Celeb perks: Election officials escort Usher to front of voting line
His latest single is called “Scream,” and it sounds as if that’s just what voters wanted to do when Georgia election officials allowed Usher to skip the long lines on Election Day.
The 34-year-old chart-topper was allowed to say sayonara to the wait at the polls on Tuesday as he was ushered to the front of the line.
One voter told the station that he was in line for 45 minutes when he saw the star making his way to the front through a back door. “I take the voting process very seriously, and I was just taken aback that this was allowed to happen,” the voter, Alan Christian, said.
The singer posted a series of photos of himself on Twitter showing him making his way to the ballot box on Tuesday. Clad in a red, white and blue jacket and sporting red sneakers, Usher is seen posing solo for a snapshot while holding an umbrella. A message accompanying the photo said, “I did ... Did you?”
