Here’s How Alicia & Usher Got Down At Halftime
Alicia announced her presence on the Apple Music stage with a giant red cape flowing in the wind as she played the keys on an abstract piano. When she stood up, the ‘Girl On Fire’ singer wore a glittering red Dolce & Gabbana outfit with long sleeves, a corset, and curve-hugging pants.

Online users showed both performers love for the looks, but what really had the people going was how intimate the ‘My Boo’ performance got.
At one point, Usher wrapped his arms around Alicia’s waist while standing behind her with his eyes closed. While they harmonized together, the two also played a cat-and-mouse flirtation. From an artist’s standpoint, the performance fit the song’s vibe.

Still, given Alicia’s married status and the fact that Usher got his marriage license a couple of days ago, the innanet was SHOOK.
Well, Swizz Beatz has now squashed any theories folks had about him being upset at the performance! Alicia and Usher have not shared their thoughts on how they think they did.
