I love how these grown women hosts were gushing over Usher!!!! So cute!!!!!
Lol ikr. He is the Man. ❤
Just loved it too ❤❤
And that's the way it should be IMO. The younger crowd today don't have that. Every Rapper looks the same.
Like FrFr😂😂😂
Lol. But y'all do know Usher is a grown man right?😂😂 He is 45❤
I am a 58 year old lady, Usher has been KILLING it since he was a teen! His voice is like wine, it gets better with time! When he does a show, you get your money's worth. He has a gift from God, and he loves his profession.❤
Perfect age for Super Bowl 58!
Extremely gifted❤
Usher is extremely is a very gifted singer I hope you don't get swallowed up and all that other stuff please keep it clean.
He has notes to me that sound like Michael Jackson and he can dance well too❤
Orange 🍊 And Sangria 🍇
Wait... How old is Usher????
She sat down so quick. She was ready for Usher to start singing.
I love that he took his glasses off and didn't do a whole interview hiding. That speaks volumes, and his confidence just flows over into his appeal even more.
I was so glad too I thought oh No Usher going down this route too. He took them off and the interview flowed nicely. I so disrespectful when these celebs wear sunshades being interview Ed it does not allow you to feel the person being interview it acts as a barrier its not cool it just silly. So glad Usher took them off.
@sassyx2048 I agree with you. I dislike it too when celebs sit there and hide their eyes. To me, it's unprofessional as well as what are you hiding?
@@simplynikkinicole 💯 agree. There should be a rule that stipulates no Sunshades during interviews. It's mostly black Male celebs that do this not sure why though it's not cool at all.
@sassyx2048 What you said....I agree whole heartdly. Now, if the interview is outside, I'll give you the shades, but inside...yes, some studio lights tend to be a bit bright, but not sunglasses bright.
Absolutely!!
Usher is such a class act!!! It bothers me that he’s just now getting his deserved flowers!! Grammy award winning diamond album having artist!! I mean come on!!
I mean, I think having a residency in Vegas pretty much says you've made it.
EXACTLY
@kristopherdavis2715, Huh...? Please, help me out here, what do you mean it bothers you that Usher's "just now" today getting his flowers? Seriously, my friend I don't get it. I mean Usher was given by his fans, peers, critics & the music industry around the world a long time ago, "8 Grammy's, 18 Billboard Music Awards, 9 Soul Train Music Awards, 8 AMA's, a star imbedded on the Hollywood Walk of Fame," & I haven't even scratched the surface yet. FFS, almost 20 years ago the "Godfather of Soul, James Brown," performed a duet with Usher @The Grammy Awards. On top of that, James Brown himself honored Usher by dubbing him the "Godson of Soul." Usher has often been called an "icon" along with being referred to AKA "King of R&B" & "Mr. Entertainment" for years due to the impact & influence he's had & contributed to the world of music. Usher was also honored by "The BET Honors" 10 years ago & the award was presented by the man who Usher arguably stole his crown, "Bobby Brown." Which if you know anything about Bobby's ego back in the day? Bobby still gave Usher the respect he deserved, telling Usher he was the man & a game changer who paved the way for other R&B artists to come. Ne-Yo been quoted in saying that if it wasn't for Usher there wouldn't be a Ne-Yo, Chris Brown or Trey Songz, etc... Sorry for the rant but I thought I'd lay it down for you a little bit as a reminder of just a few things & ways Usher continues to be given his props & acknowledged for years, ya dig? Just keeping it a buck here! ++Peace, Funk & Rock n' Roll 4 Your Soul My Friend++ 🤘😎🤘
It seems Usher has always been very popular! I can remember him from long ago. He is such a class act for many reasons. I’m glad we got to see this video.
If he brings out anyone, it should be Ludacris and Lil’ John. Bring ATLANTA to the Super Bowl! Usher MORE THAN DESERVES THIS. He is a truly talented entertainer. Just amazing and still adorable in his 40’s.
I agree with you and add Chris Brown too.
Ludaaaaaaa! That would be awesome!
Pleeeeeeease do not bring Keke Palmer on that stage lol
That’s my vote
Chris Brown ❤
I love the space Usher is in. It’s like he’s able to just have fun and enjoy himself and all of his hard work.
A Living Legend. Dude been relevant, working,and making hits since 1994! People that's almost 30 years. He is the goat 🐐 🙌
I saw him this past Friday! Such an amazing performer. He is deserving for every opportunity that comes his way ❤
So happy for you! ❤My husband and I were just there this past weekend but did not get to see him! We had a great time, even met a group of really cool women from my hometown (Detroit) who were on a girls trip to see him! They had the cutest yellow shirts saying they were there to see Usher! We took pics together.
I saw him this past Saturday and I’m still gushing. Best male performer of our generation
I’m going next week and I am so excited!!!
@@hw5932 have fun! He puts on a show!
Seeing the last show Dec 2!
I absolutely love him. He is so kind, and honestly, the fact that he has not done a Superbowl half time show is insane. I will be listening in.
Usher is going to give the viewers a great Super Bowl Performance. He got the full package which is the vocals, dance moves, music and know how to have great stage presence. Congratulations Usher who definitely deserve this opportunity. ❤❤❤
Usher has always been one of my favorite male artists. And has always been an amazing performer.
I love the man he has grown into. So poised, professional and charismatic. Happy for him!
How is usher 45. But looks 25. Soooo fineeeee❤
Hear he's mixed with ❤ Alabama 🖤 that's why the 20's look. 🪨
Hoda hugged him & grabbed the back of his head😳🤣🤣🤣 She's definitely smitten!😍😍😍😃
The way these ladies DROOLED over Usher is hilarious
Especially Hoda Kotb she was like a School girl 😅
He’s a GENTLEMAN! It’s so refreshing to see! Luv to usher. ❤🙌🏾🙌🏾
So nobody going to talk about how he killing that suit. His walk that suit the whole entire look ... oh my God❤😊
I really can’t wait to see and watch Mr. Usher at the Halftime Show, so I can watch the Super Bowl LVIII at home on TV next year on February 11, 2024!
Thanks for sharing the date 😊.
You’re welcome 😉.
Usher doesn't need anybody else. 👏 👏 👏
I'm excited about this Superbowl.
Already planning my menu for this one.
He looks so good! 😍
Usher is a legend in his own right I'm so honored to still be his fan at 45 years old. This is so amazing
Legend , Usher Show in Vegas was AWWWESOME!!!
Saw him at his Vegas residency for 55th birthday in July and he doesn’t disappoint . I was there the night of the infamous KeKe Palmer serenade. 😊 I also saw him at The New Orleans Jazz fest with the Roots.
Epitome of just a cool dude. Just smooth. Love him!❤
Usher is such a gentlemen hes so comfortable around ladies regardless of their ages thats due to respect he has for his mother. Such a lovely gesture given them roses how sweet they will cherish that for ever more They will defo go to Vegas and see the show. It was really lovely to see them act like high school kids they were gushing. Only Usher has that affect.
It's interesting to see this other side of Usher. He's an amazing performer but also a caring and intentional father who loves his children.
I was diagnosed at the age of six as well. Thirty years and I’m still going strong. I have my bad days every now and then, you just gotta keep pushin forward
The way Hoda gripped the back of his head!! ✌🏾🤣
These two lovely ladies are so star struck that they can't interview 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I love to see it!
Usher is just too fine!! So well spoken i just love him!!
Usher can do the superbowl by himself
Factz I hope he performs "U don't have to Call"
Usher is the moment
The way Hoda gripped him when he came out though.....
I saw that!!!!
Right!! We're not talking about that moment enough, okayyyy! lol 😁😍
That was for all of us! Lol
Usher is mesmerizing❤❤❤
🫠❤ Yes he is
Usher been my Big brother since "My Way" and it's crazy how that Album is already over 25 years old!!!
"8701" my favorite Usher Album and still Highly Underrated and it's 22 years for that.
And Next Year makes 20 years for "Confessions" can't wait.
In Conclusion, Usher is the R&B Prince 👑🐐🎤 MJ 👑 Little Brother, like MJ 23🐐 is to Kobe Bryant Jr. 🐐🙏🕊️
Usher deserves his flowers and The Superbowl Halftime show about time for that btw ☺️👏
That Confessions Album was nothing but the truth! I had it on repeat over and over and over! I still love this album, and it is still relevant and a classic!❤
@AngelaJackson
I respect your opinion my sister but for me personally "8701" my favorite Usher Album
Mariah And Usher is going to be epic 🎤
His Vegas residency show was amazing!!!! I feel fortunate to have experienced it!! He’s so talented. I’ve been an Usher fan since I was in middle school!
Usher is definitely one of the 🐐s of music period! Dude been around for along time
A legend...he has always had my heart with his music and performances ❤️ ❤❤❤
This was me in Vegas leaning in on the edge of my seat 💺 . One of the BEST concerts 🔥🔥
Hoda quivering hugging him cracks me up 😂
I'm going to be in Vegas during the superbowl but not at the game. I cannot wait to be in the presence of all those fancy people but to pass by Usher would be wiiild. (Also he's from ATL my fam is from ATL, I'm from KC area and if the chiefs go all the way again that would also be wild)
He’s so handsome ❤️
Super Bowl LVIII was going to be great on February 11, 2024 as I can see Usher on T.V.!
Listen, Usher don't need a guest. I just saw him a few weeks ago in Vegas. AH-MAZING!!!!!!!!!!
Well mannered, good-looking, and great person. What else can one ask for?
They were so smitten by him!! It was the cutest thing ❤. They were so engulfed in him, that they let him dodge that question about his partner/girlfriend. Usher be too smooth with it. Haha
King of RnB 👑
He's a Prince 👑🐐🎤
Nah he’s a King ❤
The King Of R&B
Legend 👑❤
Honestly as a fan of Usher's I can definitely say he's been doing such a tremendous job since the beginning of his career. And truly I love his songs and his performances. And I can't hardly wait when he performs at the Super bowl Halftime show cause it's gonna be amazing❤
Just saw Usher last weekend. Amazing performance. Legend!
I can’t wait for the Super Bowl! ❤. I will take the pledge! 😊
Usher is so talented,and he has not aged at all after all these years.
Hooda couldn’t wait to grab the back of that head. 😂😂
You caught that too huh?😂
Ready for Usher at the SUPERBOWL. ❤
USHER SING "HERE I STAND"..!!!💖💜💖💜💖💜💖💜💖💜💖💜💖💜
He said a Mariah as a guest for the halftime show! Please make it happen! 🙏🦋
I said so mature and he speaks well. His mother raised him well I like his style and his charisma. God bless you Asher and your family.🙏🏽😘😍🥰
I’ve been to soooo many of his concerts in Atlanta and my best friend met him and got his autograph for me. It got damaged and I am still hurt behind it 😢. Usher will always be my boo and one day I’m going to hug him while we sing Slow Jams together ❤
Living Legend King Usher 👑
He such a sweet guy(The roses❤)
I just love him..(So humble)..The Super Bowl is gonna be SO GOOD! The anticipation is so exciting
My daughter became diagnosed at 15 it was one of the hardest thing I have ever had to deal with
Usher is simply fabulous!! He’s amazing! He has a WONDERFUL CAREER…And he’s a wonderful entertainer👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Congratulations Usher Raymond…Enjoy❤️❤️❤️❤️
To see these two women Fanmaning on Usher is just priceless it really is they are positively Gushing over him and why not. Go see the show ladies i went from London you will not be disappointed if it gets extended im going again.
I like that he spoke openly about his child's health challenges to raise awareness..
I loved this interview the ladies were more like teens 😂wow such an informative show....
Usher!!!!❤🎉😊
Its Hoda twirling the Rose for me!! 🥰 What a great interview with a legend who deserves his own Roses 🌹 🌹 🌹 🌹 🌹 🌹 🌹 🌹🥰
She's a squirrel.
🥹☺️
Love Usher. Love Jenna's dress.
Usher has an amazing show in Vegas!
Mann this dude do not age!!!he look the same he did around 8701 time fram..forever my dude man
Those 2 are fan girling 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I don’t really have time to watch this interview. And I made the time because it’s Usher. He is so intelligent and very thoughtful about everything. Grateful I could hear him today with Hoda and Jenna.
The way Usher is getting so much love these days is wonderful to see. Also would like to know where he and Lenny Kravitz found the Fountain of Youth so I can head there...
Lenny is 15 years older than Usher. Don’t get me wrong still looks younger than his age. But he’s 45… that’s not really that old. Now Lenny at 59 looking like he’s in his late 20’s/early 30’s… is on that Vampire Ish.
I hope he's still in Vegas 2024. Definitely want to see him.
Almost as if he was annoyed no one mentioned Mariah haha it shows the great respect he has for her. She’s the greatest imo
USHER is still the man.
UNSTOPPABLE.
He still got it going on..
He never seem to sop amazing me with his vocal and performance.
He most definitely will go down in history has one of the greatest stars that perform on this earth.
AS A BAD BOY.. A LEGENDARY.
.
I woke up..wasn't haven't too good of a morning this morning. Didn't sleep well last night. Seeing Usher walk out on this video clip; IMMEDIATELY made me smile 🙂
He still looks like in late twenties age beautifully
❤ Usher baby! Lil John is my choice for special guess
Thank You Ushers for giving us the very important information regarding Diabetes we all should be tested I wish your family the best
Congratulations The super Bowl you deserve this
Good Good ❤❤❤💙💙💙
my earliest memories in life start at 3 years old + usher is part of that lol. I used to sing his songs + do his dance moves at 3 (as a 90s baby) + I’ve loved him since 🤎.
Thank you Usher for making all of A'ja Wilson's wildest fantasies comes true 🤣
he is so smooth. the kind that makes you smile.
I can’t think of anyone who could be with Usher on stage. It’s really hard. That person would match his incredible talent, vibe and energy.
Nelly
Angelic voice, incredible singer Usher!!!!!
His smile is everything.. ...I just 💜 it 🥰....
