Singer Michael Bublé has found himself in a bit of a bind as he watches the 2024 World Series unfold between the Los Angeles Dodgers and the Toronto Blue Jays. The reason for his conflict? His favorite player is facing off against his favorite team.

Bublé, who grew up in British Columbia, has long been a devoted fan of the Toronto Blue Jays. However, in recent years, he has developed a deep admiration for the Dodgers, particularly for their two-way star Shohei Ohtani. Ohtani, who has taken baseball by storm, began using Bublé’s iconic track “Feeling Good” as his walk-up song during the 2024 season, which only strengthened the connection between the singer and the Japanese phenom.

In an interview, Bublé shared how surreal it is to witness Ohtani, a player he now considers a favorite, using his music in such a prominent way. “I can’t believe it,” Bublé said, still in awe of the fact that his song is playing a small role in baseball history. “It’s unbelievable. To see Shohei Ohtani, someone I admire so much, walking up to Feeling Good — it’s surreal.”

Despite his admiration for Ohtani and the Dodgers, Bublé’s loyalty still lies with his Canadian roots. “At the end of the day, my heart is in Canada,” Bublé admitted. “I’m cheering for my Blue Jays, but I also want a great series.”

For Bublé, this World Series is bittersweet. As a fan of the Blue Jays, his support is unwavering, but his respect for Ohtani’s incredible talent and the Dodgers’ powerhouse team has made this a complicated matchup. “It’s a win-win in a way,” Bublé said, referring to the talent on both sides of the field.

As the series progresses, Bublé’s fans—whether they’re in Canada, the U.S., or anywhere else—are likely feeling the same mix of pride, excitement, and conflict. Ultimately, the singer is hoping for an exciting and competitive World Series, no matter who comes out on top.
