Usher and Swizz Beatz Laughed About Alicia Keys Super Bowl Controversy


Last week Alicia Keys and Usher went viral over their touchy feely performance of, 'My Boo,' at the Super Bowl LVIII halftime show [click here if you missed that]. 

Usher insists it was all innocent fun and that he and Alicia Keys' husband, music producer Swizz Beatz, laughed about all the memes and think pieces...

The "Love in This Club" singer recently sat down for an episode of The Breakfast Club radio show, and spoke with host Charlamagne tha God about his steamy performance at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas on Feb. 11, where Keys was a surprise guest.
"In no way anything done there should have been viewed as bad or in any way perverted or anything like that," Usher said of his duet with Keys, in which the pair got super close while performing their 2004 hit, "My Boo."
"No, it was literally about having fun because of a song that me and Alicia made many years ago," Usher explained. "We celebrated because of the legacy of it, and [meant] no disrespect to anybody."
When asked if he's had a chance to speak with Keys and Beatz about the performance -- and the subsequent flood of memes, jokes and innuendo that followed -- Usher said, "Absolutely! We've laughed about it... it's all love."
