Watch Teyana Taylor Kill Her ‘Bad Girl’ Performance With Usher (Video)
Teyana Taylor dreamed of performing with Usher when she was just a teenager, and now at 25 years-old she finally got to fulfill that fantasy.
The “Fade” superstar joined Usher on stage during his performance of “Bad Girl” at the Hot for the Holidays concert in Newark, N.J., on Saturday — and killed it.
Usher’s “Bad Girl” performance gained popularity in 2005 during his “Live From Puerto Rico” concert special where he was joined on stage by a dancing Beyoncé. It was one of the most legendary performances of the time and Taylor got to embody Queen Bey for a few minutes, which clearly made her day.

“Truly a dream come true! To be able to hit the stage with not only a genuine friend but a legend I respect soooo much and has truly learned a lot from,” wrote the “Madea’s Big Happy Family” star in an Instagram post. “Y’all don’t understand Usher live in Puerto Rico march 5th 2005 I was 14 or 15 dancing around the house to this SAME song like I was Beyoncé u couldn’t tell me nothing!!!”
The 25-year-old quickly rose to the spotlight back in August when she starred in Kanye West’s “Fade” where she’s shown dancing in a gym and ends up eventually making out with NBA-star fiancé Iman Shumpert in the shower. And in the last few seconds of the video, she turns into a cat-faced humanoid.
