Omarion may be renowned for his zen demeanor, but it appears the aftermath of “that” VERZUZ showdown with Mario has the star saying “oh” for a multitude of reasons.

During the spar, Mario brought out B2K impersonators and joked about the group needing to iron out their much-publicized differences.

Various members of the group reacted on social media by posting a shady clip from The Temptations biopic.

Full story below…

Embracing the new live performance format, the R&B crooners locked horns with spirited renditions of hits such as ‘O,’ ‘Ice Box,’ ‘Let Me Love You’ and ‘Crying Out For Me.’

And as is customary, viewers did not hold back with their views realtime – with everything from vocals (see: Omarion) to dance moves (see: Omarion) to a watermelon (see: Omarion) being dissected with scientific granularity.
