After making us all go “Yeah!” at the Super Bowl halftime show in February, Usher didn’t just kick back and watch the rest of the big game between the Kansas City Chiefs and the San Francisco 49ers.
The R&B superstar rushed right out of Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas to another pressing engagement: his wedding to longtime love Jenn Goicoechea.
After getting their marriage license on Feb. 8, the couple tied the knot at Vegas Weddings’ drive-thru lane on Feb. 11 — with an Elvis impersonator doing the honors.
“It was an abrupt thing,” Usher, 45, told The Post in an exclusive interview for our new “Music to My Years” video series. “We decided at the last minute to do it.”
Getting hitched after arguably the biggest performance of his career was the ultimate victory celebration for Usher Raymond IV.
“What was already an amazing moment was peaked by a moment that I will remember forever,” he said. “I was very happy to not only conclude my time in Las Vegas with the residency and then the Super Bowl, but to start on a new journey with my amazing wife.
“And I was very happy to do it there,” he continued. “It’s probably one of the easiest ceremonies that I’ve ever experienced in my life … I [was able to] really enjoy this moment between me and my wife and my children and my intimate and immediate family who was there.”
The eight-time Grammy winner — who has a new concert film, “Usher: Rendezvous in Paris,” in theaters through Sunday — has two children with Goicoechea: daughter Sovereign Bo, 3, and son Sire Castrello, 2. He also has two sons from his first marriage to Tameka Foster: Usher “Cinco” V, 16, and Naviyd Ely, 15.
His two older sons are about the same age that Usher was when he made his self-titled debut as a 15-year-old 30 years ago on Aug. 30, 1994.
“Part of it is almost out-of-body because I now feel like I’m my mother at times, trying to ration with my boys,” he said with a laugh. “The other half of it is beautiful because I get a chance to be patient and help them within their process of discovering what they want to do with their lives.
“They’re not me; I’m not them,” Usher went on. “And to be available for them, to help them, is something that I daily work on and I care about. I want them to find what they want to do, and I want them to be passionate, not only because they see me passionate, but know that I am passionate about them finding what they want to do.”
As Usher continues on his Past Present Future Tour — just finishing four sold-out dates at Barclays Center — he is celebrating and reflecting on his three-decade career.
“In 30 years, I’ve learned a lot, I’ve lived a lot, I’ve loved a lot,” he told The Post. “And I feel like all of the experiences that I’ve had have only made me better, have only reminded me that staying the course and making it about the music and the dedication to creating something that makes people feel something is worthwhile.”
