Usher’s Performance With Alicia Keys Turns Into an Unsightly Controversy
Usher’s performance at the 2024 Super Bowl halftime show was a big hit, as he was accompanied by Alicia Keys, Ludacris, and Lil Jon. Jokingly, a disclaimer was featured that warned that his performance would feature “singing, dancing, sweating, gyrating, and possible relationship issues.”
The disclaimer became true while he was performing with Keys, where he was being way too touchy. Midway during the performance, Usher hugged the Girl on Fire singer, and fans were not too delighted about his act, as she is married to Swizz Beatz.
This act of Usher was immensely criticized by the fans as every social media was flooded with Usher hugging Alicia Keys as if they were in a relationship.
