Every major celebrity spotted at the 2026 World Cup final

Spain and Argentina played for the World Cup trophy, but honestly the stands might have been the most star-studded lineup of the entire tournament because half of Hollywood, half the music industry, and apparently a few world leaders all showed up to MetLife Stadium at once. Jay-Z and Beyonce brought courtside energy to soccer, while Rihanna and A$AP Rocky matched their power couple presence. Tom Cruise delivered a hype speech during the closing ceremony, and Matt Damon showed up with wife Luciana, doubling as a victory lap after the Odyssey's massive opening. Timothée Chalamet and Kylie Jenner continued their sporting event world tour, and David and Victoria Beckham made it a family affair with son Romeo. Will Ferrell, Kevin Hart, Austin Butler, Adrian Brody, Trevor Noah, Richard Gere, Jon Hamm, Julia Garner, Javier Bardem, Serena Williams, Pharrell Williams, Mr. Beast, and Scott Eastwood all made appearances too, alongside New York Knicks champions Jalen Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns, plus Giants stars Jackson Dart and Odell Beckham Jr. Gail King and Chloe Mal repped the media world, while Mick Jagger reportedly enjoyed the match from his own seat as well. Nike's Dove suite brought a different energy, hosting 21 Savage, Yate, and Central C, while Mike Tyson, Martha Stewart, Sofia Vergara, and Common rounded out the guest list. Tate McRae kept things casual courtside, and Matthew Broderick fully committed, wearing an actual World Cup Final cap. The halftime show made genuine history too, marking the very first official World Cup Final halftime performance ever, featuring Madonna, Shakira, BTS, and Justin Bieber, with Ted Lasso cast members and legendary former players making surprise cameo appearances throughout. World leaders were in the mix as well, with President Trump attending alongside First Lady Melania Trump, seated with FIFA President Gianni Infantino, Mexico's President Claudia Sheinbaum, and Canada's Prime Minister Mark Carney, giving the entire event a genuinely global feel beyond just the celebrity guest list. Jennifer Hudson opened with the national anthem, Post Malone hyped the pre-match crowd, and by the final whistle, this was already crowned the most star-studded match in FIFA history. Soccer's biggest stage just became pop culture's biggest stage too. Which celebrity sighting surprised you most? Tell us below!
