Angel Reese would have never dreamt of her rookie season ending the way it did, an unexpected season-ending wrist injury. Although she felt gutted, the rookie displayed a strong spirit by expressing her determination to return stronger than ever next year. While she is recovering now, Reese is making the most of her off-season. Her adventures have been making waves on social media, thanks to her frequent updates on Instagram. Just yesterday afternoon, she was cheering for the Los Angeles Rams at an NFL game, but it looks like she had even bigger plans for the night.
In her latest Instagram story, Reese shared a glimpse of legendary singer Usher’s concert, capturing the electrifying atmosphere and her excitement for the performance. The renowned singer had a concert lined up last night at the Intuit Dome, an event he announced on his X account. What’s particularly intriguing is that Angel Reese chose to attend the concert even as Usher was generating buzz for an unusual reason—his tweets had mysteriously vanished from X.
While fans have been speculating about the reasons behind this unusual move, Usher eventually stepped in to clarify the situation. The pop music star tweeted on X, “Account got hacked and damn y’all ran with it! 😂😂😂 See you tonight at Intuit Dome ✌🏾👀✌🏾.”
