On September 5, 2026, R&B superstar Usher provided an unforgettable experience for actress Taraji P. Henson during his concert at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. Usher brought the 'Empire' star onstage and delivered a passionate rendition of his 2004 hit, "Can U Handle It?"

The public display quickly became a talking point on social media, with fans humorously referencing Henson's past roles and praising her vibrant, cropped hairstyle.
