What are your thoughts on Usher’s performance at the 2024 Super Bowl? Did you like it?

I didn't watch it.

Since the Super Bowl is a good game and I like to watch the action AND the commercials are fun to watch, I am glued to the TV until half-time.

Once half-time arrives, I stop watching for 15 minutes because 1) I probably have to pee, 2) I have a critical chore or two to do, and, most importantly, 3) I almost certainly do not give a rat's ass about who is performing. Every performance - before the game and during halftime - is tedious. I start muttering Bart Simpson when he was watching the halftime show for the 1992 Super Bowl between Washington and Buffalo.

(Bart's line about "snipers" is something of an homage to the 1976 movie "Two-Minute Warning".)

I liked it. I appreciated that he was singing live even with all the dancing considering a lot of half time shows are lip synced.

i think he sounded good, his dancing was great, and he performed all his classics. I love the roller skating part too

[DizzyDesii]

I love Usher but was surprised how shakey he sounded. I think it was just too hot on the field cause he normally sounds good while dancing or skating. Alicia ALWAYYYYYS sounds bad live

[Oliverlogan263]

Righttt It was probably that and sweating bullets like a roasted pig lol but it was a great performance, it was short and a few people he didn’t bring on like Justin Bieber. Justin’s ass was sitting in the crowd with his wife watching and people hoped and expected him to be on with usher, also it was short for the performance.

Now Alicia did good but I wouldn’t say her voice sound bad live always, but her first note I caught on was shaky that I seen people on tik tok laughed about it 😂 the disrespect was crazy and when they got to My Boo my absolute one of my favorites by usher with Alicia, her voice wasn’t all that there for that song maybe cause she’s getting older but she did her th8gn up there and looked damn amazing with her fit she on last night

[Oliverlogan263]

And usher is 45 years old too

[DizzyDesii]

Its too much twitter talk about usher and pdiddy raping justin so of course he wouldn't join. And no all superbowl performances are 15 mins. I love My Boo but alicia always sound bad singing live. she's no John Legend

[DizzyDesii]

Alicia rocked that outfit. Usher made her forget she was married lmao. I wanted to possess her body and bend over and shake it on him 🤣

[Oliverlogan263]

I heard bout them rumors about Usher and Diddy, that's wild. Can't say I'm surprised they didn't bring Justin out then if that's floating around. Justin was there with his wife but I found out he’s dealing with some health issues which is why he didn’t come out to perform, I was bankin him to come out and perform Somebody to Love with usher cause that was my shit when I was younger

I know, it went fast tho. Only 15 minutes, it was so short how they were speeding the songs up too like damn could’ve gave usher more time than he did. Everything drags on the TV these days it seems. But they gave Beyoncé more time when she did her halftime show one time

Haha yeah Alicia is definitely no John Legend when it comes to live singing. Dude is so smooth. Man Alicia killed and slayed her fit, she did look amazing up there, I dont blame Usher for getting her all flustered. I was feeling some type of way watching her too! Wish I could've got on that stage and showed her a good time all up in dat Super Bowl if I was usher lol, am I right? She's got that magic especially with that red velvet outfit she had on jesusss 😍😍😍😍 that’s my baby tho. Usher's a lucky dude for sure.

Oh course, it’s usher I seen Alicia how she was smiling and shit with usher all hugged up 😂😂😂

[petitedollbabee]

I didn’t even know it was Usher until afterwards. I watched about 5 minutes of his performance before I walked away from my tv, lol. Was not a fan.

[smahala1991]

It took me back to middle and high school, although I was never a rap fan, I always heard these songs at high school dances

[Joshydavid25]

I didn't watch the Superbowl and so I didn't see the full performance, but from what I heard it was hit or miss. Of course girls who love Usher loved the performance..

[Oliverlogan263]

You should check it out man. Usher did his thing that night especially had Alicia Keys come out and my god she looked so sexy in her red outfit. Then people clowned about her voice cracked when she begin to start singing. Look: www.tiktok.com/.../7334751739406454047

[Oliverlogan263]

😂😂😂😂😂

[Joshydavid25]

😂😂😂😂.. They definitely clowned her.. Oh, and I remember the thing about Usher being all up on Alicia.. 😂😂.. But she was looking good though..

[AviatorTom]

It was okay but I prefer more singing the great songs and less over-the-top dancing and gyrating. And too many costume changes for a 15 minute performance.

I'm sure some people loved it. In my book, I'd rate it 5/10.

[AngryCarl]

I thought it was okay, less frenzied and try hard than it's been in recent years. No politics, no wardrobe malfunctions, no simulated sex. Just nice singing and nice costumes. I'm not a fan of Usher but whatever.

[bobalife]

I love Usher, so much throw back, I found myself dancing and singing to his performances 🎶

[Sirenboobzilla]

I liked it. My mom and I were dancing to it. He's still fine!

[DreamLife7]

I enjoyed him he's actually talented. No mumble music, no vulgar language, just genuine music people of all ages can listen to. Go Kansas, I actually liked seeing Taylor, ice spice and Blake lively.

[lightbulb27]

Iscannes it.. i like Usher some of the lyrics… but couldnt hear it well. Alicia ok… nice costums.


To be honest my high school drill team is better.

[Subflics]

Not my kind of music. My date enjoyed it though so I was happy because of her

[Drew-1990]

It's the one part of the game I didn't pay any attention to. Once half time show started I went straight to my phone

[Jersey2]

I thought so e of the dancing and acrobatics in the beginning were amazing. Especially where they held a partner up like a statue. The rest was meh.

[itsclearlynicholas]

I didn't see his part. I for one when they announced him I was like "why pick someone 10 years too late" lol 😆

[itsclearlynicholas]

Especially if, of all grand stages, surely the Superbowl could afford better, the NFL could afford someone younger, relevant, aka even someone under the age of 30 yet above the age of 20, artist singer whether that's a SZA or whether that's a Ava Max or whether that's a whoever. Just a pop star who's still relevant and refreshing and fresh, you know. Why pick someone who's like, not as relevant or not as new in the music scene 🎵🎶

[Oliverlogan263]

I guess usher is one of those stars from that older generation from the 90s who actually has experience, been in the music business for 30 years now, has timeless hits, and can put on a show as I can’t think of anyone today to put a show like that in the modern scene.

I can't argue that he doesn't know how to put on a really polished, tight performance after being in the game this long. That Super Bowl stage has to be insane pressure and he handled it for sure. And it is hard to think of many artists today who could navigate something that huge. A lot of the younger artists now might freeze up or not deliver the same level of showmanship.

[Anonymous]

Better than most. It is always nice when they go with someone who is musically talented and not someone who is just a popstar.

[Squatting_Slav]

I had all the ads and performances muted. I just wanted to watch the football! As a Brit I'm not used to all the performances and ads lol

[Oliverlogan263]

The football towards the end was crazy with the 49ers and chiefs man

[Squatting_Slav]

Yeah what a game!

[sheikalana]

Love it. Very nostalgic for me.

[Oliverlogan263]

Were you a fan of usher dating back from the 90s and early 2000s? And what you most enjoy from his performance at the Super Bowl halftime?

[sheikalana]

Best part was listening to some of classics I've forgotten. Yes, I grew up listening to Usher.

[Iron_Man]

That was the most boring horrible halftime show I’ve ever seen there was only one decent song I’m not into love Romance, songs, from guys

[Nikki1989]

I hate the Superbowl, but I hate mainstream tin foil music like Usher even more.

[TheSpider]

Didn't watch it. I was reading the Poe story. I love that story so much.

[whistlingwh0res]

He wants to join the American orgy but no white people invite him so he is bitching

[FunkyMonkee]

Never saw it, didn't care.
