Usher and Chris Brown allegedly got into a scuffle in Las Vegas early Saturday morning.
According to the gossip site Hollywood Unlocked, Usher was jumped by Chris Brown and his crew during a birthday party for Brown that was happening at the Skate Rock City roller rink in Vegas. Although there is no footage of the dust up — yet — TMZ released a video showing the singers getting into a tense argument. According to TMZ, Brown was yelling at singer Teyana Taylor before Usher came in to defend her.
Brown and his entourage decided to leave the venue after the argument broke out; Usher allegedly followed them to the parking lot where a string of charter buses were parked at. According to TMZ, short time later Usher walked out with a “bloody nose.”
Hours before the incident happened, you can see Usher on camera celebrating Brown’s birthday (he turned 34). The singers have been friends for years now, even though they have had a friendly creative rivalry and both have talked about doing a Verzuz together.
Just a couple of weeks ago, Usher talked about it on Big Boy’s Neighborhood, saying:
“Me and Chris would kill the world if we ever did something together like that… I’m not saying it’s Verzuz, but I’mma just say this: if that ever happens it would be one of the biggest things that anybody has ever experienced in entertainment in celebration of two people who love each other.”
Interestingly enough, Usher and Brown are both set to perform at the Lovers and Friends festival in Vegas later tonight.
