Usher Addresses Clone Rumors After ‘R&B’ Tour Videos Go Viral
Roomies, Usher had the internet doing a serious double take after footage from his latest ‘R&B’ Tour stop started making its rounds online.

Usher Said “Y’all Are Funny”
Usher shut down the doppelgänger chatter on Instagram after fan videos from the tour went viral. “😂 Ya’ll are funny…clone? They can’t clone this??” he wrote in comments on Instagram, before adding, “How y’all come up with this? 😂😂😂 AI ain’t that advanced,” making it clear he wasn’t buying the internet’s theory.
So, Why Did Fans Think It Was A Clone?
The speculation started after Usher performed ‘Caught Up’ and ‘Bad Girl’ in an all-white look, complete with a matching baseball hat and sunglasses. Some concertgoers said the man onstage looked different from the Usher they were used to, pointing to his facial features, movements, and even the apparent lack of tattoos on his hands. One fan claimed the real Usher has star tattoos between his thumbs and index fingers, while another joked that the performer was “gusher.” Others admitted they could see Usher but still felt something looked off, sending the viral clip into a full-blown clone debate.
You Already Know That The Internet Had A LOT To Say
Fans from all over quickly ran to X and absolutely ran it up with their theories about the viral footage. Some were convinced it was a clone, comparing zoomed-in screenshots and picking apart every detail, while others said Usher’s signature taste in hats was all the proof they needed that it was really him. Meanwhile, plenty of folks claimed this wasn’t anything new and joked that Usher has allegedly been pulling this move for years, while a few others were simply demanding their money back.
