“I’ve happened to be around a few people who’ve played the Super Bowl, and they did give me some pointers,” Usher told Billboard. “I also happened to be on a boat not too long ago with Katy Perry, who gave me some notes.”
He continued, mentioning last year’s performer: “I heard that Rihanna stood up for me [in a December interview with E! News] and said something really incredible [about Usher’s qualifications for the gig]. I really appreciated that.”
“I’ve watched every performer, analyzing how they maximized those 12 minutes. But you know, your moment is your moment. And this is a moment I’ve prepared for during the last 30 years,” he added.
