FEATURING AN ALL-STAR CAST OF FOOTBALL PLAYERS

MIAMI, FL – Shakira and Burna Boy released the video for their new track “Dai Dai,” the official song of the FIFA World Cup 2026™, in support of the FIFA Global Citizen Education Fund.  Watch HERE.  The video was shot in Miami and directed by Hannah Lux Davis. It features a compilation of soccer stars Lionel Messi, Harry Kane, Kylian Mbappé, Rodrigo Hernández (Rodri), Vinícius Júnior, Takefusa Kubo, Santiago Giménez, Erling Haaland, Luis Díaz, Alphonso Davies, Jamal Musiala and Christian Pulisic.

The video also features Ghetto Kids Uganda, a life-changing NGO dedicated to supporting orphaned, street, and vulnerable children through music, dance, and drama. By turning talent into opportunity, the organization provides education, shelter, healthcare, food, and hope for a brighter future while helping children stay away from the hardships of street life.

The video shows Shakira atop Mexico City’s Angel de la Independencia, one of Mexico’s most iconic landmarks on the emblematic Reforma Avenue. It serves as a visual tribute to a country that has played an important role throughout her career, with special thanks to the capital’s tourism campaign “Ciudad de México Corazón Grande” for its support in bringing this moment to life.

Shakira will co-headline the FIFA World Cup 2026™Final Halftime Show on Sunday, July 19, alongside Madonna and BTS. She will perform Dai Dai with Burna Boy. For the first time in FIFA World Cup™ history, the final will feature a halftime show, bringing together global artists for a singular moment at the intersection of sport, culture, and purpose, to support the FIFA Global Citizen Education Fund.

As announced last week at Global Citizen NOW in New York, ‘Dai Dai’ will be the official anthem of the FIFA Global Citizen Education Fund, which aims to raise USD $100 million by the FIFA World Cup 2026™ Final to provide children in underserved communities around the world with access to quality education and sports. Shakira’s royalties from ‘Dai Dai’ are being donated to the Education Fund, and Sony Music will match the first $250,000 raised with a donation. Additionally, Shakira is donating $1 from every ticket sold to her upcoming ‘Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran’ tour to the Education Fund.

In October, Shakira will headline an 11-night stadium European residency based in Madrid, with a stadium named ‘Shakira Stadium’ being built especially for her, and has already sold more than half a million tickets.

For Burna Boy, the collaboration marks another defining global moment in a career that continues to bridge music, sport, and culture on an unprecedented scale. Widely recognized as one of the most influential African artists of his generation, Burna Boy has become synonymous with stadium-level performance, global musical fusion, and the international rise of African music and culture. From headlining arenas and stadiums across the world to performing at the NBA All-Star Game and building major partnerships at the intersection of music and sport, Burna Boy continues to redefine what global African artistry looks like at the highest level.  Burna Boy is currently in the midst of an expansive international run that continues to cement his position as one of the world’s leading live performers and cultural voices
