Swizz Beatz Reacts To Alicia Keys & Usher Viral Moment At Super Bowl

Author Autumn Hawkins

Swizz Beatz has responded to the onstage embrace between his wife Alicia Keys and Usher at the Super Bowl Halftime show. Keys joined Usher on stage Sunday (Feb. 11) as sang a snippet of “If I Ain’t Got You” and then performed their hit duet “My Boo.” As Keys got up from the piano and sang their song together Usher embraced Keys from behind where she was seen smiling and laughing. Keys is married to producer Swizz Beatz and while the internet seemed to make this viral moment negative, he just brushed it off.

“Y’all talking about the wrong d— thing !!! y’all don’t see that amazing dress covering the entire stadium,” Swizz Beatz wrote on Instagram with photos of his wife’s performance. “Tonight’s performance was nothing but amazing with 2 amazing Giants ! Congrats @usher and my love @aliciakeys that song is a classic. We don’t do negative vibes on this side we make history.”

“It’s wrong to hold someone’s wife life this. I don’t care if Swiss Beatz is okay with it,” another fan
