Singer Usher will reportedly have pole dancers in classy attire partake in his performance during the 2024 Super Bowl Halftime show.
A source spoke to Page Six exclusively about Usher’s game plan for next year’s big event.
“Usher plans on having… pole dancers — dressed in a tasteful manner, of course, as well as dancers on roller skates,” the source said.
However, the source assured the “Yeah!” singer is “definitely keeping in mind that his younger fans will be watching.”

“[He] just wants to set himself apart and make history as one of the greatest performers to hit the world stage,” the source explained. “Beyoncé, Rihanna, Dr. Dre, Prince and Michael Jackson have all made memorable moments, and now that Usher is taking the stage he wants to do something different, unforgettable, and over-the-top.”
This came after the NFL and Roc Nation announced in a press release the Grammy Award winner will headline Apple Music’s Super Bowl Halftime show at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Nevada, on Feb. 11.
According to the release, “Viewers can expect unprecedented behind-the-scenes access leading to a historic performance on music’s biggest stage.”
“It’s an honor of a lifetime to finally check a Super Bowl performance off my bucket list. I can’t wait to bring the world a show unlike anything else they’ve seen from me before,” Usher said in a statement.
He added, “Thank you to the fans and everyone who made this opportunity happen. I’ll see you real soon.”
“Usher is an icon whose music has left an indelible mark on the cultural landscape throughout his career, we couldn’t be more excited to have him headline this year’s Apple Music Super Bowl Halftime Show,” NFL Head of Music Seth Dudowsky said. “We look forward to working with Usher, Roc Nation, and Apple Music to bring fans another halftime show for the history books.”
