The night's biggest performer was Usher, whose electrifying halftime show demonstrated that even after 30 years in the business, the singer remains the undisputed King of R&B.?
The 45-year-old musician, who released his ninth studio album, Coming Home, only days before the performance, drew from his three-decade career to give a spectacle that underlined Usher's status as an unrivaled performer.
The singer, who just wrapped up a sold-out 100-show Las Vegas residency (which was so popular, it was extended twice), put on a flashy performance of epic proportions that included a number of surprises, including Usher dancing on roller skates, a marching band that spelled out his name, and surprise appearances from collaborators like Jermaine Dupri, Lil Jon, Ludacris, Alicia Keys, will.i.am, and H.E.R.
