Dave Chappelle surprised Usher during his recent concert in Washington, D.C., and a video of the hilarious moment has gone viral. Usher is currently performing on the ‘R&B Tour’ with Chris Brown, and the comedian attended Usher’s show on Friday, July 10.
Usher was in the middle of his performance at the Northwest Stadium just outside of Washington, D.C., when he saw Chappelle in the crowd. As the ‘Yeah!’ singer jumped off the stage during the ‘Nice & Slow’ part of the show, carrying a red Goyard bag, he had a perplexed expression on his face.
After he squinted, Usher exclaimed, “Is that Dave Chappelle?”
At that moment, Chappelle popped into the camera frame with a cocktail and a cigarette in tow. Judging by the look on his face, the comedian appeared to be well-served as the crowd went wild.
The two men shook hands as Usher kept performing. The artist usually hands out fake cash from the Goyard bag during the show, and after he handed a stack to Chappelle, the comedian threw some toward the backup dancers.
The video was first shared by @mynameis.foxx on Instagram.
