Usher's Nashville moment sparks VIP drama as fan is escorted off stage
At a Nashville stop on Usher and Chris Brown’s tour, Usher invited fan Gabrielle Cheyenne onstage for a Can U Handle It? moment but halted the routine and had her escorted off after she appeared uncomfortable; the clip went viral and sparked online debate about consent and reactions. Cheyenne later clapped back on Facebook claiming she and her mom were upgraded to VIP before the show and that they weren’t told what she’d do onstage, criticizing commenters who speculated about “pretty privileges,” with her mother also weighing in in support. The tour continues with dates elsewhere.
