Gabrielle Cheyenne has finally explained her side of the viral Usher concert drama.
And apparently, there was one tiny problem: she was not there for Usher.
Cheyenne went viral after Usher brought her on stage during one of his concerts for a steamy serenade. The moment was supposed to be romantic, exciting and to have the crowd screaming.
Instead, Cheyenne looked less than impressed.

Usher noticed her reaction and eventually kicked her out of the stage. And just like that, a concert moment became an internet investigation.
Gabrielle joined us on “TMZ Live” Monday and we asked her why she wasn’t feeling Usher.
Usher and Chris are touring together, and Gabrielle says she’s more loyal to Breezy than Ush … so much so, her reaction would have been way different if it was Chris who called her up on stage.
Instead, it was Usher … and Gabrielle says she wouldn’t have accepted an upgrade to the VIP section if she was told from the jump that Usher was going to call on her.
Gabrielle also clapped back at folks who have a lot to say about her onstage demeanor … saying women in her Chattanooga hometown have a “crab in a bucket” mentality and go
“ballistic” when someone gets to experience something they didn’t.
For now, though, the viral moment remains a funny reminder that not every fan is waiting for the same superstar.
After Gabrielle Cheyenne’s on-stage moment with Usher went viral, she and her family pushed back against claims that she was uncomfortable or uninterested.

Usher may have wanted to create a romantic concert memory. Cheyenne apparently wanted Chris Brown.
And in the end, everybody got a story to tell.
