Celebrities Cheer U.S. Soccer Debut
About this episode
The episode covers the star-studded attendance at the U.S. men's national team's debut for the 2026 World Cup against Paraguay.
The U.S. men’s national team kicked off their 2026 World Cup campaign against Paraguay at SoFi Stadium, drawing a star-studded crowd despite President Trump’s absence—busy with his 80th birthday and a UFC event. He did send a quick motivational call, though. Tom Cruise, David Beckham, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Jason Sudeikis, George Lucas (nicknamed ‘Jedi’ by fans for his connection to U.S. player Antonee Robinson), Sofia Vergara (who even joined Telemundo’s panel), Owen Wilson, Vince Vaughn, Jamie Foxx, and Paris Hilton all turned out, fueling the electric atmosphere. Even LA Chargers’ Derwin James Jr. and his partner were there, proving soccer’s growing crossover appeal. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
