The Ghetto Kids could soon find themselves performing in front of millions of football fans worldwide after Shakira officially confirmed them for the 2026 FIFA World Cup final performance.
The Colombian superstar shared the exciting update while discussing the official World Cup song, Dai Dai, and the dance videos fans have continued creating around it.
During the message, Shakira said she wanted the final performance to feel special and unforgettable before revealing that she had already invited Uganda’s Ghetto Kids.
The word “unforgettable” immediately stood out to many fans because French Montana’s hit song “Unforgettable” featuring Swae Lee played a huge role in boosting the dance group’s international visibility.
French Montana famously traveled to Kampala after watching the children’s viral dance videos and later featured them in the official music video for the song.
The opportunity transformed the group’s international profile and eventually led to performances on major platforms such as The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon and the BET Awards.
Now, another giant global stage appears to be waiting for the Ugandan dancers as excitement continues building around the upcoming World Cup finals.
