Usher Picks Metallica To Headline Super Bowl LX Halftime Show

Usher wants to rock out for the next Super Bowl Halftime Show — to the classic metal sounds of Metallica!!!

TMZ Hip Hop caught up with Mr. Raymond, gearing up for NYFW at CBS Studios this week, taking flicks, kissing babies, and the full A-list meet-and-greet.

Usher was happy to plug his son Naviyd‘s TikTok account … the high schooler is blossoming into quite the artist/social media influencer in his own right!!!

The music legend has one of the most celebrated Super Bowl halftime extravaganzas of all-time and we just had to know who he wants to see come next February … the “Masters of Puppets” better keep their guitars tuned up!!!

Metallica may have come out of left field from the R&B maestro’s mouth, but Super Bowl LX will be held in California, not too far from James Hetfield‘s L.A. hometown.
