USHER has graced the Super Bowl with his presence, but he suffered a major technology malfunction during the big show.
Usher, 45, was awarded the honor of performing during the Super Bowl halftime show this year.

As fans screamed and dancers surrounded him, fans at home could barely hear the singer.
At the very beginning of his epic performance, the sound from his microphone cut in and out.
The giant microphone, that stretched across his face and covered half of his mouth, just wasn’t cutting it.
It wasn’t until Usher brought out another major star, Alicia Keys, that the sound finally stabilized.
Halfway through the performance, it seemed that the sound team switched out his microphone.
He was soon standing in front of a typical microphone and mic stand that would be seen at most concerts.
Not long after that, Usher appeared with another microphone attached to his face so he could freely dance – and rollerskate – around the stage.
Thankfully, the sound levels evened out from the middle of the performance to the end.
SOUND CHECKED
Football fans on X, formerly known as Twitter, slammed the halftime team for the tech issue.
One asked: “Why did they do #Usher so dirty with that trash audio quality?”
“Who was doing the mic check because I can’t hear usher’s voice that well,” another wrote with crying emojis.
A third added: “I’m glad they swapped his mic. I was going to be SO disappointed if Usher couldn’t hit those notes like he used to.”
“That was a different show. Lots of surprise elements something new.
“Wish the mic was louder but solid 7/10. Old people are a little lost but whatever,” commented another fan.
A fifth said: “I don’t know what is worse: The offense in the first half or Usher’s mic.”
