Usher Reflects On His Career As Las Vegas Residency Ends

Usher reflected on his career on Twitter, earlier this week, following the end of his Las Vegas residency. When one fan resurfaced a clip of him once discussing the idea of eventually doing a residency in the city with Trevor Nelson in 2004, he told fans to look at how far he’s come.

In the clip, Nelson asks him to promise never to do a Las Vegas residency. “I can’t promise that,” Usher responds. “You know what, because I am such a theatrical artist, I would love to be in a space– If I did decide to go to Las Vegas, it would be the most phenomenal thing you’ve ever seen in your life.” Replying to the clip on Twitter, Usher wrote: “I saw it then…look at me now.”
