Minutes before the Selección Mexicana faced England, a burst of posts from artists, actors and influencers turned social media into a pregame rally for the Tricolor. The names attached to that wave included Sebastián Rulli, while Salma Hayek, Maribel Guardia, Peso Pluma, Alejandro Fernández and Los Ángeles Azules also sent public backing for the team.
The timing mattered because the messages landed just before the silbatazo inicial, when the match had not yet begun and the online conversation was still being shaped. For readers looking up Sebastian Rulli now, that is the reason the name is circulating: he was among the celebrities linked to the support campaign around Mexico vs England, even as the available details focus more clearly on what others posted than on his own specific message.
Hayek paired her support with a video of celebrations in the Ángel and wrote, “¡Seguimos adelante México! Gracias a la Selección Mexicana por darlo todo y honrar el espíritu de nuestro pueblo, que nunca se rinde”. Guardia took a different route, sharing an Instagram video made with Artificial Intelligence in which she appears as a player for the Selección Mexicana and writing, “Estamos listos para hacer historia hoy. ¡Vamos México!”
Peso Pluma also joined in by wearing the Mexican team jersey and showing 50 mil dólares he said he decided to bet on the Selección. Los Ángeles Azules, alongside Belinda and the song “A Ella,” wrote, “¡A que sí! Hoy es el partido, jugamos todos, alentamos todos”, while Alejandro Fernández sent a message to the players: “Vamos, muchachos. Hasta el límite, con garra, honor y pasión”.
That is what gives the story its edge: the celebrity support is real and varied, but the public record attached to Sebastián Rulli is thinner than the headline suggests. His name sits inside a broad wave of backing for Mexico, yet the specific post or line linked to him is not spelled out in the available details, leaving the attention on the collective push rather than on a single star turn.
What comes next is the match itself, and with it the chance to see whether the online build-up around Mexico vs England becomes more than a social media moment. For now, the clearest takeaway is that the pregame spotlight belonged not just to the team, but to a cluster of well-known names that helped amplify the mood around the Selección Mexicana before kickoff.
