Usher is booked and busy! Indeed, the reigning King of R&B continues to enjoy a layered career that sees no two days serve up the same – be that the task or location.

As such, the performer has been aptly tapped to star in a new commercial for Uber Reserve – which allows customers to pre-book rides up to 30 days before.

In the clip, Usher invites viewers onboard his chaotic day: from photoshoots to interviews to dad life. All of which is made easier by Uber Reserve.

Speaking on the partnership, the icon said:

“Between life as a father of four, rehearsals, and adding even more shows to my Las Vegas residency, I understand the importance of planning ahead to make sure things go ‘My Way.’ Using Uber Reserve to book my rides ahead of time gives me one less thing to worry about. It’s the perfect harmony of ‘Usher’ and ‘Uber.’”

To say “Angela Bassett did the thing” at the 2023 NAACP Image Awards would be an understatement.

At the show’s 54th annual iteration (which was hosted by Queen Latifah and aired February 25), Bassett nabbed another 4 nods across TV and film categories for her work on FOX’s ‘9-1-1’ and ‘Black Panther: Wakanda Forever’ respectively.

Look inside to see how many of the coveted trophies she took home.

Shakira is not done putting her ex-husband in the hot seat.

Case in point, she has shared a new song that features Karol G and in it, she blasts her former flame for moving on with someone new so quickly.

“Seeing you with the new girl hurt me, but I’m now set on me / I’ve forgotten what we lived together, and that’s what you’re offended by / And even my life got better, you are no longer welcome here / And what your girlfriend slayed at me, that doesn’t anger me, it makes me laugh,” she sings.

The song comes shortly after Shakira also referenced her ex on the song ‘Bzrp Music Sessions, Vol. 53.’

Halsey is back with new music.

Case in point, they have just released the solo version of their Post Malone song ‘Die 4 Me.’

“I went through your phone / And called the girls in your DMs. Brought some strangers in our beds / And now you lost your right to privacy,” they sing.

Halsey also throws in a line about their hit song ‘Without Me’ and its relations to their rapper ex. “”I sold 40 million copies of our break-up note,” they sing.

‘Die 4 Me’ originally appareled on Post Malone’s ‘Hollywood’s Bleeding’ album from 2019, however, fans have been craving the solo version, leading to its release.

Today, she lifted the lid on a snippet for the track ‘I Be Chillin.’
