Crews 
Usher has many reasons to celebrate! and the latest one came on Tuesday.
It was revealed that the R&B King scored a major win with his Super Bowl LVIII halftime performance. The first-ever 15-minute set was the most-watched ever—averaging 129.3 million viewers. His halftime show even bested the ratings for the actual game itself.
The longest Super Bowl game also will go down as the most-watched program in television history.
According to Nielsen and Adobe Analytics, the Kansas City Chiefs‘ 25-22 overtime victory versus the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday averaged 123.7 million viewers across television and streaming platforms. That shattered last year’s mark of 115.1 million for Kansas City’s last-play victory over the Philadelphia Eagles with a 7% increase.
Nielsen updated its numbers Tuesday after releasing an early figure of 123.4 million on Monday night.
Nielsen also said a record 202.4 million watched at least part of the game across all networks, a 10% jump over last year’s figure of 183.6 million.
