Atlanta's own Usher is slated to headline the Halftime Show. The R&B superstar, known for a string of hits that have provided the soundtrack for many a late-night rendezvous, is bringing his Grammy-winning chops to one of the year's biggest stages.
As per FOX5 Atlanta, the singer's accolades include eight Grammy Awards. Born in Dallas but raised in Chattanooga, Usher discovered his love for music in the church choir at the age of nine and parlayed his passion into a successful career that began with an appearance on "Star Search" at 13.
The R&B singer took a swing at entrepreneurship, owning a slice of the Cleveland Cavaliers and launching various side hustles ranging from a line of fragrances to a wellness company. Usher also knows how to play the court, being a notably skilled basketball player himself.
Usher, known for keeping a foot in the music and business worlds, keeps the public guessing with his multifaceted career and personal escapades, which in the past have included coaching hopefuls on NBC's "The Voice" as reported by FOX5 Atlanta.
My San Antonio highlights that the singer's early church performances in Chattanooga laid the foundation for his superstar career. And his star certainly hasn't dimmed, with sell-out Las Vegas residencies and a forthcoming tour that will see him grace the stage at the Moody Center in Austin two nights in a row. As the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers gear up for their faceoff, Usher is poised to make sure the Halftime show is one for the books.
