The rumor picked up speed after video from Usher’s Aug. 7 performance at New Jersey’s MetLife Stadium began circulating online. There is no secret Usher factory producing backup Ushers, at least according to Usher himself. In the comments of viral posts, fans continued to question whether the person performing was actually Usher or a lookalike. Usher, born Usher Raymond IV, and Brown kicked off the tour in June. At least one thing is clear: Usher says he is still Usher.
