As Usher brought the heat during his Prince and Hip-Hop halftime tribute at the 2023 Super Bowl, one celebrity spectator felt he could have turned up the sizzle even more. Golf influencer and media star Paige Spiranac took to Twitter to say Usher “missed a trick” by not ripping off his pants during the performance.
In her signature cheeky fashion, Spiranac suggested the R&B icon should have emulated Prince’s iconic moment tearing away his trousers 30 years ago. While Usher dazzled with his flashy dance moves in his bedazzled jacket, the lack of surprise striptease left Spiranac wanting more spice in the show.
Her tweet quickly amassed over 25,000 likes from amused followers. But not everyone felt Usher needed to go full monty to impress. Some fans defended the hip swiveling hitmaker, saying bare glutes weren’t necessary to make it an entertaining show.
However, Spiranac clearly knows how to spark viral chatter with her hot takes. The golf glamor girl has mastered fusing sports commentary with spicy opinions through a fun, unfiltered lens. She shows shredding taboos can be great for business and building a personal brand empire.
So while Usher meets with overall praise for his halftime homage, Spiranac’s saucy view suggests even mega stars can benefit from taking more bold, cheeky risks. Perhaps she’ll incorporate some edgy stripteases herself if she ever headlines the big game’s midway spectacle!
