Usher visits ‘The Breakfast Club’ and reveals why his protégée, Justin Bieber, skipped performing during halftime. Usher took the stage at the 2024 Super Bowl Halftime Show along with Alicia Keys, H.E.R., will.i.am, Lil Jon and Ludacris.

Usher’s electrifying performance at the 2024 Super Bowl halftime show left fans buzzing with excitement.

However, many were left wondering why Justin Bieber, his protege and one of the biggest names in pop music, didn’t make a cameo appearance alongside him. In an interview with The Breakfast Club, Usher shed some light on the situation, explaining that while there was a brief conversation about Bieber joining him on stage, ultimately Bieber wanted to tell a different story at that moment.

Despite Bieber’s absence, Usher made it clear that there’s no love lost between them and that they have plans to collaborate in the future.

He even hinted at the possibility of Bieber headlining the Super Bowl halftime show someday, expressing his belief in Bieber’s talent and career trajectory.

Speculation about Bieber’s whereabouts on the day of the Super Bowl only added fuel to the fire. Photos surfaced of Bieber entering a hotel in Las Vegas with members of the Kardashian Jenner family, leading some to wonder if he had other engagements that day.

However, Bieber was later seen at Allegiance Stadium, supporting Usher from the Kardashian Jenner box.

After the show, Bieber took to Instagram to express his admiration for Usher, praising his singing and dancing abilities and thanking him for bringing the “A” to the world.

The absence of a Bieber-Usher collaboration on stage may have disappointed some fans, especially considering their history together.

Usher played a pivotal role in mentoring Bieber after he was discovered by Scooter Braun in 2008, and their collaboration on “Somebody to Love” in 2010 further solidified their bond.

While Bieber may not have joined Usher on stage this time, the mutual respect and admiration between the two artists remain evident.

And with Usher’s confidence in Bieber’s future success, fans can still hold out hope for a future collaboration that will undoubtedly set the stage on fire.
