Pitbull brought the house down at BST Hyde Park on Friday, 10 July, with a performance that will be etched in fans' memories forever. But it wasn't just his chart-topping hits and electrifying energy that left the massive crowd breathless - he also played a blinder by setting a new Guinness World Record for the largest gathering of people wearing bald caps! This quirky trend has been building momentum since his previous shows, thanks to a social media push from BBC Radio 1's Greg James and TikTok sensation Jack Remmington.
The global superstar didn't hold back when it came to getting the crowd on their feet - he even busted out an unforgettable cover of Oasis' 'Wonderwall', which has become an unlikely anthem for England's World Cup squad. It turns out a mate suggested this belter as the perfect way to represent the English fans, and boy did it get them going! The classic track has been sung collectively by the team and their supporters after victories over Croatia, Panama, DR Congo, and even Mexico (where captain Harry Kane reportedly lost his voice from singing so enthusiastically with the fans).
Just hours before England's nail-biting 2-1 win against Norway on Saturday, 11 July, Pitbull got the party started with 'Wonderwall'. And what a time to bring it out - the team is now set to face Argentina in Atlanta, Georgia, on Wednesday, 15 July! The song's creators haven't gone unnoticed either; Noel Gallagher has given his seal of approval for 'Wonderwall' to become England's 2026 World Cup anthem, saying it's "for the people". Meanwhile, Liam Gallagher is ready to rock out with a live performance if England makes it to the final - and he's not just talking about singing, with reported Spotify streams in the UK up by 50%!
Kesha joined Pitbull on stage for an unforgettable reunion of their hit 'Timber', which they hadn't performed together since 2013. The BST Hyde Park event was truly one to remember - and it's clear that this incredible performance will be talked about for years to come.
