Usher addresses 2014 VMAs performance with inappropriate physical interaction with Nicki Minaj
Usher regrets crossing the line, but he doesn't think it was his fault for taking on Nicki Minaj during her 2014 VMAs performance.
“Asher, have you seen some of your old moments like when you were… [were] On stage with Nicki Minaj and you [were] Hedb*ting her*s? host for breakfast club,Charlamagne Tha God asked the singer during his appearance on Monday, February 19.
“Why [were] Are you very disturbed at this moment, Asher?'
Usher, 45, revealed that the two were inspired by “Jamaican culture” to work together on the collaboration and that their performance She came to give youIt was supposed to be “fun.”
Usher played bass throughout the song while kneeling while Minaj, 41, rapped and in a split second, Usher's head hit Nicki Minaj's butt.
“I was playing bass, so I probably would have bumped my shoulder or my hand, you know what I'm saying?” It is to explain. “It was a bass in my hand so it skewed its body a little bit.”
Usher first defended the concept of the performance, but eventually admitted that when he jokingly grabbed Minaj's back as he stood up, he had gone a little too far.
“I think I had reached a point when I slapped her, though, I wasn't supposed to hit her,” he admitted.
For her part, Minaj has yet to respond to revived rumors about the 2014 VMAs, as a video of the duo quickly resurfaced on social media following Usher's recent halftime show at Super Bowl LVIII.
