Summary
Chloe Auli'i Cravalho will perform the "Star-Spangled Banner" when Buffalo opens the new Highmark Stadium against Detroit on Thursday night.
The 2016 "Moana" breakout star was chosen for a pregame spotlight in a debut event built around the Bills' new home and quarterback Josh Allen's season opener.
OneRepublic is scheduled for halftime, while Barenaked Ladies will sing the Canadian anthem in what the report says is an NFL first.
Cravalho, from Kohala, Hawai'i, has expanded from voicing Moana at age 16 into film and TV roles including "Mean Girls," "Rise" and "The Power."

With fans funding $263 million, will the new stadium's reduced 60,000-seat capacity end up pricing out Buffalo's most loyal working-class supporters?
