In an unconformable on-stage moment, Usher asked a fan to leave after she visibly rejected getting into his seductive dance moves.
During the Friday, July 24, R&B Tour show in Nashville, the “U Got It Bad” hitmaker, 47, performed alongside a female fan from the audience, per fan footage shared via Instagram in the show’s aftermath.
In the video, the shirtless musician, who is currently co-headlining The R&B Tour with Chris Brown, is seen serenading the fan before he begins to lean into her while sitting on a bed. As Usher then attempts to nuzzle the neck of the fan, the pair bend backwards onto the bed as the fan maintains a rigid position.
The singer, real name Usher Raymond IV, is then seen shifting his face towards the fan’s face to engage more intimately with her, however the fan remains tight-lipped throughout the pair’s interaction. As Usher then lifts his head to look into the woman’s eyes, he flashes her a brief glance before slowly turning his head towards the crowd with a puzzled expression plastered to his face.
Is there a new feud brewing? Usher and Chris Brown were spotted arguing during a Las Vegas party early on Saturday, May 6. Usher, 44, and Brown had gotten into a heated exchange at the “Go Crazy” rapper’s 34th birthday party at Skate Rock City roller rink in Las Vegas, according to a video obtained […]
“I don’t think she wants to be on the stage,” the singer then says before walking away from the bed, removing his two ear pieces and shaking his hand at the bed in a gesture for her to leave the stage altogether.
The awkward moment drew mixed responses from fans who took to the post’s comments section to offer their takes. “Why would she go up there then?” posed one fan, while another wrote, “I respect her.”
Another social media user commented on Usher’s reaction during the moment, summing it up as, “She killed his ego a little bit, bro ain’t used to that.”

Usher and Brown, 37, announced their tour in April, sharing a joint Instagram post that declared it was “time.” The announcement attracted backlash due to Brown’s legal issues over the years, which included allegations of abuse against women. (Brown pleaded guilty to the felony assault of his 2009 girlfriend Rihanna, serving five years of probation.)
Brown addressed the backlash in an Instagram Story shared on April 26. “The funniest and the weirdest s*** ever to me is the fact that poeple [sic] have the option to come to my tour and the option not to,” he wrote at the time. “I know everyone who is a fan of me and USHER will definitely be in the building and it will be PACKED just like last year.”
