Usher Gets Emotional During Final Performance of Las Vegas Residency
Grammy Award-winning singer Usher concluded his much-adored “My Way” Las Vegas residency with a Dec. 2 performance brimming with emotion.
The heartwarming moment unfolded during his rendition of the 2011 dance track “Without You.” As the music played, the iconic figure dropped to his knees and covered his face with his hands as he was surrounded by his team of on-stage dancers and collaborators.
A video captured by a fan showed the shirtless future Super Bowl Halftime Show performer becoming visibly emotional, turning away from the crowd at Dolby Live in Park MGM.
After a brief moment and celebration with his crew, Usher turned back to the audience and initiated an acappella singalong, passionately stomping his feet. "God bless you, I love you," the singer expressed to the cheering fans.
Later, the star celebrated the final show by sharing a clip from 2004 in which he discussed the idea of someday having a Vegas residency with Trevor Nelson.
“I am such a theatrical artist," he said in the video. “If I did decide to go to Las Vegas, it would be the most phenomenal thing you've ever seen in your life.” In a reflective caption, Usher wrote, “I saw it then…look at me now.”
