Burna Boy, Tems, And Rema To Headline The 2023 NBA All-Star Game Halftime Show

The NBA is going global for their upcoming halftime performance at the 2023 All-Star Game. The league has chosen Burna Boy, Tems, and Rema to lead this year’s Afrobeats-themed performance on Sunday, February 19 in Salt Lake City, Utah.

Post Malone, along with the three Afrobeats superstars, will open the event with a mix of songs. Jewel will sing the National Anthem, and Fast and Furious actor Vin Diesel will introduce the newly selected NBA All-Stars. The league will also honor LeBron James for breaking the scoring record two weeks ago. Last year, the NBA invited DJ Khaled to perform at the halftime show, and he invited Mary J. Blige, Snoop Dogg, Lil Wayne, and others.
