Singer Usher will be in good company during the NBA all-star game. It has just been confirmed that Shakira and Alicia Keys will perform during half-time. Usher will perform during the player introductions before the basketball game begins.
Broadcast live from Arlington, Texas on February 14, the all-star game will have to compete for attention with the Olympic Games as well as Valentine’s Day.
Usher will sing Yeah! and More, a new song that is being used to promote the event.
According to sources, Shakira and Alicia Keys will perform together and also have the chance to sing their own songs.
The two singers’ performance is likely to be more animated than their appearance at the Hope For Haiti Now telethon where they sang in a more subdued way out of respect for the many earthquake victims.
