An awkward moment from Usher’s Nashville concert is still making the rounds online, and now the singer is finally addressing it.

Usher is currently on The R&B Tour with Chris Brown During and during his signature audience interaction, Usher invited a fan on stage, but it quickly became obvious she wasn’t into it. He stopped the moment, acknowledged the awkwardness, and sent her back to her seat.

After the clip went viral, the woman explained that she had been upgraded to VIP and didn’t realize she’d be part of the show. She also admitted that if Chris Brown had invited her on stage instead, her reaction would’ve been completely different.

Usher responded at his next concert with a warning for future fans: “Don’t bring your ass up here if you don’t want to be here.”

It also has me wondering if this could’ve been avoided altogether. Maybe someone backstage should be checking with VIP guests before bringing them on stage. A simple, “If you’re picked, are you cool going up with Usher? Or would you rather stay in your seat?” could’ve saved everyone from an awkward viral moment.

Was Usher right for calling it out, or should the concert crew have done a better job making sure the fan actually wanted to be part of the show? Let me know in the comments below!
