Usher Raymond IV was spotted at Rock and Reillys Pub in West Hollywood a few days ago where he was partying the night away in the wee hours of the morning (August 7, 2012).
The R&B superstar was originally posted up in a private room but when he heard Karaoke going on downstairs, Usher ran downstairs to participate.
Perhaps the loving father wanted to blow off some steam after mourning his stepson Kile Glover, who was buried a little over a week ago. Or maybe it was to shake off the stress of his upcoming custody battle with his ex-wife, Tameka Raymond, who is also mourning her loss.
[READ: Tameka Raymond Wants You To Know... ]
I heard that Tameka is somewhere spending time with her kids trying to make sense of her Kile’s tragic death, so it was the perfect time for Usher to let loose at the bar to sing “where there is love” during his special karaoke rendition of the Jackson 5′s “I’ll Be There” …
Photos + video below…
According to TMZ (who obtained the video footage above), Usher had been hanging out upstairs in a private area with friends throughout the night — but came down around 1am to show the bar how karaoke is REALLY done.
I guess people mourn in different ways.
What did you think of Usher’s Michael Jackson impression?

The only thing more obnoxious that an amazingly good singer doing kareoke on a laid back fun night is a SIGNED RECORDING ARTIST. Dang attention hungry tool. Did he think he was "blessing" them with a show? Just seems a little arrogant, with the "ok fans now you sing," mic to the audience and stuff.
Hopefully he was just tipsy and feeling social?
Fatmeka is that you? You should press charges on the man WHO KILLED YOUR SON instead of favoriting Usher related tweets but I guess people mourn different ways.
Fatmeka you already lost almost everything for stalking this man who doesn’t want you. You should take god’s warnnings in account and find yourself a new man and leave Usher and grace miguel alone fat dark skinned bitch. I bet you spend your time eating hambergurs in a dark room lmao.
Now you can’t pimp Usher’s kids on twitter anyore.
You stay losing, it’s time to change and focus on yourself.
Good luck on the custody battle. Since you are cursed and that God hates you you are probably going to lose those 2 kids as well.
YOU are pathetic, VILE and a poor excuse for a human. God help you!
and you are mad cause this post didn’t turned how you wanted #pow #fatassloser
Harsh and totally uncalled for.
please tell me what is harsh and uncalled for. this is nothing but the truth.
Usher has only to pull the trigger: He should tell the judge that she is depresssed and not stable and that her son are not safe with her, especially now we know she refused to sue the murderer of her son. Usher is going to win that for sure. He must be laughing his ass off on his to the bank.
Normally, I don’t respond on these blogs but this one was a little over the top! God does not hate!!! He loves all of us and some of us go through for various reasons. I don’t know why and I don’t know what type of person she is but hopefully she finds and keeps God close throughout this.
I don’t care what has is or has done. She has lost a precious baby and my heart breaks for her a thousand times.
Please show some compassion.
Thanks.
Can I ask you something?have you ever ask yourself this question. If this was usher son that was dead.you think Ryan Grover will help usher or still home for two months mourning or maybe have some sympathy for usher lost.I don’t think so…and if his children are usher stepson then usher children are his stepson too. Come on now people be reasonable and be fair to others.I bit he wouldn’t even spend penny on usher kids.
I am not sure I totally understand what you were trying to say. I have two step kids therefore I am their step mother… but their mother is NOT my sons step mom. My son has a mother and a father (we are married) there is no step parent. So noooooooo Ryan has never had the role of being step parent to Ushers kids…ever. Beyond that I dont know how Ryan would have helped/been there and neither do you. BUT he probably wouldnt have spent a penny especially since their father is financially well off and probably wouldnt need it. As far as having sympathy having that is FREE it cost no one anything to have TURE sympathy and yes he very well could have had sympathy for the family especially since regardless to anyones title…Kile is a child AND Kile has brothers. Regardless to me Ushers actions are suspect and dont line up to HIS words. Just my opinion.
I have a question for Michelle and Tameka.
Why Kile’s murder is still running the streets as a free man.
Tameka wants Usher to tweet "Pray 4 Kile" but she DOESN’T WANT TO PRESS CHARGE ON THE MAN WHO JUMP ON HIS SON AND KILLED HIM.
Tameka’s dark skinned ass should be ashamed. This man is running the street around Atlanta, mocking them and she is still worried about what Usher is doing.
For the record, life doesn’t stop just because somebody died.
Usher would be a BAD role model for his sons if he teached them to stay drepessed in a dark room like Tameka.
I have another question, where is RYAN GLOVER. I saw on the facebook of Marsha Chin Glover that THEY HAVE A JET. Why this man who OWNS A TV COMPANY didn’t sell his jet and most of his assets to keep his son alive.
Tameka should get over it, the more she is trying to fight him, the more Usher hates her. She is ruining all her chances with him.
She doesn’t realize it now but one day their two boys are going to grow up and they will see her true colors.
She lost one baby daddy during a gang war(a drug dealer), she went to prison for tax fraud, she almost died because of plastic surgery, she lost Usher forever because of her attitude, she lost her most precious sons and she is still into negativity.
Let’s pray for this woman, she is cursed, god hates her but she still doesn’t understand it.
How about I pray for you first? Grow up and go read your bible before you add GOD into your post filled with hate and lies. GOD is love and hates no one…not even YOU! He may not love the things we SAY or do but he loves us no matter what. Oh and the comment on her skin color shows your own insecurities about yourself…you didnt put Tameka on blast…you put yourself on blast…do better!!
I WAS JUST ABOUT TO RESPOND;I’M GLAD I READ YOUR REPLY FIRST!YOU SAID EVERYTHING I WANTED TO SAY!!!! THANKS!
In the mean time the murder of her son is still a free man. Kile is an angel looking at her from the sky. She is vindicative towards Usher because of a tweet who wouldn’t have change anything BUT SHE REFUSES TO SUE THE MAN WHO KILLED HER SON? SHE IS A BAD MOM. PERIOD. SURE KILE IS CURSING HER FROM WHERE HE IS.
USHER ASKED FOR A DELAY OF THE CUSTODY BATTLE SO CINCO AND NAVYID CAN RECOVER BUT SHE REFUSED. TAMEKA SHOULD SPEND HER FREETIME ON THE KILE GLOVER FUND AND ON MAKING SURE THAT THE MAN WHO KILLED HER SON WILL GO TO JAIL. TYPICAL DARK SKINNED BABY MAMA, OBSESSED WITH THE BABY DADDY BUT NEGLECTING THE KIDS.
Kile would be still alive if RYAN GLOVER WASN’T TOO BUSY SCREWING MARSHA CHIN and IF SHE WASN’T TOO BUSY PARTYING AT THE ESSENCE FESTIVAL.
THEY ARE BAD PARENTS PERIOD. USHER WILL WIN THE CUSTODY. SHE PROVED AGAIN SHE IS A BAD MOM WHO WOULD RATHER LET HER SON DYING THAN SELLING HER ASSETS TO PAY HIS LIFESUPPORT
Well said! I can’t stand ignorant people posting stupid s@#t they don’t know anything about.
@YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED TAMONKEY
Do you have tourettes?! cause your ranting about things you know nothing about! you don’t know these people personally to pass judgment you need psychiatric evaluation A.S.A.P
Amen! My point exactly…our God does not HATE.
I agree Vay, instead of giving this person the satisfaction of arguing with them but starting a prayer circle around them, with comments not filled with hate but pity.
They need more than prayer….Take Your Meds Boo. #Seriously
Get help
You really have issues and should get some counseling! Just plain ignorant!
I have a question for YOU: What’s with the name change and multiple posts? You may as well use the same name from the other thread; your comments give you away, youngun.
Ok Geniuses, the reality is Kile’s killer was an friend and a girl that hit him by mistake. She was not drunk, she probably did not see him until it was too late. The accident was investigated and was deemed an accident. Now, with all that vile hate that you are spewing, go some where and lay on your face and pray for forgiveness and a new heart.
Naw dawg! That was not a good look. Where was Grandma Gracie to put a stop to this foolishness?
I understand you trying to be nice to tamkea regarding the death of her child but you don’t have to throw usher under the bus in the process
If this was to make Usher look bad…shame on you. Is it his stepson or not? Last week folks was mad because Usher was getting too much attention (that he didn’t ask for surrounding the death) because he has a real father and Tamek…but now he’s not mourning.. Come on now! I see how the bloggers in ATL do it. LOL. Obviously Tameka has gotten back in ATL bloggers good graces. Because all of yall are posting the same stories to make him look bad. Tameka need to stay her ass off the internet planting stories and replying on twitter. All yall talked so greasy about her but now she’s the perfect mother.
@Tee…I was agreeing with you. My message is to ATlien…
My words exactly. One minute these bloggers are on Ushers side and throwing her under the bus, but now that she has lost a child some how she has become "Mother of the Year" and he the devil. I guess whatever gets you clicks.
No one said that; showing compassion is not the same thing as elevating a person to sainthood status. Tameka’s not perfect; neither is Usher. When someone experience a tragedy, you don’t kick them while they’re down. You show them the decency to leave them alone while they rebuild their life. Only a venomous person would continue to tear someone down when they’re on their last leg.
Usher makes HIMSELF look bad…HE hopped out of VIP to put on a show…if he was home MOURNING like he want people to believe there would be no video AND you all know good and well if this was TAMEKA in the club she would be called EVERYTHING but a child of GOD. The reality is he cant be that concerned about her parenting his boys if he is in the club mourning. WHo needs to plant anything when the flower is blooming on it’s own…He basically HELPING her case and none of you Stans see that…take the shades off…I am actually starting to believe Tameka more and more and it’s ALL based on Ushers ations…
First off whomever posted this is making it more than it is this man was in the club enjoying himself (how do we know he was morning his stepson?) further more what he does in his free time is his business not ours how is singing Karaoke making himself look bad? we just chose to comment after the blogs blow a story up that’s really small we just need to stay out of these people’s lives and let them live it!!!
Have ever ask your self this questions? If this was usher son that die,do you think Ryan Glover will care about usher son death.or you think he will spend two months in the house mourning usher son or have some sympathy for usher lost.or maybe help usher with some financial issues?I don’t think so.if his boys are usher stepsons then usher sons should be his stepsons too.just because he got money that doesn’t mean you should take advantage off him cause if this was Ryan;he wouldn’t never care about usher boys.usher use to buy anything his kids want and haved he ever buy anything for usher kids.tameka just want usher back and it will never happened in 100000 years.people pls be reasonable to others and be fair to other too.
In the famous words of late great Whitney Huston "______ is ______"
I have been trying to figure this out and cant…lol help?!
Crack is Whack!!!!!! You don’t remember that?
Usher still haven’t took that drug test. I wonder why in determining which is a "better" home for the children they wouldn’t take into consideration to conduct a mental evaluation along with a drug test on both parties.
hahahahaha YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yes!!!!!!!!! and YES!!!!!!!!! Please let me say I could NOT figure that out for nothing…hahaha BUT you are sooooooooo right and I have said that over and over at this point Ush has not taken the drug test. I agree though drug screen them BOTH and yes I woudld mentally evaluate both of them as well…great point.
Girl shit…I thought it was "my love IS your love." Trippin! lol
Vay, Tameka submitted to the psyc. eval Usher insisted on.
hahahaha my love is your love is better then what I was coming up with…NOTHING!!! I was clueless!!! lol
I’m not a fan of Tameka either but, I gotta say, that if what they say is true about him using Kile’s death for good publicity, he’s dead wrong. If his team released that statement saying he wasn’t going to fight for custody and it was a lie….he’s dead wrong.
Respect, is all I’m saying.
Tameka is wrong for REFUSING TO PRESS CHARGES ON THE MAN WHO KILLED HER SON BECAUSE HE IS A FRIEND OF HER.NOW THAT’S SOMETHING WRONG.
YOU are an idiot and ignorant. The gentleman that caused the accident is NOT a friend of Tameka’s he is a personal friend of Kile’s FATHER, Ryan Glover. Kile was with his father, his father’s wife, children and friends when the accident occurred.
@You Should Be: I hope to God that you never cause an accident that results in someone either being severly hurt or injured because you seem to be unable to grasp the concept of an "accident".
Tameka is being compassionate by not pressing charges, yet you find the lack of charges as a reason to criticize her and berate her.
You don’t have to put a person in prison in order for them to suffer, causing the death of a another human being is something that this gentleman will have to live with for the rest of his life.
All in all this was a tragic accident.
Ryan Glover appears to be the type of man who does not crave the spotlight..which is why I assumed he stays out of it. As for his personal business regarding his son thats just it "his personal business"
As far Usher supposingly renting a "plane" for Tameka and other things ( that up in the air" Unless it can be confirmed I’m not buying it.
Plus Michelle hasn’t confirmed this and she is normally spot on when it comes to the "TEA" in ATL
As I said: In the past I come on here and talk maaad shaat from time to time. You know somethings are just border line disrespectful.
I only hope that everything works out for the best of manners for everyone involved.
sidenote: We haven’t had an update regarding the young lady that was hurt with him. Can we get an update? Thanks,
RYAN GLOVER IS A BAD DAD WHO LET USHER CHARTING A PLANE FOR HIS KID, HE IS A COWARD WHO IS TOO SCARED TO PRESS CHARGES ON THE MURDER OF HIS SON.
The aim of getting someone into PRISON is not making him suffer, the aim is JUSTICE TO BE SERVED. THIS MAN TOOK AWAY THE LIFE OF A YEAR KIDS BUT TAMEKA AND RYAN FORGIVE HIM… BUT ARE AT MAD AT USHER BEING CALLED KILE’S STEPSON. THEY ARE BOTH SHALLOW AND STUPID.
RYAN GLOVER AND TAMEKA SHOULD HAVE SOLD THEIR ASSETS TO SAVE KILE’S LIFE BUT THEY WOULD RATHER SPEND THEIR CHECKS ON PAYING BLOGGERS… DEADBEAT PARENTS. TAMEKA WILL LOSE THE CUSTODY BATTLE. NOW THAT’S FOR SURE.
Don’t you have home work? A boyfriend of your own, perhaps?
Why so cynical at such a young age? You must be a huge fan of Usher’s to like his girlfriend AND know the name of Ryan’s new wife; most people don’t know that. Or care.
@ You Should Be: Who are you to decide what they should have sold? We don’t know what discussions went on behind closed doors. The doctors may have told them that there was no hope of recovery no matter how much money they threw at the situation. Money DOES NOT solve every problem.
Michelle has spoiled tea all the time. But keeps the tea on Phaedra and her fake friends secret.
interesting…if this is in fact true why wouldnt she be loyal to her friends? You dont turn on your friends just to satisfy folks need for the tea "being nosey".
What does her being dark skinned have to do with anything?
It shows that persons own ignorance that’s all. I have traveled all over the US and other countries and let me tell you “Rachet” behavior comes in all creed, color and shades.
@ Amber
Thank you! Was wondering the same thing myself. Its 2012 and we as black folk still harp on skin color over any and everything? Wow…. SMH and asking God why.
you are probably a dark skinned fat ass with a weave lmao
THANK YOU
IT WAS A VERY UNFORTUNATE ACCIDENT! AND BY PUTTING THAT PERSON IN JAIL WILL NEVER BRING KYLE BACK. IF THE PERSON WAS DRUNK ON THE JET SKI YES I WOULD SAY PRESS CHARGES. BUT WHY KEEP DRAGGING IT OUT IN A LONG TRIAL THE ONLY WANNA WALKS OUT HAPPY IS THE LAWYERS IN THE END CAUSE THEY GOT PAID! PLEASE LET THAT CHILD AND HIS BEAUTIFUL BLACK MOTHER ( NOT FAT DARK SKINNED MOTHER) REST AND READ A BIBLE tAMONKEY
SO RELEASING STATEMENTS ON USHER NOT TWEETING "RIP KILE" IS BETTER THAN SUING THE MAN WHO JUMPED ON YOUR SON. HOPE USHER WILL USE THIS DURING THE CUSTODY BATTLE
RYAN GLOVER CAN KEEP ON SCREWING MARHSA WHILE KILE IS DYING AND TAMEKA CAN PARTY IN SARDAIGNE WHILE KILE IS DYING. LOL YOU DARK SKINNED FOLKS ARE THE WORST.
trust me white people and light skinned don’t count MONEY when it comes to their kids. Only dark skinned monkey would rather spent their time DMing Usher fans and favoriting Usher related tweets than putting a murderer in jail.
IT WASN’T AN ACCIDENT, ACCORDING TO REPORT THE MAN WAS TRYING TO JUMP ‘OVER’ KILE WHEN HE KILLED HIM. IF YOU WANT MY OPINION THIS MAN WAS DOING IT ON PURPOSE.
MEANWHILE RYAN GLOVER CAN KEEP ON SCREWING HIS ‘NURSE’ MARSHA SINCE KILE AINT A PROBLEM FOR THEIR LIVES ANYMORE.
At first I thought Tameka could be lying but now I have a change a heart. I don’t think he’s really mouring over his stepson . I’m just keeping it 100.
She isnt even mourning herlself. Read the post entirely. MICHELLE JUST SAID THAT TAMEKA IS ON VACATION, PARTYING LIKE A 16 YEARS OLD WHILE SHE REFUSED TO SELL HER ASSETS TO KEEP HER SON ON LIFE SUPPORT.
Poor baby..GOD is not hate, he is love and Satan was a angel until he wanted to exalt himself above the Father. He was cast down because of his own actions. God loves Tameka, Mr. Glover, Usher and even you. Prayers for you.
@Michelle the ATLien…I do not think you realize how ignorant you sound with these posts. Just because this man does karioke he has to be "mourning". I use to feel sorry when people talked bad about you but I have no more sympathy. YOU, oh gracious blogger, need to be prayed for.
SHE doesn’t have the choice she received the checks that tameka sould have spend on kile’s life support
I hope you are being paid to rant because you are spending way to much time and energy for you not to get a check
OMG. It is so much hate in this world regardless of anyone feelings towards this woman, she LOST HER CHILD respect that. God I pray for the miserable people in this world.
she doesn’t even respect THAT HERSELF. SHE IS NOT PRESSING CHARGES ON THE MAN WHO JUMPED ON HER SON FOR FUN AND KILL HIM
WOW, ok not into internet beef or arguing about someone’s life that I have never met. I’m just speaking from a Mothers standpoint. I feel sorry for anyone that has lost a child regardless of their personal decisions.
The man committed no crime. It was a unfortunate accident and I am sure he feeling really guilty. So he needs prayers as well. That man did not take that runner out in the water with the intentions of killing anyone, and they know that. They also know that nothing they do or say is going to bring him back. This man has family and kids as well. He has to explain to himself and those around him that it was a accident. So you all’s solution will be to break apart this man’s family and sanity because your mad, hurt, angry?
ninja please so the murderer can have a free pass for jumping on a kid for fun and killing him but Usher can’t sing at a karaoke bar?
Are you crazy? In what world are you living?
I wish that you and your kids are goinf to end up like Kile killed "by accident" and that justice won’t be served because your relatives are coward.
RYAN GLOVER IS A COWARD. HEWILL REMAIN A COWARD.
Ohplease, if you read my post you will find that I did not say anything against Usher singing and yes the proof is in the puddin, the man was not charged. There is this thing called burden of proof and apparently it wasn’t met. Ms.Raymond can file civil suits and wrongful death if she want but criminal charges are not going to happen UNLESS he comes forward and says I intentially meant to hurt that child. I am still sending prayers for you all. I don’t understand why you would address me out of my name for stating truth but to each his own and my children are fine. I do understand accidents do happen thats why I gave them back to GOD a long time ago. My protection can only go so far but my prayers that he continue to watch over them has went much further. In the event that something does happen, although it might be hard, I will not operate out of spite. That is not who I am.
People need to get up off Usher. It could also be argued that he chose that song to let Tameka know that he will always be there for her, and that even if she finds someone new, she can always go back to him. I mean that is why it was written and he knew he would be video’d. For all you know that could of been one of Kile’s favorite songs. Give the child (Usher) a break. Although the child is not his blood, he spent time with him and I am sure he feels some kind of way. So what if its not the way you all think he should feel. This is just not news anymore.

Michelle, I think it is time to start blocking/banning some IP addresses. I understand this is a gossip blog, but seriously? This type of hatred and racism will only run off your REAL readers (because it’s obvious that everyone here CAN’T read).
Peace…
Amen Sista!! Good grief its some clowns begging for attention on this post!
I was honestly thinking the same thing. I prefer this blog over most but this mess has to stop. Although today I can tell it’s the same foolish person just changing their name. It’s getting old. Block, banned…do something!!
you think that you are the only one who can bash people. Gworl please. Have several seats. Those people are saying nothing but the truth:
-Tameka send hateful DMs to Usher’s fans…check
-Tameka favorited Usher related tweets…check
-Tameka released a statement about Usher not tweeting RIP Kile…check
-Tameka refused to sue the man who killed her son…check
-Tameka was partying at the Essence Festival while her son was dying…check
-Ryan Glover has a Jet and own a tv channel…check
-Ryan Glover is one of the most successful business man in Atlanta
-Ryan Glover was riding Marsha Chin while his friend was "jumping" over his son to kill him…check
-Ryan Glover and Tameka foster refused to press charged on the man who jumped over their son for fun and killed him…check
-Ryan Glover is a coward who wants Usher to pay his bills…check
nothing but the truth.
michelle asked those comments and knowing her probably post them herself for attention. You are a dumbass if you trust this fat ass ugly darkskinned blogger
I like this blog because she actually monitors it unlike others that are filled with immature people, hateful people and advertisement.
Just FYI… I block them all the time. You’ll never notice it though because there are more way idiots out there than you realize.
Most of the time y’all get at ‘em before I do but TRUST me when I tell you I weed ‘em out every day.
Poor michelle now you scared that Tameka would stop sending those lovely checks that would have saved Kile’s life?
Both of you have his blood in your hands
what a fukkin idiot. go find your life. up in her disgracing a dead child’s family. what a fukkin loser u are
AGREED! Thank you for saving me the trouble of asking, cuz I was about to. Sounds like Ray Ray’s dumb ass. Clearly a girl with no social skills and friends. Can’t think of another reason why someone that young could be so damn bitter.
I been told her to do that lol.
@ Tasha: Thank you! I just mentioned this post to one of my family members, and the person said "can’t the [site owner] block the [hateful comments]"? I said "yes", but I guess it’s all about traffic and advertising revenue. SMH
I think that would have made my day if Usher or any signed artist just popped up and decided they wanted to sing. Better than my drunken co-workers singing Journey’s "Dont Stop Believing"
Wow… to some of these comments… Honestly, some of these comments should be erased and banned they’re just awful. We all don’t know the entire situation and should there for stay quiet until we do…Some of u people have too much hate in ur heart for people u don’t know… Seek help
For those of you who hate Michelle so much you sure stay on her jock. If I hated someone there is no way I’d post on their site.
Y’all need Jesus and quick!
Kamala, there it is right there!
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
I believe in free speech and I know everyone is not always going to agree with me BUT that being said, I would hope that we all are ADULT enough to agree to disagree without being vicious. I’ve noticed that Usher posts bring out the worst in people so for the record:
YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED
God Hates…
God Cursed…
Winning Team…
Are all the same person and whoever it is has been blocked but keeps returning from different devices. I’ll try to catch ‘em but I know y’all have my back!
Might be a good idea to have folks start registering..this is ri damn diculous..Get rid of the trolls for good…
Thanks @ATLien!!
Usher was just out having a good time, as he always does. I see this blog is caping for Tameka’s ugly ass but new flash: He is not thinking about her or her son. Sorry but it is what it is. Everything he does has no correlation to her or dramatic ass/drama filled life. Seems like Tameka ain’t the only one obsessed with Usher. LMAO.
lol..say it AGAIN!!!
Exactly he is not thinking about them which is why he WILL be in court as planned…hahahahaha and while I can tell you are trying to be smart this actually hurts Usher more then you know…
Wow just wow at the trolling and negative comments..personally I don’t think he’s "mourning" if you know anything about Usher he loves the HELL out of MJ..THAT’S why he was singing it..the choice is merely coincidental IMO..however like the rest of us we weren’t there so it’s merely speculation just like this ENTIRE situation..some of you take the anonymity that the web gives you to a different level..web thuggin has never been cute..do better
The original question was, what do we think of his performance. My answer?
I thought it sucked. lol Clearly he’d been drinking…should’ve stayed upstairs.
And where are the black people in W. Hollywood?! Only saw two.
i’m not a fan of his falsetto so I declined watching it..but it’s obvious he wasn’t there to pay homage to Kile..that would have been on Twitter via YouTube with him saying as much
BTW, enough with the dark skinned b.s black is beautiful in all shades who are YOU to say otherwise?? Enough is enough
I am going to go back to the original reason why TMZ posted this video to begin with… to just prove the very thing that Tameka said in her response to the court…Usher is not thinking about her or her child that just passed away. You should remember that HE is the one that stated he wanted a later court date for him, Tameka and their sons to mourn the loss of Kile. Speculation…sure BUT Usher is the one who is putting on the show and I am sure he saw folks camaras out recording him sooooooooooooo IF you feeling some kind of way about this video or the title of the post maybe you should start with the partying…I mean…mourning…I mean…chillin…I mean grieving singer himself. I am not here to say who is right…who is wrong…and what is going on in his head…I just know what is APPEARS to be…*giving Ush the side eye. lol
Thanks Vay. I think you may be the only one who actually GOT IT.
I HAD to say something it was drving me crazy! lol
I’m no Stan at all if anything I Stan for the children but geesh it look like he was just having fun. As I stated before the kids only suffer in this mess and truthfully we dont know who is doing what. My prayers are with her cause again I don’t want to imagine.
Hars words here. Tameka does not deserve all this y’all! And who is this Grace? Has anyone seen her? I keep hearing about her but why isn’t Usher showing the world that it Grace is his girlfriend? Maybe Tameka would get off his shoulder! If you love someone, show it to the world!
Grace is seen photographed with Usher during his downtime…you will find a few pics on this blog, if you post his name…google her, and you’ll find pics as well. He mentions her 1st in his CD "thank yous." Mentions his bridesmaid-mistress as well lol.
(I’ve always read the "thank yous"…weird habit of mine). Noticed interesting patterns in Usher’s-the albums that I have-but I won’t bore you with them lol.
After what that woman is putting trough USHER, he needs a BREAK.
All I can say is Usher is good man who will never do evil things
We ALL do evil. Human nature. Difference is, some repent and ask for forgiveness (and make changes) and others don’t.
Hi
We don’t know for sure what’s the story between Tameka and Usher. He has moved on. That is for sure and it seems like Tameka has a hard time to accept the facts. I agree it would perhaps be easier for Tameka to let go of Usher if he stood up and acknowledge Ms. Miguel as his girlfriend. Maybe Tameka is still hoping? Who knows her bitterness. He seems quite happy although here singing in the Karaoke bar. Whatever happens I hope they can work it out since it is two small children involved. You are a father and a mother for life no matter of your past.
Michelle can I ask you something very nicely. If usher was your brother will you convince him to help a woman that got him on child-support and she getting most of his incomes.And do you think if his was usher son that was dead Ryan will help him or spend two months in the house mourning or even care?usher don’t have to do anything for Ryan son if he don’t want to.Ryan should be man enough to take care of his children not usher.my parents weren’t together but my father never let out stepfather to take his responsible.even he had better job than my dad.I know Tameka is your friend and you are trying to help her but you don’t have to downgrade usher in order to help her.Tell your friend to find a new boyfriend maybe that will help her get over usher.from what I see there’s no going back for usher.and also be fair to others.thank you.
Chile please, r u serious when Usher decided to marry Tameka he had to accept her previous children in the equation also. It’s not on Ryan to commit to children that Tameka had after him.
But are they still married? I think it time for Ryan to take his responsible and not usher.and as far as am concerne he didn’t adopt her kids.so he don’t have to do nothing for them now.
You have two different topics, I commented on your first statement. Your question was if it was Usher’s son would Ryan react as a grieving father…..and I still stand my reply "no" because he never committed to being a stepfather to Usher’s children. I know it may be difficult for you but try and follow along with a structured conversation.
Lord, "I’M" sorry for breaking my rule and arguing with a child or a simpleton. Also it’s "Concerned" baby use the dotted red lines their your friend.
NewMeKnowYou, I just want you to know that you crack me the F’ up. I just called both of my clients I saw today (not to their face, of course) simpletons. The 2nd one PISSED in my car! Sad thing is, she wasn’t going to say anything. She was heading up her steps, then came back and told me! AND it was at the end of the day, so I had to find a place to clean it myself and pay for it!! You know I’m getting my $ back Monday! lol.
Haaa lol…..oh, by the way I pissed in your car 0_0
You don’t tell people how to mourn.I had a friend who passed away at 19 and someone told his father he wasn’t grieving right. It is not our place to decide what he or Tameka feel. We don’t know what they face when they are at home alone. Allow a person to grieve how they see fit as long as they aren’t hurting themselves or anyone else. May Kile R.I.P… I wish peace for all affected by this tragedy.
You’re right. Everyone grieves differently, and others shouldn’t judge what’s right and what’s wrong. I think people assume there’s no grief with him because he’s been completely silent about Kyle’s death and it’s impact on him. Only Usher can say. Maybe more will be revealed when court resumes.
I think Usher was just being human an having a good time, Anyhow he did good an every one seemed happy…I LOVES KARAOKE it’s so fun.
Just another publicity stunt to win over the people who have found put his lies.
At a given point, he needs to accept his membership to the “Keith Sweat, Al B Sure, Johnny Gill Club” for singers who time is UP! (Like the Dave Chappelle skit) WRAP IT UP!
Ok, I usually don’t comment on blogs but I have to say something. As a Registered Nurse, I have one question. Do you understand what it means to be brain dead??? This question is directed at whoever it was that name isYOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED TAMONKEY….which I can’t stand first off b/c its racists and it denotes that we as African Americans are monkeys…I digress….The definition of brain dead is the following…..an IRREVERSIBLE form of unconsciousness characterized by a complete loss of brain function while the heart continues to beat. The legal definition of this condition varies from state to state. The usual clinical criteria for brain death include the absence of reflex activity, movements, and spontaneous respiration requiring mechanical ventilation or life support to continue any cardiac function. The pupils are dilated and fixed. Because hypothermia, anesthesia, poisoning, or drug intoxication may cause deep physiologic depression that resembles brain death these parameters must be within normal limits prior to testing. Diagnosis of brain death may require evaluating and demonstrating that electrical activity of the brain is absent on two electroencephalograms performed 12 to 24 hours apart. Brain death can be confirmed with electroencephalograms showing a complete lack of electrical activity (a flat line) or vascular perfusion studies showing a lack of blood flow to the brain…..So for all the people who are saying she took her son off life support b/c they couldn’t afford it or insurance wouldn’t cover it….are incorrect. I really don’t believe that ANY parent would remove their child from life support if there was a chance of survival…Unless Tameka personally says something about this then I refuse to believe it. As far as what Usher is doing in Cali, I can’t comment on it. Different people mourn differently. I just feel that this Mother is mourning her child, blogs should give her a break. In my 18 years as a nurse I have never seen any one come back from being brain dead. I know of families who choose to take their family member home to eventually die but again who is to say they are right and Tameka is wrong…
Thanks @registerednurse for your detailed assessment of the situation. I agree with most of your points, however Tameka DID NOT take Kile off of life support. She would have NEVER agreed to take him off either. The truth of the matter is that Kile died of heart failure.
BTW Tameka already spoke on it… CLICK HERE for the official statement she released last week.
Thanks Michelle, I get upset about it b/c it seems to me that ppl are trying to say he died b/c insurance would not pay or Usher wouldn’t give her the money or Ryan blah blah blah. And making her out to be a horrible person. All I’m saying is, I don’t believe that. And also heart failure occurs as a result of brain death. The brain is not functioning, there is no O2 going to it so EVENTUALLY there will be multi system failure even with life support (mechanical ventilation). Now how long it takes is a different story….I wasn’t in the hospital with them so I don’t know if the Docs said he has no chance of survival so take him off and he died OR he died of heart failure in spite of the mechanical ventilation(life support)…It seems no matter what Tameka does, Usher’s fans will have something to say. My heart goes out to all parties involved b/c parents DO NOT expect to bury their kids….
oh hell there goes Vay again… the straight from the a blog troll. you stay ridin somebodys comments. geez find something else to do. are you tamekas spokesperson or something? get a life!
Here!! *waving hand…if you think that your comment was going to bother me think again. I dont know what you are talking about "riding somebodys comments" but yes I comment just like everyone else who choose to…if you dont like it dont read it it’s really just as simple as that.My NAME is VAY and will always be posted as such…avoid it if you need to. NOW please note that I dont go back and forth on the internet with folks who lack attention at home. I will though put you in your place and keep it moving. My life is actually quite blessed. Thanks for thinking about me…muah!!!
I live for Vay’s comments, they’re a breath a fresh air in sea of bullish*t!
Yep! Agreed. I see some names (yours included) and I’m like, "Wow. Finally a voice of reason." lol Not because I agree with everything (most times I do, sometimes I haven’t), but because of the way it’s conveyed and the respectful way differences of opinions are stated.
Awwwww thanks! Iron sharpens Iron and I appreciate you both. I always know that I can read both of your comments and either agree or see a totally different perspective that I may not have even thought about. We dont all have to agree but RESPECT is a must.
Much love to you both!!
@ lovely grow up. Very immature.
Go Usher! U nd Keith still rock lol!. SFTA get outta here..stop acting like people are supposed to never live after a tragedy. How does a parent teach a child that life has tragedy, but you are supposed to continue to live if they stay depressed and not functional?
This drama continues. We should be focus on his music instead of his private life. So what? He can be in pain and still mourn. Music is an expression of feelings and emotions and he is doing what he loves most of all here. So much negativities against his ex wife. It is beyond words. I don’t blame her for trying to protect her rights to be the boys mother. I read something about Usher brought his current girlfriend and his two boys to one of Tameka sons birthday party. I don’t blame her for getting upset since he brings the girl he was cheating on with Tameka according to sources. And I doubt if this was even Usher idea? Not likely what a man would have done so I get the feeling this Grace is quite jealous. Anyways his love life seems like a circus but what matters is his music. And he is still doing great music. That is what we should focus on, not his private life even though it is hard to avoid when it is getting a lot of attention in the news. I hope this ends well for everyone involved. Peace.
I agree with you…I didn’t know any of this stuff about any of these celebrities until I stumbled onto one blog, and then the next, and so on.
Yes, good music is what we expect from our artists, but people are curious by nature and therefore we tend to enjoy seeing the goings on behind the curtain; being able to see beyond the smoke and mirrors. I guess it’s always been like that with magazines like People and Nat’l Enquirer, but the blogs take it to a whole new level.
I hate that they’re going back to court, but dammit if I’m not interested in the tea that will spill. Curious to know who that 2nd bridesmaid is…I have my speculations lol.
