Mario Lopez is on the receiving end of backlash after taking his teenage daughter to Usher and Chris Brown's famously X-rated R&B Tour.
The 52-year-old Saved by the Bell alum, who is mourning the loss of co-star Dennis Haskins – accompanied Gia, 16, to the singers' recent Los Angeles concert for a 'dad-daughter date night.'
He shared footage on Instagram of a bonding moment between him and his firstborn child as Usher, 47, crooned his 1997 hit Nice & Slow.
Lopez, who hosts the radio show ON with wife Courtney Lopez, captioned: 'Dad-daughter date night, round 2: Usher & Chris Brown! Had a blast with my Gigi… even if I embarrassed her a little.'
Fans took to the comments to express shock, with one writing, 'Ain't no way I'd be singing that song with my daddy on my arm,' adding, 'Glad y'all had fun.'
Another added, 'You're brave because most of that concert is X-rated, lol.'
The Daily Mail has reached out to reps for Lopez for comment.

Someone else joined the comments to share that she also took her 16-year-old child to the risqué performance.
'Now Mario, I took my 16yr old son and was directly in front of Usher's section and umm, my son saw everything but a t*t and a cl*t, so how y'all do?' the person hilariously asked.
Lopez replied, 'Oh, I know exactly how you felt,' and added a crying laughing emoji.
There was also a follower who added there were 'definitely some parts that you had to cover her eyes.'
Another person simply said, 'Idk with all that humping.'
A different social media user weighed in, 'I wouldn't want to go to a Chris Brown concert with my dad, but that's just me. lol just because of the songs and stuff.'

'Those memories with you will be what she will tell her future children.'
Another added, 'We need more Mario dads in this world. The kind who show up, stay present.'

Lopez shares Gia, as well as sons Dominic, 13, and Santino, seven, with Courtney, whom he wed nearly 14 years ago.
Gia, who was two-years-old at the time, was the flower girl.
Before venturing to the controversial concert, the family enjoyed a getaway in Costa Rica.
Lopez previously shared photos with the high schooler on Instagram and captioned: 'Got back from Costa Rica just in time for “Yee Haw Boots & Bows” with my favorite cowgirl…
'Later tonight, dad-daughter date round 2: Usher & Chris Brown! Gia may regret giving me two chances to embarrass her in one weekend… #DadDaughterDate #BootsAndBows.'
Earlier this month, as Gia celebrated her birthday, Lopez paid tribute to her on social media as he effused in an Instagram caption: 'Happy Sweet 16 to my beautiful Gigi!
'Watching you grow into the smart, kind, funny & strong young woman you are has been one of my greatest blessings. I couldn’t be prouder of you mija. You’ll always be Daddy’s little girl… even if you’re officially old enough to drive away from me now.'
