BIG SHAQ was the talk of Twitter after his surprising appearance at the Fifa Best awards in London on Monday.
The British singer opened the glitzy award bash at the Royal Festival Hall, and social media users weren't sure how to react - and Zinedine Zidane looked less than impressed.
Big Shaq, real name Michael Dapaah, shot to fame with his 2017 hit 'Man's Not Hot' which peaked at No3 in the UK charts.
And he was drafted in by Fifa to open the awards show - giving Mo Salah and Luka Modric a high five.
One Twitter post read: "I like Big Shaq as much as the next guy, but the FIFA Football awards... nah."
Another Twitter user wrote: "Big Shaq performing at FIFA The Best right now is insane."
One social media user said: "Am I dreaming things or is Big Shaq performing at the Best FIFA Football awards?"
And another user wrote: "An arena full of the the best players to grace the game and they have big shaq opening act... Jesus Christ who organised that."
While the likes of Gareth Southgate and Kylian Mbappe appeared to enjoy the performance, former Real Madrid manager Zidane looked stony-faced.
Actor Idris Elba hosted the awards show where Modric beat Salah and Cristiano Ronaldo to the main prize of the evening.
Eden Hazard, N'Golo Kante and Kylian Mbappe were part of a star-studded cast of footballers in attendance.
