How does the payment compare to a traditional live concert tour performance?
Usher certainly wasn't alone onstage during his Super Bowl halftime performance Sunday. One after another, big-name celebrities graced the massive stage alongside him, but if you didn't catch them all, we're here to help.
Here's lineup of performers to join Usher on the Super Bowl stage:
First up was Alicia Keys performing on a sparkling red baby grand piano to sing their duet, "My Boo."
Next, was H.E.R. walking out playing a solo on an electric guitar with backup dancers and singers on roller skates while a shirtless Usher had a costume change, in which he, too, glided around the stage in skates.
Her appearance, however, inspired confused reactions from viewers on social media who mistook 26-year-old R&B artist for North West, the 10-year-old daughter of Kim Kardashian and ex-husband Kanye West.
Will.i.am joined in for an "OMG" collab as he reunited with Usher onstage in a notable moment.
Another guest appearance came as Jermaine Dupri made a surprise performane hyping up the crowd between songs as Usher prepared for "Confessions" and "Burn."

Then the crowd went wild when Lil Jon appeared on stage singing a snippet of his "Turn Down for What" before Usher began to perform one of his biggest hits, "Yeah!" filling the stadium speakers.
Ludacris and will.i.am then joined the stage with Usher and Lil John to finish out the song as the R&B star danced amid a bedazzled crowd to close the show.
Usher spoke about what it meant to him to be in the Super Bowl halftime show, which he labeled as "One performance. 30 years in the making."
