1. What did Usher get paid for performing at the Super Bowl halftime show?

   Usher didn't get paid for his performance at the 2024 Super Bowl, which is the case every year.

   The NFL don't pay artists to perform on the world-class stage, with spokesperson Joanna Hunter telling Forbes in 2016 that: “We do not pay the artists. We cover expenses and production costs."

   However, the host of the halftime show is Apple Music, so it is unclear whether or not Usher received a fee through them.

   

   Usher has just released a new album called 'Coming Home', and has announced a 24-date North American tour to celebrate this.

   As for international tour dates, nothing has been confirmed, however Usher has been dropping a lot of hints!
