Tinashe brought incredible star power to Dodger Stadium on Tuesday night.

The multi-platinum R&B singer stepped out on the field and performed the U.S. national anthem at World Series Game 4.


Deborah Cox sang “O Canada” just before Tinashe’s rendition. She also received resounding praise, unlike Toronto singer-songwriter JP Saxe, who got slammed online for changing lyrics to the anthem before Game 3.

The Grammy-nominated Toronto singer-songwriter changed the traditional lyric “Our home and native land,” to “Our home on native land.”

Singing the Anthem inside Dodger Stadium can make or break you. Vanessa Hernández found that out the hard way when she got banned forever for singing “The Star-Spangled Banner” in Spanish in protest of ICE raids.

Tinashe has most certainly set herself up to perform the Anthem again in the future.

“That national anthem was beautiful! Well done, @Tinashe,” one fan said.


“That Star Stangled Banner was so beautiful by Tinashe 10/10,” a second fan wrote.

“Tinashe, beautiful singing of the U.S. national anthem,” a third fan commented.

“Tinashe is probably the most beautiful human on the planet,” one final fan added.


Singer Tinashe dazzled the Dodger Stadium crowd on Tuesday night with her rendition of “The Star-Spangled Banner,” which is something she has done before.

She sang the U.S. national anthem at Dodger Stadium in 2023 prior to a baseball game.

She has sold multi-platinum records worldwide. Her powerful voice and stage presence make her perfect for massive events.

As for the game, there would be no 18-inning affair this time around as the Blue Jays came out to play and tied the series 2-2.

“Although we did lose the game,” Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said, per ESPN, “I thought I had a productive experience being able to experience this situation.”

The Dodgers and Blue Jays return to action Wednesday for Game 5 in Los Angeles before the series shifts back to Toronto for Game 6 Friday.

Luka Doncic ‘destroys’ the Mavs on his return. Gets standing ovation and shows love to Mark Cuban

Luka Doncic hits 45 points in his first game in Dallas since being traded to the Los Angeles.

It’s rare for a home crowd to cheer the visiting team, but Luka Doncic’s return to Dallas was no ordinary night.

Just days before February’s trade deadline, the Mavericks shocked the NBA by sending their 26-year-old superstar to the Lakers—a move that outraged fans and sparked backlash toward GM Nico Harrison.

On Wednesday, Doncic played his first game back in Dallas since the trade. The arena was filled with fans in both his old Mavs and new Lakers jerseys, many chanting “Fire Nico” in protest.

Despite the emotion in the air, Doncic delivered a dominant performance, scoring a game-high 45 points to lead the Lakers to a 112-97 win. It was a powerful return for one of the league’s brightest stars—and a night Dallas won’t soon forget

The Mavericks pay tribute to Luka Dončić

While the Mavericks’ decision to trade Luka Doncic remains heavily criticized, they handled his return to Dallas with undeniable grace. The organization made sure his first game back as a Laker was met with respect and appreciation.

Every seat in the arena was draped with a T-shirt reading “Hvala za vse,” which translates from Slovenian to “thank you for everything.” It was a thoughtful nod to Doncic’s heritage and impact on the franchise.

Before tip-off, during the starting lineup announcements, the Mavericks played a tribute video showcasing some of Doncic’s most iconic moments in a Dallas jersey. The emotional gesture clearly resonated—moving Doncic to tears in front of the crowd that once called him their own.

Luka Doncic ‘DESTROYS’ his old team

Luka delivered a dazzling performance against his former team, putting up 45 points on 16-of-28 shooting, including 7-of-10 from beyond the arc. He also added 8 rebounds6 assists, and 4 steals in a game that showed exactly why he’s one of the best in the league.


From the opening tip, Doncic was locked in. By halftime, Doncic had racked up 31 points on 11-of-16 shooting in just 19 minutes—marking the 10th time in his career he’s scored 30 or more in a single half.

Though his scoring slowed in the second half, he continued to lead effectively, securing both a Lakers win and an unforgettable showing for the fans in Dallas.
