This Valentine’s Day surprise made our hearts melt.
Usher popped up on his “favorite auntie,” Anita Baker, during her performance at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta to carry out a thoughtful gesture. As she sang her 1986 classic hit "Same Ole Love (365 Days a Year)," Usher, dressed in a red top and black pants, approached her on one knee and gifted the legendary songstress a bouquet of red roses.
The crowd went wild as the R&B crooner stepped on stage and presented the flowers to the legendary songstress. Watch the touching clip below:
When Anita Baker received the beautiful bouquet from her "nephew," Usher, on stage, she couldn't help but gush about him to the fans. "My nephew never fails," she exclaimed before handing the microphone to him. The singer then delighted the audience by belting out a few lines from Anita’s hit song. Watch below:
