Chris Brown and Usher faced off this weekend, but it wasn’t in a dance battle. The R&B heavyweights got into a verbal and physical altercation at Brown’s birthday party, which TMZ first reported. The exchange allegedly happened after Brown attempted to remove Teyana Taylor from the party. Reports say that Brown tried to confront Taylor over his scrapped American Music Awards tribute to Michael Jackson – which she played a role in planning.
However, Taylor allegedly ignored him, and Usher stepped in to defend her while Brown moved to kick her out. Although the heated exchange put a damper on the night, it did not stop the two from putting on top-quality performances at Usher’s Lovers and Friends music festival Saturday. Backstage at the festival was a different story as footage surfaced of Chris Brown getting into a verbal exchange with someone else. Neither artist has directly addressed their alleged scuffle, but Usher did post on social media showing off his face to let the people know that he is unscathed.
While Usher and Chris Brown brought celebrities out to Las Vegas for their respective events, Formula One Miami also brought them out. Fans of racing traveled to The Miami Grand Prix, which is a Formula One Grand Prix held for the first time in 2022. Stars including P.Diddy, Busta Rhymes, Damson Idris, Larsa Pippen, Karrueche Tran and others made appearances during the events. The Miami Grand Prix kicked off on Friday and concluded on Sunday.
