In an upcoming interview on “The Breakfast Club,” set to air on Monday (Feb. 19), Usher shared insights about Justin Bieber and Chris Brown.
When Charlamagne Tha God asked about Bieber’s absence from the Super Bowl LVIII halftime show, Usher clarified, “We did have a brief conversation, and we’re going to do something else in the future, but no love lost or anything like that. I think that it’s a lot of pressure for the Super Bowl, obviously, for me to put together a show, so I reached out to everybody.”
He went on to mention, “Justin wasn’t the only person I actually spoke to about doing the Super Bowl, but the moment was maybe for later. He’s going to play the Super Bowl [in the future].”
Fans had speculated that the musician might join Usher for the “Somebody To Love (Remix),” but the anticipated moment never materialized. Nonetheless, Bieber attended the game on Sunday (Feb. 11) night.
Afterward, Bieber shared a supportive message on Instagram, expressing admiration for Usher’s talents. He wrote, “Love you, my brother. No one can sing and dance the way you do. Love you from the depths of my heart. [You] brought the ‘A’ to the world. Only you, baby.”
Brown also extended congratulations to Usher after his Super Bowl performance, reigniting rumors of a past altercation between the two at Brown’s surprise birthday bash in 2023. Allegedly, the incident occurred when the “Go Crazy” artist reportedly confronted Teyana Taylor.
In an excerpt from “The Breakfast Club” interview, Usher clarified their relationship status, stating, “It’s all good, man. It’s always going to be something that you’re going to hear. Ain’t no issues between me and that man. We good.”
On Friday (Feb. 9), Usher unveiled his ninth studio album, COMING HOME, featuring collaborations with Latto, 21 Savage, Summer Walker, Pheelz, H.E.R., and Jung Kook. The R&B legend is set to embark on a headlining tour later this year in support of the LP.
