Usher Gets Roasted By Sons On Instagram
In the new Instagram series called ‘Carversations,’ Usher was joined by his sons Cinco, 18, and Naviyd, 17, to discuss growing up in today’s digital world. The first episode, shared to Instagram’s official YouTube page on Thursday, shows Usher and his sons driving down a tree-lined street and discussing social media. From sharing who they’d want to DM, to his sons seemingly avoiding the Close Friends topic, fans were definitely losing it. At one point, Usher asks Naviyd why the star hasn’t been added to his son’s Close Friends. However, the teen mocked his dad in classic teen style: “I’m not one of your little friends,” he said, fingers in air quotes.
Usher Tries To Make His Sons Add Him Back
The conversation gets even funnier when Usher asks Cinco about his Close Friends list. The teen reveals he doesn’t even have one, leading to a back-and-forth about people “wildin’” in their Close Friends. Usher joked that he doesn’t “be wildin’ in my Close Friends,” leaving his sons stunned. Best believe, they immediately asked if he even has a Close Friends list. Usher laughs it off but eventually tries to broker a deal: each of them needs to be on the other’s Close Friends list moving forward. Let’s just say it was a humbling reminder that even a global superstar gets checked at home—hit records, designer fits, and all.
Fans Think ‘U Got It Bad’ If You’re Not On His Close Friends
Fans flooded The Shade Room comment section after watching Usher’s carversation with his sons. Many pointed out that the superstar and his teens are basically the same person in different fonts. Others found it humbling to see that even Usher isn’t “cool” at home. While some commenters were slightly desperate to know how to make it onto Usher’s Close Friends list.
