- Alicia Keys made her appearance by first tickling the ivories on her flowing red space-age piano. She sparkled in the night sky with her sizzling red bodysuit
Fans went crazy last night after seeing Usher perform with Alicia Keys during their steamy Super Bowl halftime segment.
The 45-year-old R&B icon put on a major showcase of his decades of hits for an A-list audience that included fellow superstars Taylor Swift, Beyonce, Jay-Z, Lady Gaga and even Beatles legend Paul McCartney.
Alicia Keys made her appearance by first tickling the ivories on her flowing red space-age piano.
She sparkled in the night sky with her sizzling red bodysuit that was decorated with sequins. The look consisted of a sheer top and sleeves, while it featured a dark red corset-style midriff.
Usher, who wore a single bejeweled glove, possibly in tribute to Michael Jackson, looked affectionate and wrapped his arms around her.

It was previously reported that Alicia Keys would be joining Usher, and she did not disappoint
Alicia was allowed to shine solo with her song Ain’t Got You, which served as an introduction, before Usher rejoined her for their duet My Boo.
She left the piano and walked around the stage as she and the headliner exchanged verses on the romantic tune.
Usher celebrated the 20th anniversary of his most enduring album, Confessions, which got a shoutout from Jermaine Dupri before the next part of the show.
He opened with a rapid-fire Confessions Part II, before moving into the aptly titled Nice & Slow.
Fans were quick to mention Keys’ longtime husband, hip-hop producer Swizz Beatz, saying she got a little too up close and personal during the star-studded performance.
One person wrote: ‘No, the usher was a little too sensitive about Alicia Keys.’
Another person commented on X: “Shoutout to Usher for the way he pinned Alicia Keys on stage.” A third added: “Usher and Alicia Keys make us blush during the Super Bowl aftertime show.”
And another was shocked to discover that Usher and Keys are not actually in a relationship. They said, ‘You’re telling me bod and Alicia Keys are married to other people…’ BRUH. I was convinced they were married to each other, as the messenger was completely confused last night.’
Keys and Beatz married in 2010 and have two children together, both of whom were in the stadium watching their mother during Sunday night’s halftime show.
Usher is currently in a relationship with Jenn Goicoechea.
