If Usher acting at the Super Bowl Halftime Show wasn’t exciting enough, viewers could also be excited to listen to that Alicia Keys may join him on stage!
TMZ‘s report claims that they recently spotted Keys on the Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Nevada, where the sport will happen this Sunday (February 11).
Alicia Keys Reportedly Seen Rehearsing With Usher Ahead Of His Halftime Show
Onlookers claim to have seen her performing with the ‘Yeah’ singer, whom she previously collaborated with on their 2004 song, ‘My Boo.’
The track was widely successful, reaching No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 for six weeks, oh-kay!
So, understandably, Usher doesn’t want to go away this R&B jam off his setlist.
Sources for the news publication imagine Keys is one among the guests who will grace the stage through the halftime show.
Jon and Luda are currently in Vegas, although their participation hasn’t been confirmed yet.
But they did star within the recently-released Apple Music Super Bowl industrial. The advert featuring Taraji P. Henson further indicates their involvement within the show.

TMZ further claims that Usher reportedly talked with Justin Bieber about potentially hitting the stage with him.
But insiders haven’t verified if he’s signed on, let alone confirmed his attendance at this Sunday’s game.
Regardless of the case, the ‘Nice & Slow’ hitmaker incorporating three many years of hits into his performance will certainly make this a memorable show.
Usher has already revealed that he negotiated a two-minute extension to the standard 13 minutes given to performers for his or her halftime show.
Usher’s Halftime Show Prolonged By Two Minutes
The NFL agreeing to that is a reasonably large deal, considering no artist in recent times has had a show last a whopping quarter-hour.
It only adds to the speculation that a handful of stars will join him to have fun his music profession.
“I can’t explain why, however it’s a funny thing that I used to be in a position to do and craft,” Usher told Entertainment Weekly as he spoke on lengthening his halftime show. “That was an enormous strategic thing that happened between me and my agency.”
News of Keys reportedly joining Usher on the Super Bowl comes on the heels of the singer extending his upcoming North American tour.
The Grammy winner recently announced he’s heading on the road this May for his “Past, Present, Future” tour.
As a consequence of high demand, he has since added 17 shows to his calendar, including two extra shows on the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, Recent York.
He now expects to conclude the nationwide leg along with his third and final show on the United Center in Chicago, Illinois, on Halloween.
After all, that’s unless he adds more dates.
Go ‘head, Usher!
