Usher’s Parisian Affair: A Must-See Moment
Filmed during an unforgettable eight-show run at La Seine Musicale during Paris Fashion Week 2023, Usher: Rendezvous in Paris is no ordinary concert film. It’s a sensual, high-energy spectacle that distills the essence of Usher’s sold-out Las Vegas residencies and infuses it with the enchanting allure of Paris. Think of it as a love letter to both his fans and the City of Light.
Set to the rhythm of his biggest hits like "Yeah!," "My Boo," and "Love in This Club," the film captures Usher at his peak—a celebration of his 30-year career complete with jaw-dropping fashion, state-of-the-art special effects, and choreography that will leave you breathless. The Paris shows became a convergence of music, fashion, and art, with Usher blending his signature style with Parisian flair. The result? A spectacle you absolutely cannot miss, whether you’re a long-time fan or new to the party.
The Global Cinematic Rollout
This isn't just a local affair. With Rendezvous in Paris, Usher is going global, and you’re invited. The film will screen in 2,000 cinemas worldwide, including 1,000 locations in the U.S., from AMC and ODEON to indie theatres alike. From September 12 to 15, fans everywhere will be able to experience the magic of Usher live on screen—without ever leaving their hometown.
Behind the Music, Behind the Man
But Rendezvous in Paris isn’t just a concert film; it’s an intimate look into the life of one of music’s most celebrated performers. For those who couldn't make it to the Paris shows, this is your chance to experience the spectacle through Usher's lens—backstage access, up-close-and-personal moments, and insight into the creative genius that’s kept him at the top of the game for three decades.
A Visionary Team Bringing Usher’s Dream to Life
The film is a work of art in its own right, directed by renowned filmmaker Anthony Mandler, known for his collaborations with everyone from Beyoncé to Jay-Z. Produced by Mandler alongside Usher and Ron Laffitte, Rendezvous in Paris is a production of Arcovision, Kingdom Films, and Laffitte Group Productions, backed by a dream team of executive producers including Aakomon Jones, Angelo Gopee, and Krista Wegener. If anyone can translate the electric energy of a live Usher concert into a cinematic experience, it’s this powerhouse team.
A Career Like No Other
Usher has always been more than just a pop star. With over 80 million records sold worldwide, eight GRAMMY Awards, and countless other accolades, he’s an artist who redefines what it means to be an entertainer. Whether it’s his unforgettable Super Bowl LVIII halftime show or his philanthropic work through the New Look Foundation, Usher’s influence is undeniable. As a Global Citizen Ambassador, he’s taken his talents from the concert stage to world stages, performing for causes that aim to defeat poverty and promote equity.
Now, on the cusp of his 30th anniversary in the entertainment industry, Usher is not just looking back—he’s launching forward. With a new album, Coming Home, on the horizon and his Super Bowl performance still echoing in our collective memory, Rendezvous in Paris is the perfect prelude to what promises to be another monumental chapter in his storied career.
