In the most viral moment of the night, the self-proclaimed playa (for real) hugged the very married Alicia Keys from behind in an unexpected reminder why you shouldn’t leave your girl (or wife) around the ageless superstar.

Before that, Usher dazzled 30 million viewers with a world-stopping spectacle featuring fan-favorite hits, electric choreography, multiple outfit changes, classic Atlanta skating rink energy, Jackson State’s Sonic Boom of the South marching band, shimmying Kappas, and more.
The Atlanta-native also brought out special guests H.E.R., Lil Jon, Ludacris, will.i.am, and Jermaine Dupri before making his grand exit from Vegas in Archer Aviation’s futuristic flying car “Midnight” (aka “eVTOL” – Electric, Vertical, Takeoff & Landing aircraft) coming to service major cities around the world in 2025.
But it was Usher and Alicia’s moment that really got people going and eventually lead to a response from Swizz Beatz who took to Instagram to congratulate his wife on her halftime show appearance, letting fans know “Y’all talking about the wrong damn thing.”
“Y’all don’t see that amazing dress covering the entire stadium ⚡️🚨😂😂😮💨😮💨😮💨😮💨,” Beatz continued in his caption. “Tonight’s performance was nothing but amazing with 2 amazing Giants ! Congrats @usher and my love @aliciakeys that song is a classic – We don’t do negative vibes on this side we make history ✌🏽.”
