Justin Bieber sent a heartfelt congrats to his longtime pal and early supporter Usher after the singer brought down the house during his electrifying Super Bowl LVIII halftime show on Sunday. The all-caps Instagram post featured an iconic image of Usher in his blue and black glittery stage attire at the end of the performance with the message, “LOVE YOU MY BROTHER. NOONE CAN SING AND DANCE THE WAY YOU DO. LOVE YOU FROM THE DEPTHS OF MY HEART.”

Bieber also praised the Atlanta singer for staying true to his roots. “BROUGHT THE “A” TO THE WORLD, ONLY YOU BABYYYYYY 😘”

Bieber wasn’t the only one who was blown away by Usher’s set, which included guest spots from Alicia Keys, H.E.R., Will.i.am, Jermaine Dupri, Lil Jon and Ludacris. Chrissy Teigen was also super into the glitzy throwdown at Las Vegas’ Allegiant Stadium in the middle of the game between the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers, which ended as overtime ended with KC’s third championship in five years.

“I always love halftime. I never ever hate on halftime,” Teigen captioned an Instagram post in which she shared a series of video of her dancing to the medley of Ush’s hits, including a cute one in which she grooved along with her eight-month-old son, Wren Alexander. “It’s such a big deal and the pressure is so insane, the timing is so bananas. It’s all just so much and I’m so proud of anyone who does this show. But man, when you know all the songs.”
