Morgan, Dunn react as USWNT roster spots revealed by Taylor Swift and Lil Wayne

The USWNT brought out some big names to reveal its 2023 World Cup roster

U.S. Soccer brought out some of the biggest names in sports, entertainment and politics to announce the 2023 U.S. women’s national team World Cup roster.

The video posted on social media began with none other than U.S. President Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden, and continued with each of the 23 players being introduced by a different celebrity.

Alex Morgan was given the honor of being introduced by her friend Taylor Swift, and the striker told reporters afterwards that she felt the pairing was ideal.

“I was really surprised to see Taylor announce me but all the other amazing celebrities, influencers and people so influential in the soccer world announcing the roster was pretty cool,” Morgan said. “I give U.S. Soccer props for that. I think they nailed it with Taylor announcing me. I was very happy about that. She had some really nice things to say and I feel like we’ve supported each other a lot, so it was really great to see that.”

Lil Wayne was charged with introducing Crystal Dunn, who said that it was “incredible” seeing the rap star reveal her spot on the roster.

“I will say getting that announcement from Lil Wayne was incredible,” Dunn said. “I mean, everybody was hitting my line like, ‘Do you know him? Do you know him?’ I’m like no, but listen, the man said my name already so I feel like we kind of know each other now.”

Swift and Lil Wayne were far from the only big names in the video, which also included the likes of Megan Thee Stallion (who seems to have taken up a newfound interest in soccer), Shaquille O’Neal, Issa Rae, Blake Lively, Mia Hamm, Jalen Hurts and many more.
