As fans screamed and dancers surrounded him, viewers at home could barely hear the singer.
At the very beginning of his performance, the sound from the hitmaker's microphone cut in and out.
The giant microphone, that stretched across his face and covered half of his mouth, just wasn't cutting it.
It wasn't until Usher brought out another major star, Alicia Keys, that the sound finally stabilized.
He also brought out his friend Ludacris to perform their hit song Yeah!
Halfway through the performance, it seemed that the sound team switched out his microphone.
He was soon standing in front of a typical microphone and mic stand that would be seen at most concerts.
Not long after that, Usher appeared with another microphone attached to his face so he could freely dance - and rollerskate - around the stage.
