Just months after the social media explosion between Keke Palmer and Usher, Chris Pratt said his wife "Got It Bad" for the Grammy Award winning artist.
According to the 'Guardians of the Galaxy' star, it was during a road trip when he found out his wife of nearly five years had a secret obsession with the R&B icon, and now knows she's one of his biggest fans.
During an interview with 'Entertainment Tonight,' the actor explained that his wife Katherine — daughter of Arnold Schwarzenegger — "knows every word" to Usher's songs and reportedly danced her heart out during his Super Bowl LVIII halftime performance.
"When Usher sang "Don't leave your girl around me" was he talking to me?" the 44-year-old wrote in his instagram caption for a post featuring Katherine, 34, dancing in front of the screen during Usher's performance in February.
Despite closely caressing Alicia Keys during his Super Bowl halftime show, Usher, 45, denies any ties to taking on the role of 'Mr. Steal Your Girl.'
"I'm not 'Mr. Steal Your Girl.' That's Trey Songz," he told 'The Breakfast Club' host Charlamagne Tha God. "I'm the guy who tells you, 'Don't leave your girl around me.' So you should come with your girl."

Keke Palmer's then-boyfriend Darius Jackson went full fire after Usher serenaded her in Sin City while holding her by the waist dressed in a sheer bodycon minidress during one of his Las Vegas residency shows.
"It's the outfit tho...you a mom.," he wrote on Twitter, now known as X. "This is my family & my representation," Jackson continued. "I have standards & morals to what I believe. I rest my case."
Per Atlanta Black Star, Jackson has since deleted his social media.
"Calling someone your wife without actually marrying them is such a joke," one fan responded, per the media outlet. "Keke, keep a baby daddy pressed, Palmer. Lol! Love it for my sis!" Another stated.
Chris Pratt seems to understands his wife's crush.
"So I guess Usher's her hall pass," he joked. "I can't blame her."
