In a dazzling showcase of talent and charisma, global music icon Usher recently graced the Apple Music Super Bowl LVIII Halftime Show Press Conference in Las Vegas, engaging in a revealing conversation with Apple Music Radio host Nadeska Alexis. Reflecting on his illustrious 30-year career, Usher shared insights into his historic moment as the first independent artist to headline the Super Bowl, recounted a nerve-wracking experience from his 2011 Super Bowl appearance, and discussed his deep connection with Las Vegas, hinting at potential future endeavors in the city.
Usher’s anticipation for the performance was palpable as he humorously lamented missing out on a childhood rite of passage—getting ‘slimed’ on Nickelodeon. He also promised a memorable showcase, with his roller skates playing a significant role in Sunday’s halftime show, adding a personal touch to his performance.
Adding to the Super Bowl fever, Apple Music unveiled a captivating short film titled “Where’s Usher?” The film, underscored by 14 of Usher’s greatest hits, takes viewers on an exhilarating escapade through Las Vegas. The narrative follows a star-studded cast including Ludacris, Taraji P. Henson, Lil Jon, Wesley Snipes, J Balvin, Anderson .Paak, and others as they embark on a frantic search for Usher following a night of unforgettable Vegas antics. The mission: to locate the King of R&B in time for his career-defining performance at the Apple Music Super Bowl Halftime Show.
