The stars were out in Los Angeles when Lionel Messi and Inter Miami came to the city on Wednesday evening – with Steph Curry and Kendall Jenner among the celebrities present for their cup match against Lafc.
The Messi team suffered in the night at BMO Stadium, with the second half of Nathan Ordaz who deserved a narrow 1-0 win for an A-list audience.
Miami co-owner David Beckham, who has long owned ownership, was in the house when his club came loose in the first stage of their Concacaf Champions Cup quarterfinals.
Like Beckham – who was 50 during the weekend at the weekend at a stars -littered birthday party in Miami – there were many other controversial names that looked into the crowd.
NBA icon Curry looked in fine spirits while taking the action of a private suite, while model and reality star Jenner wore a brown leather jacket and light blue jeans while he was in the stands.
Legendary singer and songwriter Lionel Richie was even in the game, just like La Rams Quarterback Matthew Stafford and his wife Kelly.
The loss was the first of 2025 for Miami, who had won seven consecutive games in all competitions while he started 8-0-1 under the new coach Javier Mascherano.
Messi had produced a goal or an assist in each of his first Six Champions Cup performances since he came to Inter two years ago, including three goals in the early rounds of this year's tournament.
Despite playing the entire game in Los Angeles, the football legend – who only returned from injury last week – was able to stand on the score sheet in a narrow defeat.
The cup match on Wednesday came only a few days after Beckham's 50th birthday in Miami, where Messi and teammates Luis Suarez, Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba were present.
Beckham stood for a photo with all four players before wife Victoria joined him when posing for a separate with Messi, Suarez and their wives.
David laughed aloud when they posed with Messi, his wife Antonela Roccuzzo, Suarez and his wife Sofia Balbi.
The former English football player, who only turns 50 on May 2, posted several photos of the Bash in the Cipriani Downtown Miami in Florida on Sunday.
Among them was a photo with Tom Brady, the seven-fold super bowl champion and NFL legend and basketball Great Shaquille O'Neal.
Brady, 47, and Shaq, 53, who are on 6FT4 and 7FT1 respectively, both towered over 5ft11 Beckham while they were together for the photo.
However, he took the considerable height difference in good mood and posted 'I am so small' next to the photo on his Instagram story.
All three former athletes looked dressed for the occasion in dark suits with Brady who chose a t-shirt underneath is a jacket.
Hollywood star Justin Theroux and Fisher Stevens were also present, as well as Grammy winner Marc Anthony.
