About this listen
Usher has been front and center in entertainment headlines this week after his very public appearance at the Backstreet Boys’ "Into The Millennium" Las Vegas residency at The Sphere. The Grammy winner attended the show on July 28 with his wife Jennifer Goicoechea, posting a video to X and Instagram showing off his nostalgia and vocal chops as he belted out classics like "I Want It That Way" and "Everybody" right along with the crowd. "Backstreet’s back… had to pull up to the Sphere and enjoy an iconic night," Usher shared with his more than 10 million followers—sparking online buzz and a chorus of fans and fellow stars gleefully calling the moment "legends supporting legends," as reported by Sportskeeda and seen across social media.
Entertainment Tonight showcased Usher’s enthusiastic singalong and highlighted that he’s no stranger to the Vegas lights, having helmed not one but two major residencies himself. His playful energy—visible in videos circulating on Instagram and YouTube—was a key talking point for fans, with many begging for a future Usher-Backstreet Boys collaboration or even a solo Sphere residency of his own. One user summed up the mood: "You gotta get up on the stage next time Usher!"
On the business front, Usher’s name continues to be associated with major wealth and influence. Totempool pegs his net worth at $240 million, emphasizing his luxury real estate holdings and record label co-ownership, reinforcing his status as an entrepreneurial mogul beyond the music scene. While there are always rumors about potential new projects and investments, so far everything publicly confirmed points to steady expansion rather than any single big reveal this week.
As for community initiatives, the focus turned briefly to Usher’s longstanding philanthropy. Instagram posts from late July show celebrations for the graduation of interns from Usher’s New Look Foundation, symbolizing his continuing impact on youth empowerment and mentorship. Locally, some tribute events spotlighted his music, with dedicated "Usher Tribute" nights popping up in Atlanta, as seen on Instagram.
While social media has been awash with speculation about possible surprise appearances and upcoming concert announcements, at this time there is no verified information hinting at new music releases or headline-making collaborations in the immediate future. Instead, the story of the moment is Usher, the superstar, living his best fanboy life and reminding everyone why he’s just as beloved in the crowd as he is on stage.
