The Usher fan who was kicked off stage after she got visibly uncomfortable over his seductive dance moves has spoken out.
Gabrielle Cheyenne wrote in a Facebook post that Usher’s team moved her and her mom, Tia Byrd, to the VIP section before she was brought on stage at the singer’s Nashville concert last Friday.
“First off NOBODY is declining to go on stage,” she wrote. “I looked good asf, you thought I wasn’t gonna let THOUSANDS of people see me?? On the big screen, where you bitches will never be????”
Cheyenne continued, “My mom and I had FLOOR SEATS. Their team approached us and moved us to VIP before the show even started !! PRETTY PRIVILEGES something you hoes will never know about!!”
The fan also claimed Usher’s team didn’t tell her what she was being brought on stage for.
“Y’all wanted me to get up there and f–k him atp ??” Cheyenne said. “CHATT FOLKS AREN’T USED TO ANYTHING. That’s the most exciting thing that would’ve happened in y’all little ass lives !! F–k yall, DISRESPECTFULLY.”
Cheyenne continued to defend herself on her Instagram Stories, insisting her attitude toward Usher, 47, wasn’t “nasty.”
“Y’all aren’t gonna get on the internet calling me out my name and disrespecting me and expect me to keep it cool!” she wrote, adding, “Don’t think that yall are gonna bully me about an experience that yall didn’t get!”
Cheyenne discussed the debacle more in an interview with Chris Brown’s backup dancer Lance Savali, clarifying that she has “no bad blood” toward Usher.
“I don’t feel a way towards him,” she said. “It’s just, I got on stage.”
Additionally, Cheyenne said she wasn’t intimidated by the crowd because she was so distracted by the “Yeah!” singer on stage.
“You’re not paying attention to that. Usher is right in front of me. That’s what I’m looking at,” she shared. “Everything else is drowned out.”
Additionally, Cheyenne’s mom spoke out about the debacle on Facebook, sharing a photo of Cheyenne with Usher’s wife, Jennifer Goicoechea, at the concert.
“Usher’s WIFE & Gabrielle Cheyenne AFTER THE STAGE APPEARANCE YA’LL SHE AIN’T MAD SO Y TF YA’LL MAD,” Byrd wrote.
In the viral moment from Usher’s concert, Cheyenne looked painfully uncomfortable when Usher sang to her and tried to get her to recline on the on stage bed.
“I don’t think she want to be on the stage, huh?” he asked the audience.
Eventually, Usher stepped away from Cheyenne and waved his hand backwards toward the stage in a signal to bring her off.
Meanwhile, some of the audience booed during the awkward moment.
Usher is currently on his R&B Tour with Chris Brown that kicked off on June 26.
Their next show is on Tuesday in Birmingham, Alabama.
