If you were watching the BET Awards (more on them later) last night, you might have a different impression of Usher's opening performance than I do. My impression is that his dance moves were looking pretty rusty, especially when he tried to be extra with acrobatics at the beginning. Maybe he's getting a little too old for all that? After all, "You Make Me Wanna" and "Nice & Slow" (see above) were more than ten years ago. Painful but true.
I just "youtubed" Usher's performance (I didn't tune in early enough) and you are right, it was just off…I've seen Usher in concert 3 times (I am something like fanatic :)) and he just didn't pull it out here, plus he was lip syncing, ugh.
Don't they (he, Chris Brown, Janet etc) always lip sync when they dance like that????? If they don't perhaps they should if they are gonna be sounding all out of breath. Who wants to hear that?
