His acting was more convincing when he was in ''In The Mix'' then it is inside the court room rolleyes

Hell that small role he had in The Faculty was even better lol

This is why people (especially celebrities) shouldn't be so quick to rush into marriage.When it ends (and it will end),things are gonna turn ugly,especially when there are children and alot of money involved.Smart celebrities like P.Diddy and Oprah don't have to go through this nonsense.

" Ursher" did it the old fashion way & got married to his baby mama. Its nothing wrong with that. He did love her at one point & risk his career for that woman & fiercely protected her in the press. But people are so judgemental about anything someone does to be happy in their lives. Everybody is not perfect. Even Prince has had two failed marriages. None of u have perfect lives & being famous doesn't make it any better.

Everybody can't have a long successful "Intact" marriage like Will & Jada who should write a book about their relationship..

eye will ALWAYS think of prince like a "ACT OF GOD"! N another realm. eye mean of all people who might of been aliens or angels.if found out that prince wasn't of this earth, eye would not have been that surprised. R.I.P. prince

I agree that people are judgemental but Usher could have been more wiser in his decisions with this woman. To my understanding, his mother even warned him about her.. I dont think anyone is judging him just giving opinions on what he could have done better...

ALSO on Will and Jada..... while their relationship is appears to be drama free.... I think their relationship is not as perfect as they portray it to be but then again this is with ANY relationship.

NO ONE has a perfect relationship and I can imagine the ups and downs they have went through since their relationship is in the spotlight. It is good that they have stayed together and worked out what ever issues they might of had. I think the problem with celebrities is, they are not willing to work things out and the first sign that shows they have to compromise they not willing to but if you love someone that is what you do.

Sounds good but a blind man come see the Usher situation from a mile off. Go back and read the comments on the thread the day he announce he was getting hitched.

The marriage was doomed from the start but that's what happens when you think with your heart and dick instead of your brain.

I admire how "Ursher" turned his nose up at all the criticism he got for marrying her. U can't help who u fall in love with. He really risk his career for her. If he would have married Chilli & had two babies with her all this wouldn't even be discussed. Its just that none of his fans & the press wanted him with Tameka & they sabotaged the union. But he kept it going for as long as he could & continued to bed her. Even after the marriage ended.. Go on Ursher live ur life. Do what U want. Don't listen to the haters. I hope he makes it through this trial. It seems its taking a lot out of him.

By the way Tameka does make good looking kids. Even the ones by her first baby daddy our easy on the eyes...

To be honest, I didnt keep up with his marriage and everything that went on but it did seem REALLY FAST that he would rush into marriage. I know he dated a couple of people after Chili.

Tameka was his stylist & hairdresser. They were very close. She knew him better than anybody & saw all the women & some --- come & go. Including Chilli...

I wonder if she was nice to Usher's mom at that point. Was Chili ever suspicious of Tameka?

Usher likes older women. There's always been a notable gap in age between him and the girl he dates.

He was probably looking for another mother figure and Tameka was the easiest grab. She was always 'right there' and available.

yeahthat I never seen Usher with someone his age or closest to his age. It was always older women. I think he lost his virginity at a young age to a much older woman (no thanks to Puffy's perverted ass).

Did Usher Attempt to Harm... Courtroom

According to Dennis Byron, of HipHopEnquirer.com, Judge Bensonetta Tipton Lane booted the press from the courtroom Tuesday during the contentious child custody trial of singer Usher Raymond and his ex-wife, Tameka Foster.

Judge Lane ordered the press removed from the courtroom in advance of testimony by Usher Raymond, who was asked by Tameka’s lawyer, Lisa West, to explain a violent incident involving his own mother, Jonetta Patton.

According to Mr. Byron, Tameka Foster’s attorney objected to the press being removed from the courtroom. It is her contention that Mr. Raymond is an unstable and unfit father.

Read Dennis Byron’s report after the break, and stay tuned for more news from the courtroom later today.

Dennis Byron writes:

During yesterday’s testimony, Usher Raymond was asked whether he tried to kill his own mother. According to confidential sources, Usher rammed his own vehicle into his mother’s car after she showed up at his house. This is the second time Usher’s attorneys have requested that the media be excluded from the courtroom even though Tameka’s attorney has always wanted the media to be present as she has represented through her counsel that there would be a more balance reporting of the facts.

It is very interesting that Usher’s attorneys have made these motions on the heels of their client doing very poorly on the witness stand. Attached court documents are from a previous order issued that gives the judge latitude to exclude media from the hearing. I also learned that the judge in this particular case made a controversial ruling that ultimately resulted in a man killing himself after he lost custody of his kids.

Man Commits Suicide After Losing Custody

I hope these rulings by this judge doesn’t cause any parties in this case to do the same. Also, remember this is the same judge who ordered rapper T.I. to pay additional child support to his kids years ago.

Below is exclusive video footage of Judge Lane booting the media from the courtroom at the Fulton County Courthouse in downtown Atlanta on Tuesday.

Classic reason to date someone long enough to get an idea of who they are. I understand that sometimes you date people and then they seem to really show their true colors after you put a ring on it, but I'm a firm believer in date, date, and date more to be sure as much as possible that you know what you are getting yourself into before signing your life over to them and procreating.

Exclusive: Usher Loses Hi...ness Stand

More exclusive details from the ongoing Raymond vs Raymond child custody hearing.

According to Dennis Byron, of HipHopEnquirer.com, Tameka Foster‘s attorney Lisa West resumed her grilling of singer Usher Raymond on the witness stand today as the media was allowed back into the courtroom.

Usher lost his cool when Tameka’s attorney asked him a question about a deposition. “I’m not finished speaking,” said Usher, interrupting West’s objection. But the judge set him straight, saying “You have to stop talking when the attorney objects.”

“I’m sorry,” said Usher sheepishly as he lowered his head.

USHER GRILLED IN COURT
Did You Sleep
with the Bridesmaid?

EXCLUSIVE
052312_usher_launch_v2
Screw soap operas, Usher's child custody trial has all the drama a lonely housewife needs -- 'cause his ex-wife's lawyer dropped a bombshell in court ... accusing him of sexing one of Tameka Foster's bridesmaids.

Usher was being cross-examined by Foster's lawyer yesterday in Fulton County court ... about his claim that Tameka brings nannies in and out of their children's lives.

Tameka's lawyer asked Usher if one of the nannies in question had "left Miami because you were discovered in bed with Maya Fox Davis?" Sources close to the couple tell TMZ Davis was a bridesmaid for Tameka ... and the alleged incident happened during their marriage.

Usher's attorney quickly objected, but you gotta watch the clip to see how it played out in court. There's also a contentious exchange between Usher and Tameka's lawyer regarding that whole spitting incident.

The trial is in recess, and will be back in session in July. Until then ... there's always "Revenge.

Yeah. That's probably why I'll turn off of marriage. You have to know what you're getting into and what that person maybe. People just love to spring into a relationship and marriage like it's a game. And it's a game because if both parties don't play right, they'll get burnt.

Exactly.Or,to make things easier,don't get married at all wink Just be a "couple",but don't make it official.Oprah has been with Stedman for decades and they're still together.
