Usher was accused of using fake at a strip club, but it was quickly debunked.
It seems that even those with all the money in the world can still be conservative when it comes to how they spend it. During 2021 visit to a strip club, Usher reportedly made it rain fake cash that was printed with his face on it.
Dancers weren’t immediately aware that the money was fake, but after the club closed, one performer posted images of the money to social media, slamming Usher for effectively not paying for the services rendered.
Fans quickly linked the fake money to Usher, something that was pieced together via a promotional shoot the performer did for his new Las Vegas residency. Regardless of if throwing the fake cash was also a promotional stunt or not, the post made it seem like the singer didn’t tip any of the dancers any real money, causing some serious clap back online.
However, it was subsequentlyconfirmedthat Usher did indeed pay the dancers at the club thousands in real cash. A representative for the club Usher attended confirmed that the artist actually spent thousands on both bottle service and tips for dancers. They further cleared up the fake money rumor, saying that the bills were thrown around the club as part of a promotion for Usher’s new residency.
