Usher Raymond IV exposed his bare buttocks during a choreographed performance at a recent concert in Maryland on his joint national tour with Chris Brown. Video published on July 15, 2026, shows the incident occurring during Usher’s 2004 song “Seduction,” on a stage set featuring a prop bed. After simulating an intimate encounter with a female performer, Usher stood up, deliberately lowered his trousers to reveal his buttocks, then grabbed an overhead metal bar and did pull-ups while his pants remained down. The episode is part of a tour already noted for highly suggestive routines involving both headlining R&B artists.
