No, Usher is not dead, despite his name trending heavily on social media today. Rather, he is currently alive and well, with the Dallas-born singer/dancer surely preparing for his major performance at this year’s upcoming Super Bowl. So if Usher isn’t the talk of the town on social media right now due to an unexpected death, then why exactly is he trending?

The truth of the matter is, Usher is currently trending and experiencing an uptick in search due to two opposite reasons. For one, Usher recently indulged in anime cosplay, with a recent remix that has reached millions of views. On the other end, Usher recently shared a controversial Israel post that has angered a fair amount of people.

So while Usher hasn’t passed, it’s clear that he remains heavily discussed in modern-day society for a variety of different reasons — and he’ll surely gain more popularity in the aftermath of the Super Bowl halftime special.
