Holidays should be a time of joy and giving but for superstar Usher Raymond, it seems to be a time of vindictiveness & mean spirits in his daily quest to hurt his ex-wife Tameka Foster Glover Raymond.
After a long drawn out custody battle, a judge ruled in Usher’s favor, giving him “primary” custody of he and Tameka’s two young sons, Usher V (Cinco) and Naviyd.
Tameka and her attorneys fought a hard battle against the superstar, who’s legal team admittedly had ties to the judges re-election campaign.

The final order in the case goes into effect November 20, 2012, and on that date she is to turn over her sons to Usher.
Everyone has their own opinions about the situation. Some of y’all feel it’s all justified, while there are many who feel that the single mother is being railroaded by her richer, more powerful ex-husband.
Have you all forgotten that Tameka lost her young son Kile just a few months ago?? While we see her smiling on the outside, this can’t be an easy situation to deal with.
I received the following email over the weekend:

subject: New House on the Market!!!Hi Michelle,
I love reading your blogs and getting all the tea! & I know you have been staying on top of the Raymond vs. Raymond case. Well, obviously don’t know if you heard or not but Ms. Raymond’s house is definitely up for sale.
As I was scrolling through realtor.com looking for a house of my own, I saw this lovely house. I began looking at the pics and noticed the house looked like all of the backgrounds on Tameka’s twitpics…Don’t believe me….well go on realtor.com and look.
After you see the pics look at her pics on her twitter…Don’t know if any of your readers in the A are looking to buy a house but if they are maybe they can look at that one!!!! It went on the site on 11-2-12.
P.S. I’d rather be an anonymous contributer..but I thought this might help you out
I could have ran with it immediately but unlike some of y’all… I have a heart. Writing about these things takes a lot out of me sometimes, especially knowing all of the details that I do.
That being said, the recent reports of Tameka’s home being on the market, while true, aren’t entirely accurate.
Yes… Usher has listed the home for sale as of November 2, 2012. He’s also marked the value of the home up significantly.
The 8 BR 11 BA home is listed for 3.2 million dollars which $200,000 MORE than his 2007 purchase price. While the housing market in Atlanta has recovered quite a bit… I ASSURE you, the home values haven’t bounced back THAT much.
I guess Usher thinks someone will buy it for more just because his name is associated with it… and maybe he’ll find someone dumb enough to do so, but I doubt it.
Anywhoo… the real deal about their divorce agreement is that Usher can put the house on the market at anytime BUT… Tameka has a clause that states she has up to 60 days to move AFTER the sale is completed.
Hence, those rumors about Tameka having to move before New Years are completely false being that the home was just listed and with that sales price… it’ll probably be sitting for quite a while!
Blah blah blah… All I know is… Ursh betta fit two car seats in that dayum Porsche!
If you happen to be in the market, the lavish overpriced home is described as follows:
Considering the hard ball he played in court, are you even surprised that Usher is moving forward with his plans to sell his son’s family home?

Go Usher! Men CAN get a fair shake in Georgia!
I dont think he took the man way out on this one, not sure why he would want to take his boys from their mother or out of the only home they know. I would think that if he married and had kids with this woman that he must of loved her, its unfortunate that things didnt work out but its seems pretty spiteful and juvenile to handle it in this way. Divorce doesnt have to be ugly, just be fair
I Totally agree with what Rude Bwoy had to say. Usher should think in light of his children, and keep in mind that Tameka is their mother, and Usher himself has a mother and i’m sure he wouldn’t want anyone treating her in that manner. Dude be a man and turn the other cheek.
This is the "BAMMA OF THE WEEK" how could he be so cold to someone he defended on "National TV"..I digress
He is the "BAMA OF THE WEEK", Donkey of the Day, Jackass in June, Asswipe of the Year, shit you name it. Usher is just a low dog mofo, period. I was done after he fu**ed the bridesmaid and was "faithful in his heart", I can’t rock with a whore type man, at least I don’t like knowing they are whores. I KNOW hes a whore.
His wife is lovely to me, I don’t care what Team Usher says, half of them look exactly like baboons so, that cancels out their vote. Usher, if u read this. You are a jackass and a self centered man. May you forever sell "wood" on the charts and receive zero awards at the ceremonies, maybe you can buy some wins with all the money you"ll save after selling your kids home. Dickhead.
Well alright lol
Kiera you have a girl name but a mans mind. Usher paid for that verdict, plain and simple. Its so clear. If you think thats fair then congrats to his sashaying, twirling, over (under) sexual self. He’s a low class dude, he slaps and then hides his hands like most punks do.
He allows his teams and managers (in this case shes his new girlfriend I read in Billboard) do his dirty work, Usher is the low, crab type and smiles pretty for the cameras, in straight coon fashion. His time is almost up, the fans are getting on to his crap, The facade is exposed.
I thought he was a respectable guy, but the Oprah interview showed he was a liar, cheat and he never took that drug test for the court. Which also proves their bias and their slanted or warped view of him. He has lost several die hards over his treatment of his ex wife, but his cocky attitude shows that he doesnt care one bit.
damn….
This all coming from a man (boy) that banged his wifes bridesmaids and no telling who else while he was married to her. I can not believe that the house isn’t a peace offering for all the dirt and nastiness that he has done to her. Any man that would go as low to fu** his wifes close friends ain’t shit in my book!
Usher Raymond is a low, down dirty dog in everyway for the friend snaking, the custody battle, the cheating with his current fugly, old, bug eyed, lumpy new girlfriend, and now selling her home??? FOH. I don’t like that kid, pre-nup or not, he’s dont too much dirt, nix that. Principle is principle.
Tamikas LIFE AFTER USHER is a peace offering..if it wasn’t for him no one would care!
And Michelle I’m gone need u to climb out of manekas pussy! If she can’t pay the fucking bills on this house then she needs to go..bottom line! Usher danced sung and sashayed his ass across countless stages for that house…what did u do besides suck the cum our him….
And the person that sent that email is a fuckn liar…or a stalker…aint no damn way u knew that house was hers from no damn twitpics!!!
There is no reason for him to keep paying for a place that’s only for her? They’re divorced and the kids are with him. She needs to pay where she lay. Can you please stop blogging about them? You (Atlien) should really move on (no harm ment)
@Divaish you must be a coal mining dyke, you seem mad at her as if you have some stake in her living in the house or not. She’s his only sons mother for crying out loud. Hoes like you are why turds like him continue being azzholez and nasty cunts toward their exes. I dont even allow my ex to speak negative sh** on his ex to me, he ONCE loved her, like it or not!! You sound stupid, she matters because Usher made her matter by MARRYING her and having his only kids with her. Dont downplay how the punk must have once felt. He’s hoe-like and most real women know it. Not stupid stans like you. Maybe youre the agent thats selling, why else would you give a darn? He’s a dick no matter how you slice it.
And this is EXACTLY why Usher feels validated in his foolishness-"what did u do besides suck the cum our him…."-REALLY?!? She did what most TEAMUSHER wanna do, and that’s marry him and have his children. That alone warrants her some respect!Damn, can she get some peace for hiding his bisexual ass in the closet-TRUST she knew why he was sashaying cross them stages, hunty!
Going so hard for a nucca that tried to hit his own damn mama with a car..wow.
Why don’t you take that vulgarity back to RWS? Stop suckin’ on Usher’s tip. I see why they constantly curse you out. Make an intelligent point without name calling.
Shut up bitch!
And you just proved my point. We’re a mature crowd here, not the foolish shit that you thrive on "over there." But since you can’t conduct yourself like you’ve got sense, let me retort in a way you can understand.
Please feel free to clean the crack of my ass with your tongue. Try not to fall in love.
Ursher makes my whole ass itch…smh. I’m STILL waiting on that damn drug test
Agreed 80′s baby. He’s a complete dick. Waiting for the stans/Tameka tormentors to start posting in 5, 4, 3, 2,…..
I’m neither an Usher or Tameka stan, but if I were Tameka, I would be helping him sell that house especially if I would get half of what the home sells for. That way she can buy her a new place and really start off fresh. I would be really tired of people calling me a gold digger.
She could move to a deserted island, give him full custody and relinquish rights to any money from him, and his stans (not fans) would STILL call her a golddigger. She can’t win for losing with the fanatics.
If it’s true that she gets 1/2 on the sales, that’s good, but considering this will be her 1st holiday not only without the boys, but Kile as well? clASS act, UsHer.
Has anyone ever thought of the fact that maybe he’s selling the house because he really needs the money from the sell. Just a thought.
well better get them album sales up and limit the porsche purchases.
hes worth 75 million dollars, look it up.
Or maybe because that’s what DIVORCED people do? Move on! She has several business’…she says she doesn’t need hand outs anyway. She will downsize to something for a single mother with three underaged children, one who is in her primary custody and the other two in the primary custody of their father.
Not anything out of the ordinary….she will be okay.
He has behaved most deplorably and been quite vindictive towards Tameka but at the same time, she should have had a back up plan like hide some money or put a clause in her pre-nup (if they had one) to cover her in case he cheated. The whole thing is sad but at least she gets to stay in that fab house for a while longer. I doubt he will be able to sell it in the next 18 months.
@ Florida you are right 200% Usher has such a huge bitch streak in him, likely inherited from that evil, childish Mommy of his. She was on Oprah just being honorie and mean spirited, even on national television. So his foul character is a direct reflection of the one that raised HIM. I wouldn’t want my kids to take on that attitude from them and Usher needs help to change that learned bitchness. He is cruel and its catching up to him, look at his career now.
The still shots with the twisted mouths, hilarious!
Gorgeous home…I agree with you about the housing market, though. He should have listed it for $200,000 LESS than he purchased it for.
Tameka owns multiple businesses in the Atlanta metro area (Estella, Kangazoom, etc.), so hopefully those businesses will flourish and she will be able to secure her own crib. That way no man can ever take her home away from her again.
So what’s tha problem?
Mind ur got dam business its his house and he can do whatever he wants there not married anymore who says ur ex is ur responsibility move on
Exactly!!!!
U R SO RIGHT…… JUST MOVE ON…NO ONE WOULD HAVE TO TELL ME TWICE THAT THE PARTY AIN’T JUMPING LIKE IT USE TO……..HAVE SOME DIGNITY * FOR REAL
Mind your business on a gossip blog? Pot, kettle, black.
Seems like I read somewhere that Tameka will get half of what the house sells for. So if he sells the house for only 2 Million, that’s a million in her pocket. She should be able to buy something really nice with that. Something that would be HERS.
I hope that is true. Maybe the house should be listed at 4 million.

Sorry about the double post.
(in my Rick James voice) “COLD-BLOOOOODEDDDDDDD.” Usher needs to sit in a dark room and think, “Is this really healthy for my kids to know that I’m mistreating their mom, who is NOT an unfit parent?”
I totally agree! At some point no matter what his mother, girlfriend, and advisors may be telling him. He himself should , stop, look and listen. His career seems dead to me. He quit all of his real fans and now is losing the last few die-hard fans. I can’t stand men that do their kids mothers dirty!! I’m so surprised at him for all he’s done over this past year to this woman. I was so on his side when he loved her and I defended him when others didn’t. Now I can’t ride with him. He smashed her bridesmaids and now took her sons and to make matters worse he is selling their house! He is doing too much to her as If HE wasn’t the dog in the marriage. I love him and his music but his character is for the birds! Dayum Usher
She don’t give a shit about him. Why she he give a shit about her? Turn about is fair play!
Does Usher really care about mistreating the mother of his kids when he and his OWN mother have had issues. That’s the key….judge a man by how he treats his momma. If he dogged momma he will dog baby momma.
@Florida you are totally correct.
NOTHING about this is “FAIR”… Usher made his living singing and dancing to women(yet the one he swore before God he’d love, he treats like this), regardless why she married him and they’re divorcing, THIS IS WRONG! she’s buried a child, lost custody of 2, AND has had her home listed for sale… I feel sorry for Tameka as a grieving mother and divorcee…SHE NEEDS MORE PEOPLE!!!
@Devanne, no need to feel sorry for Tameka especially when you look at things from the spiritual side. It may seem as if her world is crumbling but I just see it as her "Going through to get to"(Her blessing). Sometimes God has to take those things and people out of your life for you to realize that he is the way and everything that the devil is using for bad don’t worry he will turn it right around for your good. She just needs to hold on and allow his promise to manifest.
We should feel sorry for Usher for the word says "Touch not my anointed, do my prophets no harm" I’m not sure what Tameka’s status is with God but at the end of the day we are all his children and everything that Usher is doing to tear this woman down will surely come back on him full fold.
Stay blessed Tameka I am praying for you.
That sounds nice and all but lets be real. This is a woman who is losing her two kids via the court system and has lost another child to death and a terrible accident on top of that. Nothing beautiful nor blessed about that. Unless God going to bring her another husband and 3 more babies, I’d say she is pretty bad off.
Some women would want to die after enduring such pain. What number failed marriage is this for Tameka? I think she should get the heck out of Atlanta because that environment is not good for her. Devil runs the ATL.
…..Can you read??? that has always been and will always be HIS house until he sells it…..why should he let her continue 2 live in HIS house 4 free??…she should take her portion of the $$ and get something that actually will be hers…..if it was the other way around you would not expect her 2 let him live in her house 4 free so why the double standard????
How do you know that she’s living "for free"?
How can this be assumed? You are a Tameka hater and are looking for the negatives or the assumed situation. Free why? How? I live in a regular house and have to fix stuff weekly. I’m sure that she pays for so much in that big ass palace. He doesn’t live there smh
I’m not a hater but I am logical and reasonable…..The point is that it’s HIS house and he can do what he please with it…..you still haven’t been clear on why he should let her "squat" in his mansion?????…oh I know what it is, there is NO logic and/or reason in the mindset of bitter, gold digging women…….
Operative word “HIS”. It is his house. If she is this independant woman, she doesn’t need his money or his house. She has lived off of two men for pumping out babies. Please heffa, get a house that YOUR income can afford. If she had not lost her son, would people even care that he took back HIS house?
you are so right nobody would be throwing this petty party for her he made the money he did all the work damn what has she done for herself…everybody wants to say be independent but tryna take a man for everything HE WORKED FOR SORRY CHARLIE NOT THIS TIME TEAM USHER ALL THE WAY
Totally agreed…lets this b a lesson to these so called independent women riding their rich man coatails
#GoodMove
Happens everyday. I know. She must choose to overcome this. I am praying for her and the kids. All will be well soon.
You conveniently keep leaving out the fact that it was in the divorce papers that they would sell the house and they would split the proceeds. This has nothing to do with the fact that she just lost her son or the recent custody case. Tameka had/has full knowledge that this would take place so there should be no surprise to anyone regardless of the time of year it is.
True, I wonder why that fact was left out.
I love this. Rarely does the man comes out on top during these divorces. Good for Usher and his judge!! Kudos!!
That is low down and dirty!!! Why is he being so vendictive?! I never saw him doing all these things but hey you never know what went on behind close doors because he is obviously mad about something. I mean he is treating her like she a shit!!
She should of had a nest egg somewhere
It’s his,she as a indenpendent women should have her own finances. This is where women in the industry get things fucked up,stop depended on these niggas money no matter how much they gettin or got. If anything use the money to gain and make into something for urself where u can say I don’t need shit goodbye. Usher earns what he got dancing and singing whatever,besides that shit don’t last forever.
Mean spirited…
GOOD!!! after how she called him an unfit horrible dad in court. The man was in tearz!!! GO USHER GO! I don’t feel sorry for tameka at all…She bit the hand that fed her!
And he still keeps selling records….hey did you guys see the new usher and ludacris video? I love usher
#teamusher…….allday no matter what
One thing he aint doing is "selling records" ….. This ninja aint even Gold with this new album ‘Looking For Myself" . That c.d came out in like the summer or spring time? His record sales have been low because Raymond versus Raymond didnt sell a lot neither. But yeah he does keep making records and duets but he must be using those mansions as storage bins.
LMAOOOO…Too bad TEAM USHER won’t run to the store to buy his cd as fast as they run to these posts about him. Damn shame, and you call yourself stans!
He could of waited after the holidays!He know his kids are attached to the same housing.Just show how spineless he is.If his father treated his mother like this he would be crying like a bitch saying how much he hate’s his daddy.But when your intentions are to be evil especially around the holiday season;you get it worst in return.He don’t know if he will wake up tomorrow with cancer and he’s being dirty like this.He could have did this back in the summer but he picks a time with in the holiday season to make matters worst.Also to spoil his own kids holiday spirit by being difficult with their mom’s.Little boy mentality.I guess that’s from not having a black father to raise him.
So not an Usher fan anymore. He’s acting like a fool. I feel sorry for Tameka. I hope she remains strong during all of this. Vengeance is mine said the Lord
Its crazy but it falls back on tameka cause when usher wanted to delay the custody battle cause of her sons passing but she said no. She just need to get it together.
Good for Usher. I mean they were married for 5 mili seconds and she thinks she deserves that house? No Ma’am. Tameka took advantage of Usher with entrapment and Schemes.I have no respect for any woman who will do that to a man.Its low and money Hungry. If she was smart she would have sat her BIG MOUTH ASS Down somewhere instead of all on #Twitter and Inviting News Reporters in the Mans house to Dog him.In his OWN HOUSE. Im not surprised.Your tried Usher now you got #TREATED Yea she just lost her son but she is so mentally unstable that All she thinks and Breaths is Usher and Stalking his fans and Girlfriend.Which by the way she can Dump her Too. Grace is to old for Usher. Usher needs someone his own age he can relate to and can grow old with. Not watch them grow old. Im just saying,Its not good to jump from one relationship to the next. Usher needs to find himself,By himself. Tameka needs to start dating and stop stalking her EX. ITS OVER Damnit …If you dont like my comment then #You cant handle the Truth. No Shade… #THETRUTH
CHI I do have a question…what makes YOUR thoughts…comments about a situation that you are not a part of the "truth"? You are assuming just like most…face that! Sounds like speculation just like everybody else. lol
@ Chicago: Usher had his say on the OWN network, so Tameka has the right to have her say on "Entertainment Tonight".
Lord, I truly wonder how you and some of the other anti-Tameka posters would behave if this very situation happened to you? Are you going to allow a high profile, rich star with millions of fans defame you in the media without fighting back? I’ll answer for you…..NO!!!!
Sorry for the Typos….
Oh and @Atlien I see you have it out for Usher. Sorry,URIV dont want you….
@chicago you may be sorry… but I’m not. Thanks tho…
It doesn’t fall on tameka. As usual, usher’s timing sucks ass.
People kill me telling a blogger to mind HER own damn business. You’re not smart enough to realize you’re on a gossip blog?
People hate the that this is also HER house that she has been raising her kids in. This is also the kids house but yes Usher has control over when the house goes on the market and based on who he has shown himself to be I am so not surprised. Many of you rent, live with your mama, baby mama/daddy, lover and name is know where on the deed or mortgage and that is still YOUR home…stop being so caught up in what you assume to be someone’s pain that you are blind to that. At this point Tameka, continue to trust and seek GOD and let the haters do what they do best. Once the house is sold take your money, go pay for you a place for your boys and begin to create new memories with them. I would no longer allow myself to be in the position where Usher could take ANYTHING from me. I know there are memories tied to the home but those memories will forever be in her heart. I will continue to pray for all people involved even Usher…on top today “running things” fall short tomorrow… The Devil has him right where he wants him…thinking he is in control. Better be careful Sir.
@ VAY: High five. You better preach.
You better speak that truth,Vay!I wish Tameka the best…And I don’t think I have had such little respect for a celebrity like this in a minute, Usher really showed his ass this time.
I love it!!!! Vay,you better preach!
I see Michelle is still riding Tameka’s dick. Lol Michelle that curse out Tameka gave you on twitter awhile back got you in check lol lol Only blogger who fuse with everyone on twitter..stupid ass!!!
If you continue to hate someone due to prior situations/events, and allow that hate to blind you to the objective reality that’s glaring you in the face, that makes you immature and limited. Y’all are coming after ATLien like SHE’S doing wrong, looking beyond the previous conflict and reporting things as she saw them. Think of this: If she’s now sympathizing with tameka after all the shit she’s thrown at her, and is rediculing usher as long as she’s been on his team, obviously she feels she has good reason, rather people agree or not.
@Stlchick
Why do you live in Atlien’s rear orifice? You should leave the Great Divide at some point. Otherwise you will suffocate and die a smelly death.
with that comment @SAYWHAT your the one what that’s being immature, The Irony!!!
Say what, why are you hear when you have such an opposing viewpoint? Do you have the ability to think beyond Usher’s dick?
The name is STLchick. Any person who knows 2×2 would know where the fuck I’m from.
Stop wasting my fucking time with your bafoonery. I have a bad toothache and I’m more than willing to take it out on a dumbass. Keep campaigning and your ass will get elected with the quickness.
Yeah Michelle I know you and tameka are cordial and all but u was just dragging her through the mud not to long ago. No matter what had happens, divorce, split custody-at the end of the day, life goes on.
And if you can identify somebody’ you don’t know house- (that statement seems a little odd to me) from pictures taken of their kids- you got so much more life to live.
There is A WHOLE LOT about this case, usher and tameka that we do not know
Lovely House !!! I’m so tired of this story…. Who cares…. The sad part about it is Michelle is on Tameka side n always has been since day one… She puts more of tameka side than usher side on her blog.. ppl that have blogs r regular ppl just like us with an opinion… Stop believing everything u read… this is her side n tameka side… u can clearly see she don’t like usher n her n tameka cool… Yeah her son died but this case was going on before that n if u feel like ur kids r with someone that doesn’t have their best interest in heart then no matter what happens life must go on.. in my opinion Tameka is all about money first court date was about her Sac’s card n not her kids… if u want to be with ur kids that bad u pick up ur shit n on to Paris too… With all this being said… no ones prefect there’s 3 sides to ever story n stop believing everything u read… if u don’t see r hear it urself then don’t believe it
stfu, your name is good advice.
LMAOOOO!
hahahahaha
It’s clear that atlien has a crush on Usher and wants him bad!! Notice when he was with Tameka she dogged her every chance she got for no apparent reason, now that Tameka is out of the picture(no longer has Usher), she jumps on Tameka’s band wagon and trying to crucify Grace every chance she gets. PAY ATTENTION ITS GLARING!!! Any woman in Usher’s life gets dogged and harassed by Atlien
Usher,you will pay for this! Tameka,dont worry because God will send you a MAN next time around!
She deserves everything she gets..she’s a money hungry gold digging rushed to have two kids with Usher cougar ass whore!!! Why wasnt she going after her ex,husband like that
YOU NEED TO TAKE SEVERAL SEVERAL SEATS SOMEWHERE! I cant with this comment…
They need to leave him alone he is by far the more stable one. Now if she would took the kids and the house like normal custody battles no one would be talking about it.
He is not being vengeance but she would have trying to control him with the kids. She didn’t have and didn’t want custody of her other kids so why she want or think she should get custody over these ones. God knows what he’s doing and those kids are taken care of. She need to get her life together first!
Did I miss something here??? How is it that Tameka may be kicked out of the house during the holidays?? The divorce decree says that Tameka has 60 days to move after the sale of the property, and the property was listed November 2nd.
60 days from the November 2nd date, provided that someone came forward with an all cash offer (which I highly doubt), that was accepted by Usher, is when people? Do the math!!
At the end of the day, I’m not a stan for either of them b/c I think each of them have a lot of *ish with them and, the chicken is just coming home to roost for both of them. Tameka just got her karma back first. Usher is next.
At the end of the day, you have two nasty people who both knew they were nasty people, who fell in love, and when the love was over they went for the jugular.
No sympathy from me here folks!
usher will always be a superduper dickhead 2 me
@VAY THIS IS NOT A HATING MATTER…NO ONE CARES ABOUT THE HOUSE…I have been a fan of UShers from Day One, I never liked Tameka From Day one as well.. I like Chili ,,His new Girl friend is Cool..But that Damn Tameka been doing to much since DAY ONE…Atleast Grace knows how to fall back and keep quiet..Thats why he is still with her she wants the man not the fame…Tameka is a old Compton ass Chick looking for the quick come up…The Trap you set is the one you shall fall into and thats #Bible look it up….. #TEAMUSHER
"THIS IS NOT A HATING MATTER…NO ONE CARES ABOUT THE HOUSE…I have been a fan of UShers from Day One, I never liked Tameka From Day one as well.. I like Chili ,,His new Girl friend is Cool"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Are you serious? You honestly dont know anything about any of these people including Usher. Talking about who cool hahahaha stooooooop it please! For every nasty thing you can say about Tameka there has been 5 put out there on Usher. That’s being real…
I am assuming you are speaking of Proverbs 26:27 no need for me to look it up I read the bible regularly. With that being said that scripture is also just as applicable to Usher! Which is why HE needs to watch how he handles the mother is his children…he (his camp) can start by stop feeding TMZ these stories. #FACT.
If we wants to sell the house then sell it…but just because you dont hear his voice behind all this madness dont mean he isnt the aurthor/speaking. #ANOTHER FACT AND for all the dirt he isnt spreading his COOL girlfriend is. #ANOTHER FACT I happen to know folks connected to him. #Last FACT I am speaking on this post. lol
@Vay…Look, preaching won’t change what’s happening….that is HIS house & it’s time 4 her 2 go….those are THEIR kids & they have 2 share them…..it’s HIS money & she no longer has access 2 it….let’s keep the bible out of this b/c anyone can use reason 2 make wickedness seem fair-seeming…..Tameka has another baby daddy so why doesn’t she go after HIM and HIS resources???….why didn’t she keep HIS last name……why doesn’t she go squat in HIS mansion…..the mother of his children also needs 2 be tactful in how she handles her child’s father….it works both ways…..ya’ll can preach all day but ur out of steam on this one…..she should take her cut & find herself a new man from which 2 dig gold/marry/torment/whatever…..and please remember that Jezebel went 2 church 2….
I think your comment should have been directed @Chi, that’s who brought up religion. ijs lol
yawn @lady A yawn everytime I try…yawn…to comment to you…yawn..I zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz…snores.
@Vay….Funny….I C everybody wants 2 be a comedian…..either way, I stand correct….Yawwwwnnnn is correct, especially when skimming over those whole books you write on here….I’m tired of this bull 2 but I do love good gossip so I keep coming back….sweet dreams….
Look girl you know we dont agree on this subject so why waste your time coming this way…clearly you like reading those books that I write which is cool just know that I dont read a thing that you put up on this matter…maybe you just need some attention…ok…Heeeeeeeey girl!! Well look you can STAND correct or sit down all wrong just do it up there or down there. oh wait…yawn…I feel it coming…yawn…zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
@ Vay…ur right, all we can do is agree 2 disagree….and I said "skim" not "read"….there is a difference….u don’t like my posts b/c women don’t like 2 hear the truth about things, which is why they usually band 2gther with women of similar mindsets 2 affirm them in their "golddiggerness & wrongness" (like a lot of the ones who post on this site, particularly this issue, 4 example)….but moving on….ditto 2 what u said…..NOW u can have the last word girl…..;-/

——————–
You know when people put "LOL," but they’re not really LOL, they just say it because they find something amusing? Not the case here…
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!
LadyA, if you think that I’m a golddiggerbecause you think Tameka is one and because I find fault with Usher’s conduct in this matter, I must say that I think that’s very narrow-minded of you. I agree that some people do gravitate towards their likeness…that’s the only way I can account for the rihanna/nicki minaj/nene/marlow fans out there. But I was raised not to expect or take anything from a man. A man has never paid a bill or done anything for me other than open my door. And if he’s slow doing that, he needs to get the f out of my way lol
I dont think that Usher’s ex wife is from Compton, I believe she’s from Northern California, big difference. Grace "his new girlfriend" looks like a shoe sole in the face, so she should be hidden and keep "quiet" because he knows she will be pulverized. Wasn’t she the jumpoff anywayz?? I believe so and side chicks turned main chick, should shut up always.
I really don’t see the "trap" that was set by Tameka, what marrying a man and having kids? Is that a trap? He married this woman fair and square, he proposed, she said yes, end of story.
The "trap" is that Usher stans dont know their place and think they had a right to pick who he should be with. Folks still riding for CHili and dont know NOTHING about this chick besides the fact that she damn near 50 and still has baby hair.In the mean time Usher is probably two pumps from his junk exploding. A hot mess I tell ya!
Haha. Wow. You said it!
I said I wasn’t going to comment..but damn you and the baby hair!lmao
"two pumps from his junk exploding"
OMG…..Vay, that is the first time that I have ever heard this phrase, and I am taking this phrase from you to use. I love it. LMBO!!!
Me too, ALM, and the baby hair? Damn, you’re on a role, Vay.
Uh oh. Better watch it. Don’t wanna be accused of being in your orifice too.
Damn younguns lol.
Its obvious too that Grace is very comfortable in her skin and her roles. I always read something about Grace not being cute…Tameka even tweeted it before "Grace is never cute", but I dare Tameka to come out of the house with her natural hair and no make-up in just regular clothes…she would look a hot mess. Me too for that matter. But my point is Grace has money too, but it is obvious that material things is not what she stands for. She looks like she likes simplicity. Maybe that’s what Usher finds attractive. And her body is banging! She is very fit.
GRACE IS DATING USHER (HAVING SEX AND GETTING PAID to be his manager) HUNNY THATS IS NOT SIMPLE LIVING! lol and so what tameka and grace are different that doesnt make tameka less of a woman because she likes hair and make up. and clothes is clothes (whats regular suppose to look like) lol she is a stylist!!!!. and pictures can be very deceiving any body can look simple on a picture,. WAIT HOLD UP!!! GRACE IS THAT YOU?!?!
Kim says: Her body is banging! And She is very fit.
I’m saying: you need eyeglasses girl!!
I saw a picture of Grace coming out the airport with Usher and she looks like an Oompa Loompa, fat at the knees even< Bangin’ body? Where on the Biggest Loser??? She is very badly built, fat lower body and small up top and she looks like she has buggy eyes. I guess she passes the paper bag skin test (color) but even the skin looks suspect, I digress on the body or cute anything comment.. I think Usher must like something else, like her throat maybe? Homeslice is nothing to gander at.
it takes two to tangle..both of them has their faults..neither of us know them personally..she didn’t make them kids by herself..pain and suffering to bring those kids n world and looses one..all the negativety bitches..can go to hell..cause usher should have more sense than that..give it to her..let her have that..shyt!!! he aint GOD!!..he better start opening up his eyes how he treatn her ..cause that..KARMA..”"that we all forget bout comes back2 u..any parent that lost a child or has a heart!. knows what Tameka ..grieving going thru..and a woman should neva b without anything ..dealing with these men..she shoulda had something he couldn’t take back..the wrong man feels cause he has money and all the material thngs..he can control you and ur steps of walkn left or right..the humiliation she gettn isnt justified..if she woulda paid attention to his behavior ..she wouldn’t had to worry bout usher taken shit!!!.she been sittn lovely like the ex women wifes of ..kobe..JORDAN..SHAQ ..i thnk magic johnson wife also..not sure..but anyway ..ask them..what n why they ass wasnt going to leave them with them kids high n dry….all better take ..lessons ..cause a man or a female..can care bout ur dam feelings ..if u was in their shoes u do it also..so stop judging..and faking them lies..money changes u somewhere in the mix…”ijs”..
Knock it off!!!
Still a tuff situation but,I think Tameka should’ve had a plan "B" and the details were clear(back then)during the divorce.You cant let a man be your AIR! You were breathing before Usher!Maybe he’s trying to erase most of his married life and maybe you should do the same.The only thing you have control over is your own deeds and thoughts and it should never be placed in the hands of anyone else unless you’re disabled.Please,rebuild,learn and move on.
I believe either myself or someone else stated already indefinitely that usher was gonna sell that house. It was in the comments section. It’s baffling to me that people think its wrong for him to do so? Is it not his home? Did he not pay for it with HIS money? There is no reason why he shouldn’t be able to sell that house. Tameka needs to live within her means. I know she’s in debt and her businesses arent doing the best but that is NOT Usher’s issue. Tameka has to accept her responsibility in her extremely less than fortunate luck. Maybe she can move back to Oakland, maybe she will find a cheap condo or apartment in ATL. Who knows. She’s a very materialistic woman so I know she’s a lil butt hurt right now, hell most women in atl are. That flossing, stunt mentality gets you nowhere but in debt and usher isn’t entitled to pay for a house that he nor his children will live In and the upkeep is way too expensive to be paying for while somebody is laying up doing nothing with their son, which is Ryan in this case. And the home is nice, so trust somebody will buy it. Tameka better be looking for somewhere to stay and stop being so proud. That woman she was clowning with the fake Loubou’s has somewhere to stay, in a minute she won’t.
It’s so so sad to think how some people has lost their soul and sense of kindness toward one another. They say money is the roots of all evil. But in some cases it’s the people!
I don’t understand why everyone is a Usher HATER. 1st off they are DIVORCED she obviously didn’t ask for the home in the settlement. Before all this drama started she said she was scared about him selling the house, so this didn’t not come out of the blue. Why get mad at the man when she has known for a while that he was going to sell HIS HOME.
Once you divorce it’s not his job to make sure she has a place to live. She ain’t new to the divorce game. Remember folks she’s been down this path before.
Yes I feel bad she lost her son, but don’t let that cloud what’s actually going on. She CHOSE to sit around and wait for that man to tell her to move out. Let’s keep it all the way real.
It’s time for to put on her big girl panties and be a mom and self sufficent woman. Hell many of us do it every damn day.
I wish I would wait for a man to put me out, honey I would have had my own spot before it even got this far.
@Joy…that’s a very good point….if she knew this day would come why wasn’t she prepared???…..when you have kids you HAVE 2 think ahead & have a backup plan…..I don’t know one person-male or female- who’s gonna let someone live in their house rent free……the only people who seem angry & shocked are bitter axx women……
He really hates her.
Him and his army of fanatics. I see why black women have the problems they have. They love dogs more than they do each other.
Exactly. We black women will take up for a trifling ninja till the end of time, and turn our backs on each other in a millisecond. And black men play up on that, hence this situation. Usher isn’t even trying to do and damage control or PR stunts with his foolishness, he and his BLACK MOTHER AND BLACK G/F are all out in the open and even had the nerve to sit down another black women to discuss it-all because he knows we show no loyalty. These same clueless broods will continue to buy his music.
*do damage
@ stlchick….actually I think Black women have the problems they have b/c they sit around & get bad advice from other black women…..a bunch of people in the same boat can’t help bail each other out (ain’t got a man, can’t keep a man, got a lying, cheating axx man, can’t get along with the man they do have, etc…..)…stop sitting around getting & giving bad advice 2 & from each other & most wouldn’t have the problems they have……but I guess that’s 2 much like right….they love dogs more than they love themselves….ijs
That’s true too. Unfortunately, we’re both right.
Ok….emotions and like and dislike of either parties, here’s the facts. The divorce settlement allowed Tameka to remain rent free in the house, knowing that Usher owned it and had the right to sell it. With the alimony and child support Tameka recieved, is it out of the realm of possibility that she would at some point be expected to provide for her own housing? Between her earnings from her businesses and her child support, providing a home for herself and her other kids other than the 2 with Usher is still her responsibility. Usher in fact allowed her to remain in the home for 3 years post divorce. In those 3 years, is it unfathomable that she would have been able to get herself a place to stay?! Is Usher now responsible for paying her the support and managing it for her as well?! Seriously, where does Tameka’s responsibility begin? Enough of the guilt. Even before the loss of her son, Tameka should have had sense enough to prepare and be ready for the house to be sold. I don’t give her any credit at all.
Love it! Well said! 3 years rent free and he’s wrong??? Plus she profits from the home selling as well? What’s wrong with these ppl? She shouldn’t have anything to say about this. I wish some1 would provide 4 me and my family basically the past 5 years including the time they were together allowing me to save my money. I would be thankful. At some point she had to know this was coming.
Her responsibility should begin when her heart is a little more healed from her son and HIS SONS brother passing away! It only been a few months!!! This bitch boy couldnt wait until after the New Year or 6months??? I mean damn, he’s being a selfish asshole and I will NEVER buy another album, disc, DVD, mug, tshirt or ticket from this insensitive assfuck again.
She hasnt said anything that Ive read or seen, so how can you assume that she doesn’t have another plan or house? Maybe she does but if she wants to stay in the house her baby lived in, his rich, poor in character mean self should let her. Enough is enough.
@Brenda….I can’t BELIEVE anyone would believe what you wrote….that is B.U.L.L.S.H.Y.T and ya’ll know it….Kiles passing had nothing 2 do with Usher & she has other children that are NOT his…..it’s her responsibility 2 make her own way….she’s getting a lot more child support than most women who have kids for ‘regular" men……if she wants that house then she can BUY it from him…..now that’s fair….it’s time 4 her 2 go…enough IS enough……this is what happens when women think with emotion instead of reason……
Thank you Brenda. Some people can be so heartless.
I have to say, I’ve been very vocal on past usher posts regarding this case which made me dislike him after being a MAJOR fan of his. But I must say this is the ONE area that I agree with Him on.
Even as a single mother myself, I don’t feel that tameaka should be entitled to that house. Do I wish the man-boy had of manned up an bought her a cheaper home (after the divorce) that fits HER income, in HER name, that she can afford the taxes/upkeep on? ABSOLUTELY!! I believe a real man with that type of income would do that. It’s already been said that she got very little from the prenup and the child support is wack.
What’s really sad now is that, that is her last home with KIle, and I know some grieving parents tend to keep their deceased child’s room the way it was before death. That is so heartbreaking to me.
I read about two years ago I think that she still owns her previous home from before they got married. I wonder if that is still true?
FTR I still think usher is an azz who is disrespectful and nasty to the mother of his children, I just don’t agree with the majority about the house issue. I also think this whole house thing was a way of him controlling her, or he would have sold years ago. Kile aside, I think it might be healthier for her to move out.
But as you pointed out Janet, and as I didabove, it’s the TIMING. He couldn’t have waited til the 1st of the year? Is this NOT the first holiday since Kile’s passing? (and by the way, any person who says, "I feel sorry about her losing her son, BUT…" is an idiot!) You’re right about the grieving. Now she has to deal with this too. He’s not hurting for the money…didn’t he just land a new gig judging a silly tv singing competition? Those tears he cried on Oprah for his dearly departed stepson dried up real quick, didn’t they?
Stlchick
I have to be honest, when I was writing this post I was speaking on my POV regarding how i felt the house issue all along and not thinking/talking specifically about the holidays. Even after I started seeing his true colors and looking into more than what mainstream media was telling us I still felt the same about the house.
I’m not sure if that puts me with the idiots that say , "I feel sorry about her losing her son, BUT…" but is definitely don’t mean to come across that way.
On the timing I absolutely agree with you on, I just have a different view overall when it comes to the house. It was an oversight, but the holidays are the WORST time for a grieving parent.
He truly lost me for good when Oprah asked him if he respected her and he basically said no. He was already on my sh@t list before that. One way or the other he’ll get his tho
I feel sorry that Tameka lost her son but this case has nothing to do with that. This case was started long before she lost her son. Tameka had her day in court. Things were presented in court that we do not know about.I don’t believe that some judge would put her life long work and career online for Usher Raymond. There are a lot of things that have not been reported in the blogs. Such as the stations here are reporting that Tameka was paid for her half of the house when the divorce was final. Which means she has known for over two years that she had to move and she has chosen to not find a house. It also means that she has been living rent and mortgage free for over 2 years. I think that I would have no problem finding another house if I have been living mortgage free for over 2 years and not to mention the fact that she has already been paid for her half of the house.
How has she gotten paid for half a house that hasn’t sold yet? Only a dummy would pay someone before they even know what their going to get from a house.
I wouldnt watch that news station anymore….
This blog is so f@$%ing bias one min u bashing Maneka now ya’ll all in her corner holding her feeble hands. Get da F@#k outa here!!! If Usher wants to sell HIS house he can its his money dat bought it, he wanted his kidz now he’s an asshole all ya’ll F@#kin wanna be’s just read these fake ass stories written by someone who think they know these celebs and ya’ll believe. Watever tameka and usher is going thru only they kno the truth. I think more fathers should fight these bitter ass females to be in their kidz life like usher did.F@#k ya’ll who think differently!!!!!!!
@Jamrocksfinest that wasn’t "a minute" ago… in fact it’s been several years. I’ve addressed that issue SEVERAL times in previous post so feel free browse like the legions of "fake azz wanna be’s" who read this site just like you….
And In That Fucking Order!!!
All these ppl on here going after Usher bcuz he’s selling his house that he doesn’t even live in anymore, but has allowed her along with her other children to live in long after he was gone. How many of yall would allow your ex to live in your place that you bought with your own money for 3 years after yall have seperated/divorced??? None of you I’m sure. Why should he have to buy her a smaller home? Would you? She’s his ex and his job is to provide for his kids..not Tameka especially now that he has primary custody. Talking bout yall feel sorry for her bcuz she being "put out" but obviously she ain’t hurting bcuz she’s always raved about her business and how she’s not a gold digger..well now yall will get to see how well she lands on her feet.
That strange I haven’t seen her "rave" about anything. I would certainly BUY MY EX WIFE AND MOTHER OF MY KIDS A HOUSE PAID IN FULL IF I WAS AS RICH AS USHER!!!!! Absolutely, without blinking or hesitation. Thats the point of amassing fortune, working and making a gadzillion dollars. If my family isn’t taken care of, then why am I doing any of it???? That’s a selfish mentality altogether. I wouldnt take care of her for life but I would make sure that she was straight with my sons, hell yes! To be any other way is wrong and selfish. He is rich off of her and Chilli’s heartbreak anyway, most of his songs are about his relationships and the drama surrounding them. Mostly break up songs, so yes I sure would. he is a selfish turd, thats all.
BW…well said by a man who understands what being a man is! People are so damn stuck on Tameka and what he is doing for her when this woman still has to provide a home for HIS kids. Their father is RICH and standard of living should not change just because their mother isnt annd YES I feel it should go both ways if tables were turned. It really shouldnt be about Usher OR Tameka at this point. In a sitatuation most PEOPLE couldnt afford what he has done but in his case it really shouldnt even matter. The reality is for 3 years Usher had no problem with this arrangement…why should we?!
In general I agree with what you said except the standard of living part. I’m of the opinion of he should’ve put her up in modest home, free and clear of his name, settled the child support and kept it movin. He has the income to do so, and his kids wouldn’t feel a major difference between the homes. I don’t feel like her or the kids should have to drastically change their standard of living, but being realistic unless she could afford the upkeep and taxes on that home she shouldn’t live in THAT particular home. Now if she can afford the 40,000 in taxes (public record) every year then I stand corrected and have no problem admitting i was wrong and that he should have just paid off the house and put it in her name. Otherwise both of them will always have something over each others head,especially him.
She shouldn’t have to worry if he is keeping up with the household bills, and he shouldn’t have the ammunition to use that against her.
Now ofcourse these things should have been done soon after the divorce was over, which makes me wonder why he waited three years to make something happen.
The ONLY reason Tameka is getting so much sympathy is bcuz she lost Kyle which is horrible and I can only imagine but one thing doesn’t have anything to do with the other. This battle was going on long b4 Kyle passed and as it was previously stated she chose to proceed with the case right after.
shut up!
Like you know them personally!You sound like a low self-esteem chick! Hes Usher, he can kick me in my face or punch me in the throat,as long as hes Usher. SHUT UP!
U know Im really not liking Usher right now I feel like he being a bully!!!
Usher marking the house up for a $200k profit is not uncommon in the real estate market; it allows for negotiations. He probably wants to just break even for the property. That 101, Michelle.
Usher isnt selling his sons’ home, he’s selling HIS property. The boys have a place to go…to Usher’s OTHER house. Tameka would need a place to live whether she had Usher’s boys or not. She failed to plan inancially because she thought having Usher’s children would shore up her financial future. Uh no ma’am. I don’t know one woman who doesn’t have some money stashed in case of emergency (need a place because marriage didn’t work out or better known as ASSURANCE money). She had access to a lot of resources, but squandered the opportunity.
While the death of her son was tragic, it’s a Red Herring. She didn’t plan, for whatever reason.
Usher is setting precedent for other fathers and he should be commended for that, not ridiculed. Tameka’s reality is not mine, nor that of most ex-wives and/or mothers.
…failed to plan *financially…aww whatever I’m typing with one finger on my iPad sorry about the typos and such.
What a bastard. Remember Usher what goes around comes around.
This may be a blessing in disguise. So long as she is in the house, Usher and his influence loom over her even more than it already has. Tameka was a pretty good stylist, and honestly if she really took a moment to not focus on Usher and the random foolery their relationship has cycloned into, she could likely build a credible business and make a good enough living on her own to go back, fight and win custody of her children because she was never found to be unfit.
She already has at least 3 credible businesses: Estella, Estella Home, and Kangazoom.
I am neither a fan of Usher or Tameka…I mean, I was a fan of Usher back in the day but watching this whole messy thing play out in the media has really cause me not to be as intrigued with him as I once was..that and his music became a little to housey for me. That being said, Tameka has been diagnosed with a mental disorder that she admittedly stopped taking the medication for….not for nothing, but we all heard of those women who do crazy shit to the children to spite the father…no one wants that to be the case here but let’s just call a spade a spade…she is a little on the crazy side. Next, this home belongs to Usher and he can sell it if he wants too. There is no reason why he had to continue to provide such a lavish roof over Tameka’s head. Here in Atlanta, people tend to live way outside of their means and a lot of these women/men have no backup plan for when the gravy train stops coming in…their bad. Designer labels are nice to have but definitely not a necessity when your means of income are shaky…and for God’s sake, realize that this is the beginning of a new era where the judicial system is not going to always rule in favor of the mother because she pushed the baby out…they are going to put the baby with whom they deem most fit so for all the groupies out there thinking that spitting a baby out from a celeb is going to be their come up, take heed. Any who, I hope she comes out of this stronger and wiser because all though Grace is damn there geriatric, Tameka ain’t no spring chicken and she should have known better.
Very well said.
Grace is working for Usher so that means Usher is paying Grace salary to be his manager. The only difference here is that Tameka is the mother of his children and was devoted back in the days to be a mom to their kidz and put the styling on hold while Usher was working around the Globe. Grace however had already children so in order to get full control of Usher she became his manager instead. So of course she will keep herself in the background as long as the money are coming in and at the same time living the high life with one of the most hottest superstar. Grace will never have it as good as she does now. She knows this and therefore I think she will gard her post well.
let’s hope he stays with this chick. I can’t take any more readings about obsessed or possessed girlfriends of his. I believe Grace will be no different if he dumps her lol
Well said, Francoise. Can’t believe people are riding for Grace. What, is Paris Jackson too young, or something?
@ New2daA: What is the name of this mental illness that you are so sure of?
I would like to know the name as well. I never heard that she was diagnosed with anything that’s definitely news to me.
IT’s called depression because you realize that you married a man that is running around your house sticking his "pebis" (as my 2 year old calls it) in every hole in the wall and crack in the floor looking for his next thrill! Yep…I just got depressed thinking about it. hahaha
Whoever Grace is she is playing the back ground, if she is the girlfriend now he needs to hide her old, homely looking, UNpretty self. Shes just not a looker to have outside of the house period. Tameka was his wife and is a pretty brown woman, he wasn’t ever trying to hide her out or cover their relationship up. He hiding this new senior citizen out like the plague… I see why. I agree Tameka doesn’t have to have such a lavish home at all BUT he is being a bitch because he just randomly decided to put the house on the market right AFTER the court case??? Really Usher? Bitch boy at best. This makes the whole custody case even MORE suspect and its exposes his reasoning completely. I will be Team Chris Brown to the end, at least he and Rihanna made good after he beat her, Rihanna wasnt even his wife or kids mother!!! Usher is acting like a complete jerk and God will take it all away, he just doesnt realize. I dont believe the "meds" talk or crazy b.s, that the speculation with all custody cases and by all men that pull this wack stunt.
I think Usher will do the right thing and buy tameka a house she can afford to take care of. Plus his children needs a home to go to when visting their mom.I don’t believe he will leave her homeless.
I feel sorry for Tameka regarding the lose of her son and the custody battle regarding the little one, BUT this whole thing about her staying in the home and Usher is an ass for “putting her out” is on her too. This women wasn’t even DIVORCED from Ryan when she started dating Usher. You have to finish a chapter of life before you start a new one (finalize your divorce first then start fresh with a new relationship). The whole union was messy from the beginning. Tameka knew he was no good, and watched him talk crazy to his mom (behind the music, Usher going HAM on his mom while Tameka sat on the bed in the hotel room). Keep in mind she was his stylist so she knew what he was about, yet still decided to marry him. If you decide to be with someone who you KNOW have monogamous issues and is a complete ass then that is on you. If I remember correctly either Tameka or Usher said when they first started working together they didn’t get along (didn’t like each other). If the divorce states the home can be sold, you better believe a plan B should take affect right after the divorce! Instead she was flying around the world taking pictures of her living the “life” and showing off her red bottoms via twitter. Just because he has money doesn’t mean YOU have money, take a lesson from those Hollywood exes on VH1, once it’s over so are your benefits. You can imagine the upkeep of the home and regular maintenance on the property. She got with him right after the Confessions Album so money was different then compared to know. Sorry but this whole home situation could have been avoided if she would have just got her own spot. I think since Usher knows he gets the kids 11/20 why not place the home up for sale since they are no longer in that home. Hate it or not, this would make sense if it where me.
Hope Usher his mother and every mistress and otherwise involved in bringing this woman so much pain and grief are served boiling water in hell. I dream of this day!
I was a champion of their relationship back when. However, homegirl has to move on. The entire post is slanted. The title of the post ‘takes kids and house from ex.. just in time for thanksgiving’ sure does draw the reader in. But then goes on to say there is clause that says she has 60 days after the sale to move. Doesn’t sound like taken just in time for Thanksgiving to me. Child…
Women need to learn that the feminization of poverty is real. We can not allow our well being to be tied to the success or love of someone else(husbands, boyfriends and etc). I think my grandmother was right when she said, baby always have your own because no one can take that from you.
"I think my grandmother was right when she said, baby always have your own because no one can take that from you."
Yes. Your grandmother was a wise woman.
I have no idea what to make of this whole debacle. So many good points have already been made, no need to be redundant. I honestly can see if from both point of views.
He’s the douchebag of the year, the douchebag of the yyyyeeaaaarrrrrr!!!! *singing Usher voice*
This Is Why you don’t, Screw the #HELP Just to much Drama.Its sad Usher has had such a Succesful Career and here comes Tameka with all This Compton baby mama Drama..Get over it already.At the end of the day she should have stayed under the radar, and played it cool-You get more Bee’s with Honey.Take notes from Grace #ThatisAll Move on Have some Dignity and Self-Respect Enough is Enough- Oh and @Atlien I’m Only SORRY that Your so Mad at Usher because he clowned you in Atlanta…Lol I Know..
I really feel bad did tameka but she helped to dig this grave!! Everybody keeps saying usher will gets his … But uhmm it looks like tameka is on the receiving end of that bish karma !! She isn’t anything nice I know trust and believe I met her myself she needs to move on!! Point blank period
I can read and it specifically states that she doesn’t have to move out of the home until 60 Days after it’s sold. And it’s still on the market as we are commenting. Tameka may be in this house for another year or two. So there you have it she has a home for the holidays. Peace and Blessings!
We all know Usher is a bitter b*tch and there’s nothing we can do about that but speak about it. I for one will not be giving him any more of my hard earned money and I’m sure he doesn’t care. You’re a punk the way you are treating the mother of your children Usher.
She should be wary. He could sell the house to someone affiliated with him at a discount. If they split the proceeds, and she has no vote on the sale value, then she’s really screwed. Tameka needs to acknowledge her bad choices. She should have never left her husband for this turd, she should have never married an ahole that would embarrass you by calling off the wedding 12 hours before and finally why marry a man in his lawyer’s office. He didnt value her. And now that he’s tired of her, he’s tossed her like trash. Tameka also needs much better lawyers and friends. If the Georgia courts are so biased against her, she could have easily had this heard in Cali or another jurisdiction. But unfortunately she’s not too smart. And Usher’s really angry with her for reasons we may never know. So she’s done unless she can make some money to fight back or finds a way to befriend him again.
Sincere question. How could she have had her case heard in another state or jurisdiction if they both resided in GA and their divorce/child support occurred in GA?
I don’t question her intelligence one bit but I do question his integrity a lot. She’s dealing with an azz who has a lot of money and nationally known.
Please remember that regarding her and her first ex husband no one will ever know the truth of how that went down but usher was right there with her…. People forget he had a hand in this too.
You move states and get it heard elsewhere. That’s what smart folks do, but you need good legal guidance and to turn your brain on so you can make good choices. I don’t think Tameka is smart and I think her circle lacks good advisors. Fighting custody battles is costly. And typically, the person with the most money wins. It’s pretty simple. If you have less money or don’t have grounds too fight ( eg child sexual abuse or family violence), you have to consider jurisdiction. Many people do this — establish residence elsewhere. She’s "a stylist " so this would have been easy to do. Since the custody matters are resolved with her other child, she really had no barriers. To give you a celebrity example, Katie Holmes did this following advice from counsel. I personally know of others who have done the same. Nonetheless, if I were her, I would eat some humble pie or crow and play nice with Usher. Time to make some smarter choices. And she should use social media for business purposes only. Folks know everything she thinking and doing by reading her twitter. It’s being used against her and she fails to understand.
yes because Katie Holmes and Tom cruise had a home in new York prior to the divorce so it was not hard to establish residence. Also Katie was the one that filed once she proved her residence was in NY.
Likewise usher is the one that started this case in the GA courts so there is no way tameka could have up an moved and established residence after he already started the case. That doesn’t even make sense, she had no control over the case and she was not the petitioner unlike Holmes was.
I know all states are different but when I had to go for custody, we had to file in my county where my child lived because me and her father lived in different cities.
I just have a few questions…maybe these TEAMUSHER folks can give me some answers…
1. If Tameka is so very unfit, why is Usher just now filing for full custody years later?
2. If he wanted her out of this house so very bad, why is he just now selling?
3. If he is so in love with Grace, why is out to get Tameka?
4. Why are you all assuming she has no plan b?
Wait..I think I have the answers..1 and 2 are pretty obvious-sounds like a man whose coochie supply got cut off. So now we taking kids and selling houses cause you can’t slang that thang on the slick anymore?Insecurity at its best. 3 is very clear,too..Because in some twisted and crazy way, Usher is not over Tameka, Say what you want, but this lil boy is acting like a woman scorned. A real man who got done the way he "claims" he was, will pick up his face and move on, not looking back. And for the record, Tameka is no dummy-if you all think she doesn’t have her stash together, you are certified crazy. This woman was about her business before and after Usher-why in the world would she not be okay w/o him? Stop assuming she "needs" him, hunty. Women are so very hateful-instead of judging her, pray for her peace of mind and stability thru out this mess. I have never been a Tameka fan, but wrong is wrong, and this ninja Usher is dead ass wrong.
For everybody who’s making these negative comments about Usher I’m sure you have experienced a friend or family member that has gone through some nasty divorce. I mean really ugly situations that have existed. Not only that, we don’t know what really happened between the two of them. We can only go by what the media puts out for us to read or see. i.e., Look at the title to this column, Usher Raymond Takes Kids and House from Wife Tomeka Just In Time for Thanksgiving. Demonizing???

Nope. A swing and a miss.
Although this is off the subject, what is this that I’m hearing about Kim from that housewives show making some comment about Cascade being ghetto?! I don’t watch that shit cause none of those whoes r from Atlanta and yes I spelled whoes the way that I’m thinking of it.
People kill me… Trying to b brand new!
THE REAL HOUSEWIVES OF ATLANTA WOULDN’T BE CAUGHT DEAD MAKING FOOLS OUT OF THEMSELVES LIKE THAT AND YES KIM, MOST OF THEM LIVED AND STILL LIVE IN HISTORIC CASCADE.
Gurl, U tried it!!!

@suthernHummingBird Usher don’t want that wore out old coochie Girl,Bye lol Like he hard of for woman lol #NOT All the woman he could have-Maybe he is sick of her twitter account antics -Like the rest of us-Or maybe it was Inviting Media in HIs HOMe to Dog him out-Where she tried to five her side of the story-Ummm Thats fine tell your side,But,Look at the Address that’s #UshersEstate Tameka Tryed that man like a lame and she got #TREATED Tameka handles Usher like he a average man-U cant do that-This mans life is in the Media and u run to them-No Matter what it was a better way to handle her hurt and anger it’s called #MovingON He traveling and Laid up with Grace and she still venting on Twitter- #imOverIt
Ush, I know that you have a lot of time of ur hands now that you are being forced to cancel tours (low sales),and you can sit around all day and bullshyt because no one is needing you in the studio to record yet another rejected Chris Brown song(stay in your lane, you old enuff to be his daddy), but please just stick to silently trolling this site and not commenting on any of my posts unless you implement the English language.
Hahaha Right¡¡¡ No one is checking for an Usher song these days, have you heard Ludacris try the sell-out music with him? It sound like all Usher techno punk songs, Usher need to sit in dark corner like another person wrote and think. He is really a dog man, this woman lost a child this past summertime and he wants to sell their house months later?? That’s cruddy sh**, she probably hasn’t even been in his room yet! What a heartless pussy??!!!! Just the thought of her having to pack her babys room just made me mad. He is a dick fa reals. Logging off pissed now!!!
I meant like he is hard up for a woman – #Typo
Not five #Tell I need to proofread
Yes, plz and ty. And btw,"He traveling and Laid up with Grace"-you are so wrong for this vision, thats just plain disturbing.
Janet- he owned a home in ny — not her. She did not nor was ny their primary residence. Owning a home somewhere doesn’t make you a resident of that state. She actually filed from a new rental property. She could have made that move in a number of states, including her parent’s residence. With good counsel, you can make great decisions and achieve the best outcome. Again, if I were her, I would make nice with Usher and move forward. She’s not prepared to fight the war.
I stand corrected, Katie did file from a new residence but the key is that she moved first and THEN filed, and cruise was not able to file in Cali because of that.
My point is that you were calling tameka all kinds of dumb for not doing the same thing when she could not have done do. Usher started the petion in GA, also she has 3 business and two other children at the time. It wouldnt have been easy for her to just up and move.
I don’t know if you have children so maybe it’s easy to tell someone to stop fighting for theirs, but most people would fight until there’s nothing left, especially when she wasn’t proven unfit
Per the divorce decree they agreed upon this so I pray Meek and the kids find something suitable on their own. So that this won’t be always dangling over her head. Different strokes for different folks but I wouldn’t even want his last name after al this mess. It’s called a time and a place. Again he has the right but it seems the timing never is.
Please somebody cry me a river about this woman..enough already. Let me get this straight..They are DIVORCED right? Check. She got her own business? Check. This is HIS house to start with? Check again. Why don’t this thristy chick move on?? People want to dog the man for her living in a house SHE NOT PAYING FOR?? Really? Now I hate what is going on with the kids but damn she still trying to use his last name and people seem to be ok with this?? Really again. Cmon she need to move out like other EX wives would do and get her own spot. Hell why is everyone upset about him selling this house that she is nursing? cmon folks lets keep this real..she need to move on.
Typical man talking @ Franklin, Usher is a rat and so are you. She was his stylist for many years and his wife more recently. She had his kids and gave up her career, you think its OK for him to mistreat his kids mother??! This shows the asshole mindset you men all have. Yes she is the EX wife, but she has also been embroiled in a case for custody of her kids with him and I know that is unreasonably expensive. Usher is trying to drain her and take all she has, I hope she doesnt go on a rampage against his faggot ass, he is a super bitch for this whole ordeal. he has lost many fans, namely ME!!! I used to wait in line for Usher shows, cd’s, etc…
wow Benni..such harsh words. lmao. Listen all I’m saying is when you become an EX, you don’t get to keep ALL the perks of a wife. I feel for the woman when it comes to the kids situation,but you don’t get to stay in a house THAT’S NOT YOURS..where do they do that at??? Move out and get your own spot. A real woman will pick herself up and move on. Black women are stronger than this. They been DIVORCED for more than a few years so cmon now she knew he was doing this. Not like she just found out yesterday. IJS..no other black woman would be like this..she need to move on and handle her business.
Well said Franklin…when you get into a relationship with someone who is doing better than you and has more than you the outcome of the relationship ending is going to go one of two ways…you leave doing a little better financially, or your leave with what you came with…hope for the best but plan for the worse. Yes, she is the mother of his children and they were married…but since they are divorced and have been divorced, she needs to get rid of that sense of entitlement. None of us know what is going through Usher’s head or what is causing the both of them to be so vile towards each other so all we can do is speculate…however, I have to question her motives for marrying him in the first place…definitely since when they started dating she was still married to her ex-husband. Yes…it take two to tango, but Usher wasn’t married..just like her, he saw opportunity and jumped on it. Yes, I feel sorry that she lost her son, I wouldn’t wish that anyone, but so did Usher at one point which is why he wanted the trial postponed so that she can mourn the lost of her child…she is the one that insisted it continued…her bad. It’s merely bad timing, but it is her own fault. Had she postponed the hearing, this whole thing wouldn’t be going down so close to the holidays. As a mother, I would be damned if I allowed anyone to continued to make a spectacle out of me….she take the house, the last name etc….just leave me with my pride. And finally, I would have been happy with the 8 grand in child support a month. How the hell is that not enough to take care of two kids…definitely if the ex is still paying for the house? Get the f*ck outta here with that needing 11k. Greed is the devil in red bottoms I tell ya!!!
Just waiting on the tell all book, start to finish.
Well he let her stay there way past when she was supposed to vacate. If she likes the place so much, buy it from Usher or live in your means like the rest of us.
@loving this site I totally agree!!
And might I add I’m no usher fan or tameka basher but she really needs to get her life!! From what everyone is saying she Rec"vd a settlement from the divorce and got to live 3 years free!! Honestly I think he was pretty nice about it!! I’ve seen worse actions over people that have wayy less at stake to loose. The problem is she lives way beyond her means like a lot of people in Atlanta seem to do. Nobody owes tameka anything and I honestly thinks she’s been patted on her ass enough it’s time to move on. Yet she hates him but continues to bear the mans last name?? She lost me on that one. Further more she trashes the man with every breath she takes. People are always screaming tameka has businesses and blah blah blah and she was made before usher if thats the cases why can’t to get her own crib and car? Usher isn’t innocent and may be a dog but tameka is no saint…she needs to move on because she’s looking real crazy right now… #deranged is more like it !! I’m a mother with 2 children so I’m not heartless…
Have you considered one of your kids dying and not even being able to go in their rooms yet??? You are a heartless bitch to even speak on her having to move based your accounts of shit you’ve read or heard. Her son just died a few months ago and you’re talking about she sounds crazy and should move on??? Move on from what? The son memory? Her bitchy ex bitch? I would like to think she doesn’t give 2 shits about the latter. I sure wouldn’t he could drink bleach, if that was my ex. He is a punk and handling man shit like a scorned little boy. You sound as stupid as he, no wonder you’re a fan of his, birds of a feather. There’s only a few of you left so march on dummies.
Soo…I don’t think I am heartless either…but I am not about to pay property taxes in Fulton County, GA because my ex is grieving the loss of their child. I live in Roswell and just paid 8k on taxes and my home is the size of the garage of this home! I know he has crazy money, but he is also trying to move on with his life.He is not responsible for providing her with a mansion to grieve in. He asked that the trial be postponed so that she can grieve but she insisted it continue. I mean, everyone grieves different but if I just lost a child, the last place I would want to be is in a courtroom battling my ex for custody of my other two. Perhaps saying she cannot enter her deceased son’s room is reaching a little? But then again…I am not him or her so I don’t what either are going through.
He did NOT ask for her benefit. He asked for a postponement because he didn’t want her getting any sympathy for Kile’s passing.
She was supposed to leave long before her child died so that argument of a grieving child is invalid. She works as a stylist then hire someone to pack your childs room. He couldnt have accumulated too much stuff there when that wasnt his primary residence.
She was supposed to leave?
Loving yhis site -
Wow that is so hateful. I may disagree with others about the house, but man have some sympathy. While I do think she SHOULD have moved after the divorce, there’s nothing stating she was SUPOSSED to leave otherwise he would have sold years ago. He waited three years, what’s one more, he could have done this at any time prior to this.
Wow!!! You guys really go in…

stlchick Says:
A swing and a miss??? If you’re directing that at my comment, darlin, keep living. Life can be really funny that way.
Dana T.
Yes, I was talking to you. And since I’m not feeling suicidal, I certainly will continue living.
But as of now, your assumption is incorrect. I wasn’t saying that to be sarcastic, but clearly you took it that way.
stlchick:
Hey… It’s my fault if you didn’t mean anything by it. I was just saying that more times than not people r unrealistic about things n life that r everyday deeds such as divorce. unfortunately what is not being discussed r the emotional ramifications behind break ups or divorces. Some people aren’t as strong as you sound like you are. A lot of people have committed suicide behind something like this.
Dana T.
HA!!
…all she had to do is chill, keep her mouth shut and play nice for 18 years. did she…, could she do THAT? No! This chick went toe to toe in the most egregious fashion with the man who pays ALL her bills and THEN some and then has the nerve to wonder why the judge threw the book at her. Well, seems like discretion should have been the better part of valor insofar as her attitude, behavior and actions are concerned. otherwise, she could’ve continued to live in that big house, enjoy the monthly child-support checks and STILL be the ex-wife on good terms with one of the most famous and well-liked entertainers on the planet…, thus enjoying all the benefits that come along with that status. The degree of sheer stupidity that she displayed during the entire period after her break-up with this man is simply jaw-dropping and serves as a textbook lesson for how NEVER to treat your multi-millionaire superstar ex-husband with whom you have children. Bottom line is, these two kids will continue to be very well taken care of…, but she will not! it won’t be long before we hear of her living in an extended stay motel somewhere in Lawrenceville.
Wow!!!!! (O_o)
@Jimi…#pow #truth!!!!!!
Sad
It is sad but I wouldn’t want to be living on edge hoping somebody is gonna take something from me if I don’t act the way they want me too. The best thing in the world is to have your own even if that means she has to downgrade. I would have to let all the material things go and continue to fight for my children. When I leave a relationship I don’t want anything from it
@ Jimi F. BOOM!!! You’ve summed it all up. Nothing else needs 2 B said!!!!
@ jimi F harsh but the truth!!!!
Thise boys havent grown enough to adapt to that house!!! I agree fully with @Flix… Girl BYE!!!
@Jimi…….YEP! Da truth!
I cannot believe the lack of heart he has…makes me feel some kind of way about the Ur-sher. Really, no matter what, she carried these children and recently lost another child. This man is playing dirty for the show and drama. I’m not impressed at all, but I guess Daddy’s home…
