If we didn’t already love Darius Rucker and the Philadelphia Eagles even more than we thought, this happened last night and we’re in awe. Country music star Darius Rucker brought Philadelphia Eagles star and offensive lineman Jordan Mailata on stage to perform at Barefoot Country Music Festival last night. Needless to say the crowd went insane and they even had the Eagles cheerleaders performing on stage as well!
The Barefoot Country Music Festival is taking over the Jersey Shore and the whole Philadelphia area this weekend with Jon Pardi headlining Thursday night, Blake Shelton headlining Friday night, Darius Rucker and Hardy headlining Saturday night and Sunday we get to see Lainey Wilson and Parker McCollum! Not to mention 925XTU is on the beach broadcasting live all weekend so if you see us, definitely say hello!
Let’s get back to the performance of the weekend. Jordan Mailata is no stranger to singing. We first saw his amazing first during his rookie season where he performed during training camp. Most professional athletes are not good singers, but Jordan is an exception. He blew everyone away that it went viral and turns out he actually is an amazing offensive lineman too. He then went to perform on The Masked Singer and then was featured on Jason Kelce’s and the Philadelphia Eagles Christmas Album where he also stole the show. Not sure how it come about last night, but kudos to Darius Rucker who knew having Jordan and the Eagles Cheerleaders on stage would make the crowd lose their mind.
Now we just need to get Darius Rucker back to Philly for the Eagles Home Opener where he can sing the National Anthem and the Eagles fight song. Check out some of our favorite Jordan singing moments and see him performing “Alight” with Darius Rucker last night at The Barefoot Country Music Festival. Hopefully we’ll get to see more Darius and Jordan in Philly soon.
