Ayra Starr performed at halftime of the Philadelphia Eagles' game against the Jacksonville Jaguars in London on Sunday, October 11.
The Nigerian singer took the stage at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium during the game. According to Vanguard, her set included six songs: “Heaven Baby,” “Santa,” “Rush,” “Dangerous,” “Hot Body” and “Ms. Paper.”
The NFL named Starr as the show's performer in August. Before travelling to London for the game, she spoke to BBC Newsbeat about the appearance.
Starr's music career took off with the release of her self-titled debut EP in 2021, followed by her album 19 & Dangerous later that year. The album included “Bloody Samaritan.” She released “Rush” in 2022, which earned her a Grammy nomination for Best African Music Performance.
She has since received another Grammy nomination in the same category for “Gimme Dat,” her collaboration with Wizkid. Starr has also won the BET Award for Best International Act and appeared at Glastonbury Festival in the UK.
Her third studio album, Starrgirl, came out on August 30, 2026. Zayn, Leon Thomas and Wizkid are among the artists featured on the project.
The game itself ended in a narrow win for Jacksonville. Cam Little kicked a 57-yard field goal with one second left to give the Jaguars a 19–17 victory. Trevor Lawrence threw for 331 yards and two touchdowns for Jacksonville, while Philadelphia's Jalen Hurts finished with 220 passing yards.
