Usher serenaded Kim Kardashian during his latest show in Las Vegas.

Usher serenaded Kim Kardashian during his show in Las Vegas on Saturday night. The performance comes months after Kardashian had to cancel a trip to see the legendary singer perform for her birthday. For the event, Kardashian watched on from the VIP section. She sat with her childhood friend, Allison Statter, hairstylist Chris Appleton and his partner, Lukas Gage.

“C’mon, Kim,” Usher said to the 42-year-old. Kardashian shared several videos of her and her friends singing along to “Confessions” and “My Boo" on her Instagram Story. “Finally made it to see @usher but my girls are mad they aren’t here soooo I just have to come back with them ASAP,” she wrote in one post.

Kardashian's original trip out to see Usher was canceled as her private plane ride to Vegas was unable to fly due to high winds. “The plane couldn’t land due to the wind so looks like our Carbone party and @usher concert isn’t happening and we are heading back home,” Kardashian explained at the time. She ended up celebrating with her friends at an In-N-Out Burger.

Usher's latest Las Vegas residency has been a star-studded affair in recent days. Yung Miami, 21 Savage, Teyana Taylor, and more have made appearances. Ahead of his latest stint in Sin City, Usher spoke with BET about his love for performing in front of his fans and giving memorable shows. “That’s because of the time and passion I put into the art,” he said. “The art is the show, the music is the offering, right? Because everybody’s going to interpret what I’m saying maybe a different way because of their experience or what they feel. But the art of it and the time where I get a chance to give something to people that they’ll remember forever is in that moment. So that’s what I love about performing live for my fans.”
