The Jake Paul vs Anthony Joshua bout theatrics are in full motion, and with the undercard officially done and dusted, it’s time to shift our focus to the pre-fight rituals. That starts with the national anthem. So, which singers are representing the boxers inside the ring?

Representing the YouTuber influencer and the American arena is Ally Brooke, singing the US anthem. Well-known American singer and former band member of the hugely successful girl group Fifth Harmony, Brooke has the vocals and the charisma to nail the patriotic gesture as Paul steps in for the big fight. On AJ’s side is Skye Bishop, singing the UK national anthem.

Ally Brooke and Fifth Harmony: Rise to the top

Born on July 7, 1993, Allyson Brooke Hernandez kick-started her musical career on the X Factor US show, where she came across other band members for the girl group. She has released popular solo hits like “Low-Key” and also appeared on the American TV series Dancing with the Stars.

The singer of Mexican descent first auditioned for the X Factor Show in Austin, Texas, close to her hometown, singing ‘On My Knees’ by Jaci Velasquez. She advanced to the bootcamp round, where she sang ‘Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door’ only to get eliminated. However, later she was brought back alongside other pop singers on the show:  Dinah Jane, Normani, Lauren Jauregui, and Camila Cabello to form Fifth Harmony.
