Burna Boy to headline halftime at the NFL’s first regular-season game in Paris

Burna Boy is set to headline the halftime show at the NFL's first regular-season game in Paris, scheduled for October 25th. The performance will take place at Stade de France, marking a return to the stadium for the Grammy-winning Nigerian artist, who last year became the first African act to headline there. The NFL's international season is expanding to more countries and continents, with seven halftime shows scheduled across the globe.

Burna Boy's selection for the Paris game is attributed to his history with the stadium and the growing popularity of African music in Paris. He joins a lineup of other international acts, including Ricky Martin, Ayra Starr, Cage the Elephant, and The Warning.
