Report: Usher going to have a Super Bowl guest star
Usher has indeed dialed up duets for Sunday’s Super Bowl.
Alicia Keys is reportedly joining the two-time Strip residency headliner. TMZ posted sightings of Keys rehearsing at Allegiant Stadium on Thursday.
Officials with show producer Roc Nation have not independently verified Keys’ involvement, but the celeb site refers to this report as Usher’s first confirmed halftime guest.
The two are expected to revive their 2004 hit, “My Boo,” a favorite at Usher’s “My Way” productions at Dolby Live at Park MGM and, prior, the Colosseum at Caesars Palace. Speculation beyond Keys for Usher’s guest roster has centered on such previous collaboration partners as Ludacris, Lil Jon, Pitbull and Young Jeezy.
