The level of awareness he had at just 13 years 🤯

[@johnthompson3530]

I know..wow!!! Puffy is such a bad influence (but great producer etc).

[@enycesmith5183]

That Diddy part got me thinking he was trying to turn usher out and usher wasn’t having it thank god

[@meloniemccarter1315]

He is known to be bisexual so it didn't matter lol

[@katrinaevans7588]

I think you are sooooo right!

[@jesuswilljudge7296]

He's saying that to save face, that's not what really went down

[@Misnyc]

@@jesuswilljudge7296 really? What really went down?

@@Misnyc its Hollyweird, to get in the industry you have to do rituals

[@corpin08]

Diddy wants to party...u just gotta say no😂

[@BlackGirlHealth]

Yep you gotta tell him no lol

[@katrinaevans7588]

And in his way he did! Does it feel like P.D. was trying to groom him? Or just teach him how to be a "man" at a young age?

[@welcometshuma9143]

You got to protect your integrity and that virgin hole

[@llNATEDOGGll]

Here after the Super Bowl. Legendary performance and he gave it his all. The best halftime performance in a long time by far because of the nostalgia. I'm glad he was on that stage because there really isn't a bigger one in the USA.

[@Purcell23]

Usher definitely deserves his own movie, like why not. Didn’t kno he had such wisdom his mother did a good job raising him. Much respect💯

[@maryzraika]

Not only he's talented, so humble and wise. Usher you're a true gem 💎 ❤❤❤

[@donnajeffreys8252]

Unfortunately most people are quick to believe lies about a person and pass rumors. Sounds like Usher did NOT play Diddy's demonic games thank God

[@katrinaevans7588]

Right!

[@jesuswilljudge7296]

No, Hollyweird, you have to do rituals to get in the industry

[@insanelybri1900]

Can’t wait to see Usher’s performance that’s going to be interrupted by that football game!

[@WAWG716]

🤣🤣 “interrupted by that football game”

[@katrinaevans7588]

He was phenomenal. A week later and people are still talking about it.

[@ljDebra_]

His mother has raised such a gentleman. Well done to her. Who knows how he would have turned out if his toxic father was a part of his life.. His father would have been a major distraction in his path.

[@roxyroy09]

this interview is from 2017 it is now 2024 and Usher looks even younger now!! Amazing artist! Super happy for all of his well earned success!!!

[@katrinaevans7588]

Yes! I thought it was recent, but forgot that Oprah's Masterclass was years ago! He takes very good care of himself! Reminds me of Will Smith.

[@SOI-wl2lo]

Fr

[@daempresssqueen]

But he has on a wedding band.. this can't be long ago, bc he and Tameka was married from 2007-2009. According to Google lol... but yes , I agree. Oprah master class has been a minute ago.... soooo confused 😂😂

[@user-xl5jb2zf7y]

This is a recent interview. The lady he married is the one he married right after the superbowl

[@shockadelica8661]

@@user-xl5jb2zf7yNope. From 2017. He was married to his second wife then.

[@Qtsm5784]

Somebody was praying for Usher. He was covered because he never should have been put in that situation at the age of 13.

[@nm8390]

Amen Usher and Jungkook left home at 13, here we are, they are shining stars. Thank you Lord for them and theirs❤❤

[@TheLadsonsLife]

So glad he is getting his flowers now while he is alive and not when he passes 🙌🏽 must deserved

[@ChillinwithRae]

Now THIS is an entertainer!!!!💜💜

[@Watercandle0219]

I would love to see a part 2 to this. This is an older but good Master Class. He has since divorced and remarried again. I would love to see his growth as of today...

[@seductruss]

Don't step with anger....step with clarity❤❤❤

[@badgalneq]

This is from 2017 and Usher still looks great!

[@lebogang7600]

And he says success is freedom I can definitely agree

[@pamkirby4390]

Nobody loves you loves you like your mom ever, glad you recognized that. Enjoyed your music growing up and can’t wait to see you perform on Super Bowl Sunday! 🤩💛

[@lawrencethomas9303]

You can't do anything but have love for Usher, just a beautiful soul!!!

[@lebogang7600]

When he says there is always a way...that was deep given my thoughts at the moment 😢

[@uniquej808]

I love this man! Fan since 98

[@expertonmyself]

His quote in the opening just spoke to what I’m going through now at my job. “Don’t step with anger. Step with clarity.”

[@llNATEDOGGll]

You performed at the biggest stage in the US and beyond at the Super Bowl and it was THE BEST ONE I ever witnessed. All the hits and then some!!! Perfect transitions and flow and it was so awesome to listen to.

[@pauletteadams4344]

I've had the pleasure of watching Usher perform and develop into the spectacular artist that he is now. I saw him open for Mary J. Blige/Univeral Amphitheater in 2001. It is one of my fondest memories. He was FABULOUS. That was 20 plus years ago. I am proud of him.

[@dawnharris3503]

Usher! Im glad somehow even when you were young you knew where you wanted to end up!

[@BlackGirlHealth]

Now after Cassie, Usher's Diddy story sounds different doesnt it...

[@conjtheruler]

This man is very powerful and inspirational, he's came such a long way with the longevity in his career and his humbleness speaks volumes. He deserves every bit of success in life and will continue to inspire many around him. Congratulations Usher 🎉

[@didntcreateahandle]

Your mother was our Brother’s keeper. Amazing. ❤

[@iam.journeygrace]

I wish they would do another master class with him… he is such a humble man and i feel that his current wife is perfect for him. and he has a daughter and another son.

[@maryantenor-fitzgerald972]

This was really good..he dropped so many gems.

[@mxshlee]

he's so inspiring 😿😿!!! every time i hear him talk in interviews, everywhere, he's always so real yet pushes u to go after ur dreams, it's rlly motivating and moving 🧎🏻‍♀️🧎🏻‍♀️

Right… I was wondering where the wedding ring came from & the pic of his 2nd ex wife.

[@thegodivashorti]

Did they change the thumbnail? The one now doesn’t suggest it’s new, but it says the air date in the description.

Yes that was very confusing…I didn’t realize this wasn’t new until I saw his second wife.
