In the ongoing celebration of the 25th anniversary of the release of his chart-topping 1997 album,My Way, the R&B crooner recreated the shirtless cover art for his single to “Nice and Slow,” posing with his iconic “U” chain.

His picture had fans online experiencing déjà vu, many shouting out how unchanged Usher has looked in the decades later.

USHER Vegas show

During an appearance on thePeople Every Daypodcast, Usher opened up aboutwhy he decided to extendit and what he loves most about Las Vegas living.

“Having an audience come to you is always great. I love the fact that I’ve been able to really celebrate all of the years of my music and see a very mixed, eclectic crowd of people. But I think more than anything, the fact that it fits my lifestyle,” he said.

He added, “I’ve been able to still focus on the things that I love, that are creative, that are kind of ancillary to what I do in music. Whether it’s in film or rather in production or working with other artists and still have family time, but yet still do what I love, which is performing.”
