Tones And I reveals why she turned down NRL grand final
Tones And I has broken her silence after the NRL declared it will forego a grand final tradition of pre-match entertainment.
Australian pop star Tones And I has declined an offer to perform at the upcoming NRL grand final's pre-match entertainment. Her management explained that a prior commitment with American rapper Macklemore in America was a sticking point. ARLC chair Peter V Landys expressed disappointment over the decision but praised Tones And I's talent.
The NRL will use the funds set aside for the pre-match entertainment to support underprivileged children playing rugby league. This marks a significant departure from tradition, as past performances have featured international pop stars like Teddy Swims, Billy Idol, and Tina Turner.
