Just like the rest of the world, Usher is also a Blink.
During his interview with GQ magazine, Usher shared a hilarious story about how he was blown away by the KPOP sensation girl group, BLACKPINK.
"I literally went to a BLACKPINK concert in Atlanta, and I was like, man!" He told the magazine, noting that he attended the group's Atlanta stop with his two teenage sons.
"I'm goofy! I'm looking like, 'Wow, this is amazing.' They were putting on a show. Wardrobe, great sequencing, with the lighting and everything working in sync-there's no detail spared. I loved that."
Apparently, the singer was so impressed with the show that it inspired him to tweak some details in his own shows.
"I really wanted to give women something to look forward to, something to come here to Las Vegas with their friends for," he continued.
"They come out and really enjoy themselves for the entire weekend. They want to be able to really get away and have an experience."
Usher is referring to his Las Vegas residency "Usher: My Way," which premiered in July 2022 at the Dolby Live in Park MGM.
According to reports, the crooner's fans can catch a glimpse of the improvements in Usher's shows when he returns onstage in March.
BLACKPINK Super Power
BLACKPINK is a girl group from South Korea that consists of four members-Jennie, Rose, Jisoo, and Lisa.
They debuted back in 2016 but quickly gained international fame and success.
BLACKPINK is considered as one of the biggest-if not, the biggest-girl groups in the world right now.
They managed to set several records, penetrating the American music airwaves with their punchy and upbeat songs.
According to Billboard, they are the first KPOP act to headline the highly anticipated music festival, Coachella, slated in April 2023.
"It's very surprising to us. All the records are the results of our fans, BLINKs, and their unconditional support," Jennie said in an interview.
"Every day we try to acknowledge how grateful we are, but more than the pressure, we are ready to give them back as much as they gave us. It just gives us more motivation to go further than we ever dreamed of."
BLACKPINK is currently on the road with "Born Pink World Tour," which has several stops in North America, Europe, Asia, and others.
