As Angel Reese‘s stardom grows, the orbit of celebrities around her does too. The Chicago Sky’s win over the Las Vegas Aces ended in one of her most famous interactions yet, and it took a spicy turn.

Usher gives Angel Reese a special message
The “Confessions” singer greeted Sky players in the locker room after their surprise 93-85 win over the defending WNBA champions. While the cameras were rolling, he gave the warmest embrace to Chennedy Carter, who almost matched her career high with a 34-point performance. Reese recorded another double-double with 13 points and 10 rebounds.
Then, the Chi Town Barbie whipped out her phone to record a TikTok video with Usher, and the 45-year-old put on his signature charm.
“Say ‘Usher Baby,'” Reese implored him in the 8-second video, with over 100,000 likes on TikTok.
“Angel Baby,” he leaned in and said with a grin, making the rookie superstar blush and end the video. Fans of both popular figures went crazy in the comments.

“Angel is living her best life right now lol,” said one popular comment, while another cried out to Usher, “he can’t keep getting away with this.”
“I would have melted too sis,” assured one of her legion of fans, also known as Reese’s Pieces.
Reese has already made a number of friends in the music industry, hanging out with the likes of Megan Thee Stallion, Cardi B, Latto, GloRilla and G Herbo. Usher, who recently completed a 100-day residency and a Super Bowl Halftime Show in Las Vegas, added his name to the list when the Sky took on the Aces in Sin City.
Next up for Reese is the WNBA All-Star Game, when she will team up with rookie rival Caitlin Clark as the WNBA All-Stars take on the USA Olympic Basketball team in a compelling new format on Saturday, July 20.
