During One Direction’s latest gig in Sao Paulo on Saturday night, legendary Brazilian footballer Pele made a surprise appearance - outing himself as a 1D fan and offering to get on stage and play alongside his heroes. Yes, really.
Popping up on the big screen for a cameo behind Harry, Louis, Liam, Niall and Zayn, the 73-year-old star stole the show at the Estadio Morumbi.The World Cup winner clutched five Brazilian football shirts and told the startled boys: “I admire and love you.
“I play the guitar and one day we’ll play together. I don’t want to play football, we’ll play guitar, OK? Welcome to Brazil again and good luck.”
Coming as the lads’ sell-out Where We Are global trek takes a short break, Pele went on to tip Brazil for this summer’s World Cup (for any football fans reading this).
Talks are being held between Pele and the band’s management to create the most amazing/surreal one-off supergroup.
