Usher arrived at Super Bowl 58 seemingly wearing a blanket and NFL fans immediately had jokes

Is it a blanket? Is it a rug? Nobody knows, but the jokes are hysterical.

On Sunday, Usher arrived at Allegiant Stadium for Super Bowl 58 just hours before his performance, looking happy and in good spirits. Still, fans immediately jumped in with jokes that the covering he was using on top of his clothing had to be a rug or blanket.

So much speculation has been happening about Usher’s Super Bowl 58 halftime performance. What songs will he perform? Will there be special guests? But not very many people have been talking about what he will wear leading up to his big show until now. Cameras were rolling when Usher arrived at Allegiant Stadium sporting all-black clothes and a unique covering.

Fans immediately assumed that the covering was some sort of blanket or rug, and the jokes started flying.

How Usher took over Las Vegas long before the 2024 Super Bowl came to town

Usher is basically from Las Vegas now.

The NFL has completely taken over Las Vegas for the week with the 2024 Super Bowl on Sunday at Allegiant Stadium.

As we know, Usher is going to be the musical act for this year’s halftime show during Super Bowl 58. It should be quite the show to remember. Usher has hits on top of hits that he could play for everyone watching. He’s been doing this, basically, for a little more than 30 years at this point.

It feels so appropriate that Usher is doing the show for Las Vegas’ first Super Bowl. It’s not just because he’s so good, which, don’t get me wrong — he definitely is that.

But he also has become the king of Las Vegas over the last year or so — way before he was ever selected to perform at the Super Bowl.

Some 30 years after his debut album was released, Usher will be performing at Super Bowl LVIII.

Every Super Bowl halftime show performer since the first one in 1967 (2024 edition)

A look at every Super Bowl halftime show performer from the last several decades.

Editor’s note: This story was originally published in 2023 and has been updated.

There’s a little something for everyone when it comes to the Super Bowl. Some are there for the obvious reason: football. But plenty of other people tune in just to watch the very expensive ads, while others are hanging out for the halftime show.

The Super Bowl halftime show is a very big deal for a mini concert that most people watching are, in fact, watching from afar. With superstar artists often headlining the shows, fans are treated to fun performances (though there have been some not great ones as well), plus the nearly guaranteed memes and jokes that follow.

7 guest stars we hope join Usher for the 2024 Super Bowl halftime show

We’re hoping Usher brings out some of these guest stars during the 2024 Super Bowl halftime show.

Super Bowl 58 will bring together some of the NFL’s and the music industry’s top talent with global superstar Usher performing the 2024 Super Bowl halftime show.

Having Usher perform is a huge gift, and we’re not saying he should, but if he gets inspired to bring out some of his musical celebrity friends to perform with him, we are not going to complain.

LeBron James, BTS’ Jungkook sing ‘Yeah!’ in trailer for Usher’s Super Bowl 58 halftime show

There’s not a chance LeBron James knows any lyrics, but Jungkook knows what’s up.

A new Apple Music trailer promoting Usher’s Super Bowl Halftime Show just dropped, and it’s sneaky good.

Usher will grace the Super Bowl LVII stage on Sunday, February 11, a fitting follow-up to his incredible Las Vegas residency, where he sold out every show.

When Apple originally announced Usher’s performance in September 2023, they included an ode to one of his best songs, Confessions, and pushed out alternate versions with the help of several celebrities like Kim Kardashian and Deion Sanders.

But the latest trailer is a rolling mashup of several people and objects re-creating Yeah!, his most famous song. As the clip zooms through, our eyes caught special appearances from LeBron James and Jungkook of BTS.

In case you’re as excited as we are for Usher’s performance, we made a list of 13 songs that we feel will really get the people going.

13 songs Usher should perform at the 2024 Super Bowl

Everyone calm down! We have the list of songs we want Usher to perform at the Super Bowl.

Usher is performing at the Apple Music Super Bowl Halftime Show, and millennials everywhere just pulled a muscle busting out dance moves from the 8701 album. (OK, maybe that was just me, but somebody will catch these moves!)

Usher’s been tearing up his Las Vegas residency since July 2022, bringing childlike joy to his most devoted fans. Now, he’s taking his talents to one of the world’s biggest stages.

When I saw him during his residency’s opening night, he reflectively said, “I got hits, man.” He then blazed through several songs he didn’t have enough time for in his show as a quick ode to those who’ve been with him for decades. That’s when I realized: Usher is that guy!

I put together a list of songs I think he should perform to celebrate this halftime show that is obviously curated for me to scream in my living room like I’m 13 again.

Here’s what Usher needs to perform or we riot:
