Usher's 10-Night London Residency

Usher has kicked off his 10-night residency at London's O2 Arena, performing a slick two-hour show with multiple costume changes and choreography. The US pop star played over 40 songs, including hits like Yeah, Burn, U Remind Me, and OMG.

The show, titled 'Past, Present, Future', is billed as an 'intimate' look at Usher Raymond IV's 30-year career, as well as 'a glimpse into the future'. With 10 sold-out shows at the O2, Usher joins an elite group of artists who have played double-digit residencies at the venue.

The elaborate show included a huge video wall, multiple costume changes, and even a 15-minute roller skating section. Usher's choreography was a constant highlight, with effortless moves that looked unrehearsed. However, the show was not without its mishaps, including a handful of on-stage stumbles and missed musical cues.

Despite these issues, Usher's magnetic stage presence held the concert together. The singer showered the crowd with fake 'Usher bucks' and even stopped to pose for a selfie with two fans in the VIP section. The show's momentum was frequently torpedoed by waffly, overlong video interludes, but Usher's performance ultimately won over the audience.
