Grammy-winning Nigerian artist Damini Ogulu, popularly known as Burna Boy, was seen lighting up the stage at Buckingham Palace on Tuesday during the trophy parade held in honor of the England Women’s National Team. The performance was delivered as part of the celebrations marking the Lionesses’ dramatic 3-1 penalty shootout triumph over Spain, following a 1-1 draw after extra time, a result that secured their successful defense of the European Championship title.
Burna Boy joined the jubilant team on stage and thrilled the massive crowd with his hit single For My Hand, a collaboration with British singer Ed Sheeran. His high-energy performance electrified the atmosphere, drawing enthusiastic reactions from coach Sarina Wiegman, the players, and over 100,000 fans gathered for the occasion.
This latest appearance adds to a growing list of milestone performances by the Nigerian star. In 2023, he became the first African artist to take the stage at a UEFA Champions League final, where he co-headlined the Kick-Off Show with Brazilian pop star Anitta. The event at Buckingham Palace further cemented Burna Boy’s status as a global music icon and cultural ambassador for African music.
