While the Yeah hitmaker’s performance didn’t disappoint, viewers were left heartbroken when the halftime show ended and the cameras panned to Justin and wife Hailey who were sitting in the stands.

The last time Justin and Usher performed together was at the 2011 Grammy’s when the pair delivered a jaw-dropping performance.

And although Justin didn’t sing alongside Usher, fans were still thrilled with the halftime show nonetheless.

Usher was joined by stars Alicia Keys, H.E.R., Lil John, Ludacris, will.i.am and Jermaine Dupri, and gave the fans what they wanted by stripping off his shirt to showcase his impressive abs.

He opened up the show on a high note with a super-short excerpt of his song Caught Up, from his hit 2004 album Confessions, followed by U Don’t Have To Call and his hit Love In This Club.

Alicia Keys joined Usher as a special guest, and she didn’t disappoint. The songstress appeared in a sizzling red sequined Dolce & Gabbana bodysuit to match her red piano.

Lil John and Ludacris weren’t far behind and jumped in to accompany Usher for Yeah! his mega hit from 2004, and H.E.R. accompanied him on guitar.

Usher opened his performance in an opulent white overcoat draped over his shoulders that was decorated with silver-sequined designs from Dolce & Gabbana.

He quickly shed it, thanks to some help from his backup dancers, to reveal his white cropped jacket, which he paired with matching pants.

Usher was joined by numerous male and female backup dancers, though there didn’t appear to be any clear theme to their first set of costumes.

Some of them seemed to be dressed as circus performers, and one male dancer was seen being launched into the air from one side of the stage to the other, as if he had been fired out of a cannon.

Usher switched into slow jam mode with his second song U Don’t Have To Call, followed by an energizing rendition of Superstar and a high energy version of Love In This Club.

Usher, who wore a single bejeweled glove, possibly as a tribute to Michael Jackson, looked affectionate as he wrapped his arms around her.

The hitmaker was celebrating the 20th anniversary of his most enduring album, Confessions, which got a shoutout from Jermaine Dupri before the next section of the stage show.

He opened with a rapid-fire Confessions Part II, before sliding into the appropriately titled Nice & Slow.

Usher, who had stripped down to his sleeveless silver-sequined shirt, made his Michael Jackson tribute even more explicit with his dance moves, which included moon walking in the style of the late icon.

Quick versions of Burn and Bad Girl followed, before Usher broke out his hit U Got It Bad, which featured a scene-stealing guitar solo from H.E.R.

Prince was previously cited as one of the artists Usher would be paying tribute to, and her fiery guitar work may have been an homage to the singer, who died in 2016, as he was also celebrated for his guitar playing.

Many Usher fans were likely hoping he would play his monster hit Yeah! and they weren’t disappointed when Lil John appeared to signal it was on the way.

However, the rapper got to introduce himself first with his own song Turn Down For What to hype up the audience.

Kelce and his team headed out to The Strip to party through the night after clinching back-to-back Super Bowls and Taylor joined them along with rapper Ice Spice, Blake Lively and Ludacris.
