À propos de cet audio
Usher has kept himself in the spotlight over the past several days with a series of headline-grabbing moments blending music, fashion, business partnerships, and his signature dose of playful controversy. During New York Fashion Week just two days ago, Usher made waves when he revealed to TMZ at CBS Studios that his dream act for the Super Bowl LX halftime show is none other than Metallica. He joked that the “Masters of Puppets better keep their guitars tuned up,” a nod that lit up social media and sent fans and insiders alike into a frenzy. The game itself is still months away, scheduled for February 8, 2026, at Levi’s Stadium in California, but Usher’s public lobbying for a heavy metal halftime is already one of the most unexpected and talked-about celebrity endorsements of a halftime act this year, as reported by the Times of India and widely discussed by both sports and entertainment press.
Not to be outdone, Usher’s high-profile streak continued at the 18th annual Harlem Fashion Row Fashion Show & Style Awards in New York. He was honored with the prestigious Virgil Abloh Award and gave an emotional speech crediting his family’s guidance, God’s grace, and a dash of ambition rooted in innovation—a spirit inspired by the late designer’s 3 percent rule. His comment about his current “relevance” possibly being due to cherry-feeding at his Las Vegas residency drew laughs, but he switched to a more reflective tone, urging the crowd to keep chasing the dreams of their younger selves. Harlem Fashion Row’s star-studded guest list amplified Usher’s resurgence as both an entertainer and a style leader, with ABC Audio and industry outlets buzzing about his impact.
On the talk show circuit, Usher turned up the charm with an appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, where he revealed a playful off-stage rivalry with LA Dodgers superstar Mookie Betts. Mookie jokingly cautioned him, “No serenade, leave the cherries at home,” referencing Usher’s infamous concert tradition of feeding cherries to audience members—a move that has become iconic, sometimes controversial, but always headline-making since his Vegas residency. Social reactions to this cherry-bit, especially when performed on high-profile fans like Sabrina Carpenter at the Met Gala, continue to keep Usher trending across Instagram and celebrity news feeds.
On the business front, Usher took to CBS Mornings to announce a major partnership as the face of Ralph Lauren’s new fragrance, Ralph’s Club New York, giving his already prolific year an entrepreneurial edge. This professional momentum was further recognized when Usher landed on the EBONY 2025 Power 100 list, celebrated as one of the most influential figures in music and beyond.
While rumors persist online about possible new music and unreleased projects, nothing official has been confirmed by Usher or his team. For now, his public appearances, award wins, media stunts, and business ventures are keeping him firmly at the center of both industry chatter and fan adoration.
