Usher has finally responded to all the drama surrounding that Keke Palmer video.
It all started when the 29-year-old actress attended his concert in Las Vegas where she was seen dancing and embracing the 44-year-old as he serenaded her with his iconic song 'There Goes My Baby.'
In a video posted to Twitter by @RNB_Radar, the star can be seen wearing a risqué mesh black dress with a strapless bodysuit underneath as she twirls around in front of the musician as he welcomed her vibe.
However, the interaction clearly didn't sit well with Palmer's boyfriend Darius Jackson, who is also the father of her son Leo and prompted him to take to special media to publicly shame his partner.
In a now-deleted tweet, he reposted the video alongside the shady caption: "It’s the outfit tho... you a mom."
Okay and?
Despite being slammed for the statement, the fitness instructor doubled down on his point by following up with another "controversial" tweet, saying: "We live in a generation where a man of the family doesn’t want the wife & mother to his kids to showcase booty cheeks to please others & he gets told how much of a hater he is."
"This is my family & my representation. I have standards & morals to what I believe. I rest my case," he added.
This tweet has also now been deleted from his account.
In response, the Hustler star took to Instagram after the incident showing off her outfit with a caption that seemingly hinted at the comments.
"I wish I had taken more pictures but we were running late! I am telling y’all right now, if you haven’t seen @usher YOU MUST GO!! HE WAS SO FABULOUS!! Giving theater, Atlanta downnn, tips and tricks and just absolutely iconic."
"I was truly inspired as a performer. I whooped some a** in spades too! Where is that pic of us all together with the King himself??" she added.
Though he didn't directly address the situation at the time, Usher commented on the post supporting the Nickelodeon alum, writing: "The Big Boss!! Thank U for coming!"
However, just a month on and the star has spoken out about the fallout during a new interview with PEOPLE.
Describing it as a "pop moment... worth talking about", he said: "I think everybody's vision or a version of what they felt happened there just leads you back to just really having a good time in Las Vegas. And that's what I hope came out of it. Rather, it was a conversation of what was going on with us having fun in front of the audience or conversation about that song."
"Every night I'm thinking about how the world now is going to react to this moment that I'll have with whoever I'm choosing to sing to," he continued. "But it was a pop moment, and it was fun to have at least conversation going and we just keep it light. I don't see anything negative happening in Las Vegas."
He's even joked about embracing the nickname given to him by fans after the situation, calling him a "domestic terrorist."
"The internet is crazy. You can't beat the internet," he added.
