Bolt ran 19.79 seconds at the Bislett Stadium, breaking Frankie Fredericks’ 17-year-old record by three hundredths of a second and posting the fastest time in the world this year.
He drove around the track in a racing car before last night’s competition and performed a DJ set at an after-party, where he tweeted: 'You know what time it is...Dj Bolt'.
Still go it: Usain Bolt blasted away from the field to win in a time of 19.79, a meeting record
Reaching for the line: Bolt will be happy to make up for his defeat at the hands of Justin Gatlin last time out
'That would have been a 19.5-second run in better weather,' said Bolt.
'I'm not worried about losing one race. When it comes to the championships, I show up every year and get it done. My confidence is always high.
'I’m going to show the world I’m the No 1 and I’m the legend that I am.'
The Bolt show now moves to Jamaica’s National Senior Trials in Kingston next week, where the 26-year-old must finish in the top three to guarantee his place in the 100m at the World Championships in August.
Speedster: Bolt was introduced to the crowd in a Formula E car before the meeting got underway
Stretching himself: He did a couple of laps of the track, a bit further than he normally runs
Super cool: Would any other sportsman get away with something like this?
Multi-talented: Usain Bolt at the after party in Oslo giving it a go as a DJ
