Alicia Keys, Shakira, Black Eyed Peas and John Legend will perform at the World Cup kickoff concert in Johannesburg. FIFA announced the lineup of musical stars Wednesday for the concert on June 10, the day before the opening match. The concert also will feature a strong African presence with South African folk singer Vusi Mahlasela and Malian artists Amadou and Mariam. South African rock bands BLK JKS and The Parlotones also will perform as the country prepares to be the first African host in the 80-year history of the tournament.

I always get excited when the World Cup comes around! :cheer: It's one of the only times my interest in football becomes substantial, although I do have a vague interest in the Champions League and Premiership each season. Anyway, to know that these musicians are going to be performing on the opening day is going to be brilliant! :D They're all amazing! And I'm glad and interested to see the African musicians performing there :) . Should be atmospheric and amazing! :)
