Tems Shines at Club World Cup Final with Historic Halftime Performance

Grammy-winning Nigerian singer Tems made history on Sunday night with a stunning performance at the FIFA Club World Cup final, becoming the first African artist to headline the tournament’s halftime show.
The performance took place at MetLife Stadium during the final clash between Chelsea and Paris Saint-Germain, where Chelsea secured a dominant 3–0 victory.
Dressed in an elegant Afrocentric ensemble, Tems captivated the global audience with her soulful voice and commanding stage presence. She delivered a powerful rendition of her hit single “Love Me JeJe”, a modern take on Seyi Sodimu’s 1997 classic. Her performance blended Afro-fusion rhythms with striking visuals that celebrated Nigerian culture on a world stage.
Tems shared the stage with international stars Doja Cat and J Balvin in a show curated by Coldplay’s Chris Martin and co-produced by FIFA and Global Citizen—part of a broader initiative to fuse music and football ahead of the 2026 World Cup.
Her appearance sparked widespread praise on social media, with fans applauding her vocal brilliance and the cultural significance of her performance. The moment marked not only a personal milestone for Tems but a landmark moment for African music in global entertainment.
As the spotlight fades from the Club World Cup final, Tems’ performance remains a highlight—proof of Africa’s rising influence in global pop culture.
