Vogue reported that the artist is set to deliver an extraordinary choreography for the big performance. At one point, he even plans to incorporate roller skating, something he's showcased in the past.

According to Entertainment Weekly, the performance is set to span about 15 minutes. This duration is somewhat extended compared to previous acts.

While the musician hasn't confirmed his song choices for the performance, there's speculation that "U Got It Bad", a notable hit from 2001 holding the number one spot on the HOT 100 list, might be included.

Apple, a Super Bowl sponsor, released an advert on its YouTube channel today, exciting the forthcoming "Apple Music Super Bowl Halftime" show featuring Usher.

You might find something interesting: It's hard to believe what she did. The video sparked considerable outrage among internet users.

Earlier this week, the company announced that they would release an exclusive collection of Usher's content in anticipation of his Super Bowl halftime show. Usher might use the Super Bowl as a promotional opportunity for his latest album, which is due to be launched on Friday.

Forbes informs that Usher will not be paid for his halftime performance like all the other performers.

The 58th Super Bowl is scheduled for Sunday, 11th February, at the Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. Usher is due to perform during the halftime of the final as part of the Apple Music Halftime Show.

Other performers lined up to take the stage that evening include Reba McEntire, Post Malone, and Andra Day.
