Lionel Messi, the renowned football star, recently made waves at the ceremony for the launch of the luxurious cruise ship, “Icon of the Seas,” by Royal Caribbean. While attending the event in Miami, Messi caught everyone’s attention with his fashion choice – a pair of eye-catching sneakers. The sneakers Messi wore were none other than the limited edition Forum Low Simpsons from adidas, featuring vibrant colors and designs inspired by the iconic American animated series.

The Argentine star, who is gearing up for his second season with Inter Miami, donned the Inter Miami attire along with the distinctive and colorful Simpsons-themed sneakers. Social media quickly took notice of his footwear choice, as the sneakers showcased shades of brown, pink, lime green, and violet, reminiscent of the living room of the beloved Simpsons family.

Messi’s presence at the event held additional significance as he was selected as the ambassador for the Icon of the Seas. In this role, Messi had the honor of activating the mechanism to officially baptize the ship. After giving a speech, including a few words in English, Messi placed a ball on a stand. With his trademark magic touch, a bottle slid along a cable and struck the ship’s hull, symbolizing its christening.

Expressing his gratitude for the privilege, Messi stated, “First of all, I would like to thank the entire Royal Caribbean group for giving me this honor. It is a great privilege for me. I am aware of the significance of this ship for the city of Miami and the world. Without further ado, I hereby nаme this ship Icon of the Seas. God bless it and everyone who sails on it.”

The event not only marked the grand inauguration of the cruise ship but also solidified the new partnership between Inter Miami and Royal Caribbean. The cruise line company became the main sponsor and Official Vacation Partner of the club, with the team’s jersey proudly displaying the company’s iconic logo on the front. Messi’s teammates also joined him on stage to unveil the new jersey, further highlighting the significance of the occasion.

Messi’s presence and his distinctive Simpsons-themed sneakers added an extra touch of excitement and style to the event, making it an unforgettable moment for all involved.
