Okay but did Usher just turn Taraji P. Henson into a puddle of emotions in front of thousands of people?! Because honey, the videos don’t lie and she was DOWN BAD!
During the Las Vegas stop of his and Chris Brown’s joint “R&B” tour, Usher decided that one lucky fan deserved the full VIP treatment and that fan just happened to be the “Empire” queen herself, Taraji P. Henson. The R&B legend spotted her in the crowd, pulled her onstage, and gave her the kind of one-on-one attention that would leave ANY woman speechless. And chile, speechless she was!
Taraji was in full fangirl meltdown mode the entire time, and honestly, who could blame her? Usher gave her that signature smooth treatment that has been breaking hearts since the early 2000s. She could barely contain herself, fanning her face, looking absolutely SHOOK, and trying to hold it together while the entire arena watched her become a certified Usher stan in real time. The way she was moving, the way she was GLOWING, even Usher looked like he was enjoying every second of it!
Fans on social media wasted ZERO time clocking Taraji’s reaction and turning it into a whole mood. One person wrote, “Taraji fighting for her LIFE rn” while another added, “Usher has women from 18 to 80 acting the same way and that’s called RANGE.” Several fans joked that Taraji finally found her “moment” after all those years of being a professional, and honestly, we love to see a celebrity let their guard down for the King of Confessions!
The clip has been circulating all over the internet and people cannot stop talking about it. Taraji has always played it cool on the red carpet but this? This was a whole different vibe. Whether she’s been secretly an Usher superfan this whole time or she just got caught up in the moment, one thing is for sure, the internet has crowned her the MVP of the entire tour and she’s not even an opening act!
What do you think? A) Taraji was absolutely justified in her meltdown because Usher is THAT guy B) She needs to get herself together, this was embarrassing
