Chicago "Ushers" In It's Newest Star




FIVE-TIME GRAMMY AWARD WINNER USHER will join the cast of the hit Broadway musical Chicago on August 22nd starring as Billy Flynn, the role played by Richard Gere in the Oscar-winning movie. Usher will continue in the show until October 1st. The 27-year-old superstar whose last album, Confessions, sold over 15 million albums worldwide will be making his Broadway debut in the long-running, smash-hit musical.

I think this is a much better suit for Ursher, Intelligentsia. His dance moves are far better than his perceived acting chops, so this move to the Chicago stage is a great look. Especially after that brick of a film In the Mix he starred in last year. That shit played like a cheesy-ass after school special. So congrats to Mr. Confessions for finding the right groove.

Stay tuned, Intelligentsia . . .
