and primary songwriter, and Harvey, the band’s manager, to develop a list of potential artists for the gig.
It’s unclear whether Coldplay will be a part of the show.
Intermission during soccer games usually runs for about 15 minutes … but as the National Football League does for Super Sunday, FIFA could extend the intermission, allowing performers more time.

Coldplay knows how to put on a big show, so expect nothing less at the highly anticipated World Cup Final on July 19, 2026!
Nancy Grace
Casey Anthony Legal Advocacy Is a Money Grab!!!
Published
TMZ.com
Nancy Grace is scoffing at Casey Anthony‘s new career pursuit — slamming her new legal advocacy gig as a shameless cash grab and insisting the focus should remain on Casey’s murdered daughter, Caylee.
TMZ spoke with Nancy, and she didn’t sugarcoat it — telling us Casey’s just looking for a payday, reaching into everyone else’s pockets. But what stunned her the most is the fact so many people have already signed up for Casey’s Substack to take advice from her.
Watch the video — Nancy goes in on Casey, reminding everyone her so-called “legal expertise” comes from being tried for murder. She also makes it crystal clear — pretending to be a lawyer and dishing out legal advice for money is illegal. Casey announced her new Substack in a TikTok video this week.
As for Nancy’s main concern … she brings it all back to justice for Caylee, who was 2 years old when she was killed — reminding everyone of the grisly details of her tragic murder.
Caylee vanished in June ’08, and her remains were found months later, sparking a media firestorm that only grew more intense during Casey’s trial.
Casey was found not guilty of murder, manslaughter, and child abuse in July 2011 — but Nancy tells us that anyone giving Casey even a penny is basically casting another “not guilty” vote in her favor.
It’s a sentiment echoed by retired Judge Belvin Perry Jr., who presided over the infamous trial. He says she’s not just out to make cold, hard cash — she’s also chasing fame after being out of the spotlight for so long.
