The ‘Hey Daddy’ hitmaker Usher, in February, captivated the audience with his electric performance at the Super Bowl halftime show. Now, word has surfaced that, for the highly-awaited half-time stage Usher had invited BTS’ golden maknae to share the stage with him. However, Jungkook had to decline the coveted invite.

Following Jungkook’s collaboration with Usher for ‘Standing Next to You’ for his debut solo album ‘Golden’ fans eagerly waited for them to perform the track in the Super Bowl. However, the BTS star had to decline the offer due to his military enlistment commitments. Meanwhile, reportedly, Usher dazzled the audience with an electrifying medley of 11 songs. For his anticipated stage comeback, Usher was joined by a studded line-up of appearances from Ludacris, H.E.R, Lil Jon and others.
