Usher elevated the Super Bowl with his astonishing Halftime performance.

However, an unforeseen technological glitch marred the highly-anticipated show.

Given the prestigious opportunity, singer-songwriter Usher chose to captivate the audience during this year's halftime extravaganza at the Super Bowl.

Usher Super Bowl Halftime - The Drama

Amid the loud cheers from the crowd and the mesmerizing dance routines unfolding around him, Usher struggled to reach the ears of those tuning in from the comfort of their homes with his voice.

The massive microphone, extending over his facial features and engulfing a significant portion of his lips, proved ineffective.

Only when Usher introduced his guest, Alicia Keys, did the audio begin to find its balance.

The "Confessions" hitmaker surprised the audience by also inviting his long-time collaborator Ludacris onto the stage to deliver a stunning rendition of their chart-topping anthem, "Yeah!"

Shortly after that, Usher emerged on the stage with an additional microphone that allowed him to dance and gracefully glide on roller skates.

As the performance progressed, the sound levels harmonized and remained balanced until its conclusion.

Usher Sabotaged?

Critics on X, formerly Twitter, expressed their disappointment towards the Super Bowl halftime show's producers due to technical difficulties.

"In what manner did they mistreat Usher by providing such poor audio quality?" questioned an individual.

"Who was responsible for conducting the microphone check?" another asked.

"Whoever is in charge of the halftime show audio is going to be looking for a new job tomorrow. This is awful!," a third said.

Another fourth fan mentioned that the halftime show had incorporated various unexpected elements, such as an audio mishap, making it a unique experience.

"However, there was some disappointment regarding the microphone's volume, although overall, the performance was still rated a solid 7 out of 10."

Already in Vegas

Following the performance, it has been claimed that Usher has recently made headlines with plans to tie the knot with his long-time partner, Jennifer Goicoechea.

Recently unveiled court records revealed that the renowned singer successfully obtained a marriage license in Clark County, Nevada, on February 8th, according to E Online.

Inspired by the guidance provided by his spiritual advisor, Amba Kahly Su, as reported by the Daily Mail, the decision to tie the knot came naturally to him.
