Usher denies a heated Oscars afterparty dispute with Justin Bieber, calling TMZ’s report exaggerated and affirming mutual respect despite past tensions over a Super Bowl show invitation.

  • Usher denied reports of a "heated exchange" with Justin Bieber at a recent Oscars party, calling the alleged tense standoff an "exaggeration of the conversation."
  • Last week, TMZ reported the "Baby" singer, 32, and his former mentor, 47, got into a "heated exchange" after Usher went up to Bieber at the star-studded bash angrily.
  • Rapper Da Brat, who spoke directly with Usher, clarified that the two "definitely love each other" and have no hostility toward one another.
  • Da Brat emphasized Usher has remained supportive of Bieber for years, warning that "people just take stuff out of context when they see something and they run with it."
  • Their mentorship history dates back years, with Usher once describing Bieber as "like a child" to him, while Bieber has reflected on "letting go of resentment" regarding past industry pressures.
