Monica Herrera of '' Billboard '' said Usher 's " star power is clearly rubbing off on the 16-year-old " , commenting that Bieber " shows off his smoothest moves yet " and " tackles his toughest choreography . " Jocelyn Vena of '' MTV News '' commented , " While Bieber had previously teased his dancing skills in the " Baby " video , he really channeled Usher 's smooth moves in this newest clip . " Tamar Antai also of MTV said , " Usher does most of the heavy lifting where dancing is concerned , and Justin Bieber , who 's more of a singer than a dancer , is in no danger of upstaging Usher on the dance floor . " Antai compared Bieber 's moves to Usher in his " Caught Up " video , commenting " it 's nice to see Justin expanding the scope of talents to include pelvic thrusts , Matrix-style slo-mo leans " and , " it 's also nice to see Justin looking a little more mature and sophisticated in a hoodie and leather jacket .... and his videos are growing up with him , as this is his flashiest , most grandiose video yet . Antai also commented on the appeal of the video , commending Meyers , " who put that classic early ' 00s-style big-money polish on the piece – for employing fire , shirtless dudes , white ninjas ...
