Singer Usher shuts down claims he and Justin Bieber got into ‘heated exchange’ at Oscars party

American singer, Usher,  has shut down claims that he got into an intense argument with Justin Bieber at Beyonc and Jay-Zs Oscars afterparty. Last week, TMZ reported the Baby singer, 32, and his former mentor, 47, got into a heated exchange after Usher went up to Bieber at the star-studded bash angrily. But Ushers friend Da Brat said the Yeah! singer told her the report was exaggerated, during an episode of The Rickey Smiley Show. I spoke to Usher, and he said, This is an exaggeration of the conversation, Da Brat said. Hes been nothing but supportive of plenty of issues that Justin Bieber has had throughout the years and yall can actually check the records for all that, he has been. Justin is on his own journey, dealing with his own reality that hes created, she continued. Usher wishes him nothing but the best, and they have no hostility towards each other. The rapper noted that the two singers definitely love each other. People just take stuff out of context when they see something, and they run with it, and Im just here to say that is not the issue, she said. They are definitely cool with each other, and they have love and they support each other. According to TMZs sources, while Bieber and Ushers alleged altercation did not turn physical, it was intense. A source claimed to the outlet that Bieber has always been rude to Usher, and hes trying to erase everyone in his past. Usher and Biebers former manager, Scooter Braun, were key figures in the early stages of Biebers career, with Usher serving as a longtime mentor. Sources told Page Six in February 2024 that Usher asked his former protg to take part in his Super Bowl halftime show, but Bieber wasnt feeling it. A music industry source told us a the time.Theres no bad blood between Usher and Justin. Justin just wasnt up for it he just wasnt feeling it. Usher and Bieber share a long-standing history in the music industry, with Usher playing a key role in mentoring Bieber during the early stages of his career alongside music manager Scooter Braun.
