"I guess there ain't really any competition between me and Justin no more, right?" he said as he picked up his second award of the night for best dance video. >>>>>


Why does Usher think he's better than JT, at least JT has touched an instrument. Unless you are Prince or a small handful of other artist you don't speak like that. What an idiot, was he the only one who didn't see his hideous performance that opened the show? Damn, 2 or 3 trendy pop R&B hits and he's the man now.

PS- weren't they practically making out at a Lakers-Timberwolves game in this year's Westeren Conference Finals.....so sad when public couples spit.

I am going have say it. JT is a has been. He definitely went out like a punk bitch during the Janet's Boobygate and lost cool points.-Dave Chapelle spoke on this during the show. I glad that Usher beat him out. Besides, Usher can better replicate MJ"s moves for which I gotta give him credit.

He never said he was 'better' than Justin. I thought the point he was trying to make was very clear, although very irrelevant. Most people don’t even talk about Justin. Now if Justin or even Usher had ever said anything like 'don't compare me to Michael Jackson', then I would be saying, now who the heck EVER said that I WAS!!! He just made a pointless statement, that’s all.

Thats basically my point. Why would you brag just because you suck less than somebody else. THEY BOTH SUCK. Truthfully I liked Justified more than any Usher album. I just don't see his appeal. I mean I could fill a CDR up of his songs and it would be okay, but his albums are just mediocre and he talks like he's the next MJ.

forget the Usher/JT statement, what about the outrageously rude interview he gave at the post show.

He would not let the intervier talk and wouldn't let Alicia Keys talk either. It got so bad that ALicia had to call him out and actually say on camera,,,"CAN I TALK? CAN I ADD SOMETHING?

and even after that he continued to not only dominate the converstaion but ignore what the interviewer was asking to thank more people and talk about his after party plans.

Right at the end,, he stands up and starts yelling something and Alicia looks over at Kanye West and says,," this guy is out of contol".


It was one of the most rude things I've seen a performer do.


he also got visiablly pissed when the crowd was yelling LUDA instaed of his name.

SOmething is wrong with this guy. 5 million records isn't all of that. Shoot his whole career he's only sold like 10 or 12 million but he thinks he's a mega star.

Usher is Cool. I think he's fashioned as Another MICHAEL JACKSON dancing>>>> I Like USHER ALOT!!!!

FUCK DA BOWF A DEM!!!

But yea, Errrrrsher is an awfully arrogant bastard. He's gonna be FUCKED in the head when his decline starts - beware of your own hype!!

Usher's first line about "i guess there's no comparison" did sound pompous. He is good. A great dancer with great pop sensibility. He's had more than 2 or 3 hits. His 8701 album was incredible and he had hits before that. But I'm not sure he's had a "Cry Me a River" song. I mean River was really unique as far as the vocal delivery and the ethereal music. I think Justin and Usher both have talent.


Anyway, as Usher kept talking it seemed like he was just telling peole to stop comparing them. He even ended with 'there's no competition ... that's my boy." I think he just wants to be more graceful ... like his mentor Sean Combs .. who amazingly gets along well with all the men who screwed his ex-girlfriend (I mean I even saw Chris Judd sporting a Sean John shirt on one show LOL) and people who talk bad about him. I admire that. Hopefully Usher will strive for such diplomacy.



Anyway, about the interview on the couch. Usher has an ego and thought that out of the three, he was the top dog, so he took the lead in the conversation. Alicia represented and took the mike to say her peace. Then Suchin, to me, began talking over Usher because she had to wrap up. I thought she was rude. He was talking softly at first .. then when Suchin cut him off he stood up and kept talking to assert himself and demand respect. I probably would have done the same thing. There are more graceful ways to wrap up an interview in the interest of time.

I did hear Alicia say Usher was out of control ... i don't think she meant that in a bad way ... just that he was too amped or something. I mean and was standing and rallying ....

ursha can suck it. he just added to JT's credibility with that statement, which is a sad thing because JT's kind of a joke himself...but at least he shows some class and keeps from talking shit about his peers (except for when he's talking trash about britney, of course ).

why don't they have a big tough dance off..like in the Beat It video...

Usher--Hey Justin, take this!! pop, pop, lock, shuffle, pop, cratch grab
JT- well, you take this-- Shimmy, pop, kick , pop , shimmy, crotch grab
MJ- pop, pop, shimmy, moonwalk

They both equally suck.

To me, Usher's latest album has shown has vocal maturity because he's hitting notes and rolling notes like never before this time around but as far as him dancing, which yes he can do very well, he has stolen every type of pop, slide and breakdown from other artists. Its just the cold hard facts that he's basically milking off of it as long as he can. JT can sing. JT can dance. But JT is a lil punk who turned his back on the true pop princess. JT also has an ego to contend with. Jt is annoying.

Usher is the black JT and JT is the white Usher.
Usher as a person, seems worse though. Bring Sisqo back, I think he's learned humility now.

And they both are the clear Michael Jackson.

okaypimpn said:

It all adds up!

No one is talking about JT right now because he's busy with his Girlfriend, Cameron Diaz. Usher is the one who's making money off exploiting his former relationship...for that, he loses major cool points

IMO, JT is a better artist than "Ursher", but he happens to be the one who is in the spotlight right now so.....

I think he's still a glo-worm, though

Smooches;)

They can both go to hell. Annoying prats with rather MEDIOCRE voices when it all comes down to it (this is an era where Alicia is hyped to be the next Aretha, so I guess Usher fancies himself as Marvin Gaye). Sure, they can dance! So fucking what? Lots of people can dance, and dance a hell of a lot better than they can. Plus their moves are not exactly original (*cough* MJ *cough*).

Dancing doesn't make an artist.

CLASSIC!! Signature worthy!!

I underestimated how much of an idiot he actually is. He just finds ways to be completely obnoxious that you wouldn't think he could. But I'm sure some fanboy will be here to defend him sooner or later.

Supernova said:

Ditto. He is a definitely a ego maniac. He is starting to look too much like a piece of pop
music .

Supernova said:

agrees enthusiatically

they're both egomaniacs. JT is more intelligent though. Usher cant keep his mouth shut. JT is a more silent(thanks god) egomaniac.

I personally dont think any of them can sing and dance. they look so choreographed even when they're freestlying.

Supernova said:

The King is back. Ursher is.Classic Music from the Greatest Artist of Our time. Everybody needs to Knock on His DOOR for a Cut.The Musical Genius of Our Time. Haters&Relics cover your ass because the Smoke coming from Confessions" will burn your Eyes out&Blast the Wax outta your ears. now back to the Show

Another good one!!

LightOfArt said:

Come on now. JT is just as bad. However, I feel that Usher does a better job at mimicing MJ moves and it not ashamed to admit it. Wheras at times, JT gets besides himeslf and tries to front like he is original.

Justin is a transgender....theres a girl in him waiting to bust out...so...we can move on

I liked Ushers past to cds...but its hard to get around the ego.
Usher is going to ruin his career solely based on attitude....humility before honor...you have to always have a humble attitude cuz next year ya'll be talking about omarion and o'ryan and not usher

psykosoul said:

Da Kang of modern r&B! Hes the Legend of our time. As a artist unshakable,unbreakable. Haters shake tha Flakes! Justin is a relic and A Has-been,he has no Business int thi convewrsation!

Rhondab said:

You may be right on this one. Afterall, he did get a kick out of being in Elton John's video as Elton. Who knows, Usher may also have a transgender side that he hasn't shared with the world and gotten in touch with. LOL Maybe this will be part of Confessions PartIII.
