The Usher fan who was kicked offstage after she got visibly uncomfortable over his seductive dance moves has spoken out.
Gabrielle Cheyenne wrote in a Facebook post that Usher’s team moved her and her mom, Tia Byrd, to the VIP section before she was brought onstage at the singer’s Nashville, Tennessee, concert last Friday.
“First off NOBODY is declining to go on stage,” she wrote. “I looked good asf, you thought I wasn’t gonna let THOUSANDS of people see me?? On the big screen, where you bitches will never be????”
“Y’all wanted me to get up there and f–k him atp ??” Cheyenne said. “CHATT FOLKS AREN’T USED TO ANYTHING. That’s the most exciting thing that would’ve happened in y’all little ass lives !! F–k yall, DISRESPECTFULLY.”
Cheyenne continued to defend herself on her Instagram Stories, insisting her attitude toward Usher, 47, wasn’t “nasty.”
“Y’all aren’t gonna get on the internet calling me out my name and disrespecting me and expect me to keep it cool!” she wrote, adding, “Don’t think that yall are gonna bully me about an experience that yall didn’t get!”
Cheyenne discussed the debacle more in an interview with Chris Brown’s backup dancer Lance Savali, clarifying that she has “no bad blood” toward Usher.
“I don’t feel a way toward him,” she said. “It’s just, I got onstage.”
Additionally, Cheyenne said she wasn’t intimidated by the crowd because she was so distracted by the “Yeah!” singer onstage.
“You’re not paying attention to that. Usher is right in front of me. That’s what I’m looking at,” she shared. “Everything else is drowned out.”
Additionally, Cheyenne’s mom spoke out about the debacle on Facebook, sharing a photo of Cheyenne with Usher’s wife, Jennifer Goicoechea, at the concert.
“Usher’s WIFE & Gabrielle Cheyenne AFTER THE STAGE APPEARANCE YA’LL SHE AIN’T MAD SO Y TF YA’LL MAD,” Byrd wrote.
Eventually, Usher stepped away from Cheyenne and waved his hand backward toward the stage in a signal to bring her off.
