Usher is gearing up to deliver an unforgettable performance during the Super Bowl Halftime show, as the singer has lined up an impressive lineup of special guests.
Plans for his halftime performance have undergone several changes, ensuring that fans will be treated to a truly dynamic and ever-evolving set over the past few months.
Usher's Halftime Show Unveiled
Usher will grace the stage at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, captivating the audience with his mesmerizing talent this Sunday, February 11, 2024.
Despite not getting any monetary compensation for his performance, Usher, whose birth name is Usher Raymond IV, has the potential to generate a substantial amount through the slot.
It is reportedly expected to significantly bolster his album sales following the release of his highly anticipated album, "Coming Home."
According to sources who spoke to The Sun, the 45-year-old Texas-born perofrmer has been preparing for game day by dedicating several months to rigorous rehearsals.
The majority of these practice sessions have taken place at an undisclosed venue in Los Angeles.
With anticipation building among fans, curiosity regarding Usher's potential onstage collaborators has been a topic of speculation.
"There have been a lot of different plans for the slot in recent months, everything from Cirque du Soleil performers to a drone show which was cut," a source revealed to The Sun. "It's already an expensive set, and some things were just out of budget for the team."
"But it's still set to be a huge performance with huge laminates with lights and special guests being brought out, but there could still be last-minute changes."

It has also come to light that Alicia Keys has been announced as an exciting addition to the upcoming line-up.
Alongside her, the highly talented artists HER and Justin Bieber have also been swirling around in the rumor mill as potential inclusions.
Usher told ET, "I would be a fool to not play 'Yeah!' let's just start there. It would be foolish to make it to Las Vegas, Jon is here, Luda's here, and not play 'Yeah!' "
In a groundbreaking and record-breaking Super Bowl performance, the "Yeah" hitmaker is set to wow the audience with an epic set lasting an unprecedented 15 minutes.
Justin Bieber In Super Bowl Halftime
As reported by TMZ, Usher has supposedly extended a personal invitation to Justin Bieber to partake in the excitement of Las Vegas.
The dad-of-four took on the role of mentor to a young Justin, who was only 13 years old at the time.
With the guidance of Usher and their manager, Scooter Braun, the "Stay" singer embarked on a journey towards becoming a pop sensation.
Last week, after a hiatus of two years, Justin stunned fans by making an unexpected comeback to the stage.
This comes after the "Justice" world tour coming to an abrupt halt in 2022 for the 29-year-old artist due to an unfortunate diagnosis of Ramsay Hunt Syndrome, a condition known to induce facial paralysis. He was forced the star to cancel all scheduled concerts last year.
