The best memes from Usher's Super Bowl halftime show

  • Usher performed a medley of his biggest hits at the Super Bowl halftime show on Sunday.

  • A moment when he donned roller skates and danced across the stage inspired memes.

  • Other moments from the halftime show, like the surprise guest appearances, also resulted in jokes.

Usher's Super Bowl halftime show had it all: a setlist stuffed with hit songs, special guests, outfit changes, slick choreography, and even roller skating.

Before Usher took the stage at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas on Sunday, a "warning" from Apple Music teased a performance that could cause singing, dancing, sweating, and more. But what fans didn't predict is that Usher's 13-minute performance would provide fodder for numerous memes.

Here are the best jokes from the halftime show.

Alicia Keys was the first special guest who joined Usher. Her voice cracked at the start of "If I Ain't Got You" — and it didn't go unnoticed.

The collaborators got close while performing their 2004 duet "My Boo."

Jermaine Dupri made a cameo to introduce "Confessions Part II." People mistook him for musician CeeLo Green.

Usher began sweating profusely as the halftime show continued.

As Usher started performing "U Got It Bad," he removed his jacket and his white tank — eliciting cheers from the crowd. His dance moves also inspired some memes.

Five-time Grammy winner H.E.R. shredded the electric guitar — but some people confused her with 10-year-old North West, Kim Kardashian and Ye's daughter.

Usher sang and danced along to "OMG" following an intro from will.i.am. — while gliding across the stage on roller skates. It was a highlight of the show.

Millennials were thrilled by Ludacris and Lil Jon joining Usher to perform "Turn Down for What" and "Yeah!"

But people were also concerned for the man in the blue shirt who was thrown into the air during "Turn Down for What."

Many fans suspected that Justin Bieber, who previously collaborated with Usher, would dust off his purple Supras and appear onstage. Much to the disappointment of Beliebers, he stayed seated in the crowd with his wife, Hailey Bieber.

Even though Usher excluded some fan-favorite songs from his performance, people were pleased by his halftime show.
