Usher And Justin Bieber Grammy Performance, Featuring Jaden Smith

Usher and Justin Bieber joined forces to offer a Grammy performance greatly anticipated by the nation’s tweens (…and their moms and that weird guy in accounting).

After the two performers reminisced about their first meeting (In a parking lot!) in a delightfully awkward little intro, Bieber launched into his performance. He was soon joined by Jaden Smith – one of Will Smith and Jada Pinkett-Smith‘s ubiquitous offspring – before joining Usher. That sound you heard was roughly 25,000 14-year-olds exploding in unison.

There were lights, there were karate moves, there was profuse and uncomfortable-looking perspiration… pretty much everything you could ask for in a Grammy performance. Except, perhaps, the ability to grow facial hair.

Check out the performance, via CBS:
