Usher picks up Las Vegas marriage license before Super Bowl halftime performance

Are wedding bells in store for Usher and his boo?

The musician took a break from prepping for his 2024 Super Bowl halftime show earlier this week to pick up a marriage license in Las Vegas. The eight-time Grammy Award-winner and his longtime girlfriend, Jennifer Goicoechea, obtained the license on Thursday in Clark County, Nevada, according to court records acquired by PEOPLE. Las Vegas is located in Clark County.

The performer kept his left hand covered with a glove throughout his high-energy halftime show, which featured special guest artists like Alicia Keys, H.E.R., will.i.am, Jermaine Dupri, Lil Jon, and Ludacris. As of Sunday night, no marriage certificate has been filed with the court.

Usher, 45, and Goicoechea’s marriage license dropped one day before the release of the R&B/pop star’s 9th studio album, Coming Home, which he told EW reflects his journey from being a married man to a single man.

“The idea of that journey felt like me finally coming back home to this place that I'm very comfortable to just share and know I'm being vulnerable in. I'm ready,” he said.

Usher, born Usher Raymond IV, sparked rumors in 2019 that he was dating Goicoechea, a music executive. The pair have two children together: daughter Sovereign Bo, born in 2020, and son Sire Castrello, born in 2021. Usher shares two children—15-year-old Usher Raymond V and 14-year-old Naviyd Eli—with his first wife Tameka Foster, whom he divorced in 2009. He and his second wife, Grace Miguel, divorced in 2018 after three years of marriage.

Las Vegas has been the site of several milestones for Usher. In addition to his Super Bowl 2024 halftime show and his potential nuptials, the singer wrapped his My Way Las Vegas residency in December.
