Ayra Starr is taking her ‘Starrgirl’ era to one of her biggest stages yet.
Fresh from the release of her new album, the Afrobeats force has been tapped to headline the halftime show at the 2026 NFL London Game.
And it will see Starr bring her growing arsenal of anthems to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

The NFL announced that the Nigerian star will perform during the Philadelphia Eagles vs Jacksonville Jaguars game on October 11.
Sharing her excitement, Starr said:
“I am so excited to perform at the NFL halftime show in London. London is one of my favorite places in the world and to bring Starrgirl to the NFL global stage is a dream come true for me. I can’t wait to see you guys there!”
The performance arrives at a particularly potent point in the Nigerian diva’s ascent.
As reported, the 24-year-old unleashed her third studio album ‘Starrgirl’ earlier this month. The 16-track project boasts collaborations with ZAYN, Wizkid, Rema, Leon Thomas, and more.
She has also been making her presence felt in London, recently lighting up All Points East 2026 alongside Tems and Jorja Smith.
Starr’s full NFL halftime performance will air live in the UK on 5 and Sky Sports.
Exciting times!
