May, 14 2013 | Written by ATLien

One of Usher Raymond‘s long time nanny’s, Cecilia Duncan (pictured above with Usher & Tameka’s youngest son, Naviyd), has filed a lawsuit against the superstar crooner claiming he refused to pay her!

Coincidentally, Usher and Tameka battled over his refusal to pay his wife’s nanny’s during their vicious child custody battle last year, but he was finally held in contempt of their previous arrangement and had to eventually cough up the back pay.

While most parents who have the means to hire a professional to care for their children rarely baulk at the idea of paying for such services, Usher has reportedly refused to cut the check for Duncan’s overtime AND if working for free wasn’t enough… he allegedly FIRED the nanny for inquiring about her overtime pay!

Prieto wore a French silk voile corseted sheer sheath gown by J’Aton Couture, in an ecru palette with accents of flesh tones, with handmade silk lace created especially for her, and enhanced with Swarovski crystals.

The pair peered romantically into each other’s eyes as they were serenaded by non other than superstar crooner Usher Raymond.

Jordan reportedly cut a huge pay check for Raymond to perform at the sport star’s lavish reception after he tied the knot with his model girlfriend of five years in Palm Beach, Florida on Saturday (April 27, 2013).

MJ brought in Robin Thicke to serenade Prieto. Returning the favor, the bride surprised her legendary NBA superstar hubby with a set by none other than Usher.

In honor of what would have been her son Kile Glover’s 12th birthday, Tameka held a celebratory launch party for the non-profit foundation created in his honor.

“Kile’s World Foundation” will offer art-based camps with multiple workshops including general instruction in the areas of acting, singing, dance, painting, illustration, music production and digital media.

It is also Tameka’s hopes to eventually open a magnet school with an emphasis on music and the arts in Kile’s honor.

Oddly enough, Usher pulled a “Beyonce’ last night and literally short-circuited the entire stage!

”This is very interesting,” Fallon said, as the lights went pitch black just as he was introducing Usher.

”No, this is good, you guys. This is the way he wants it to be lit.”

Before he finished that sentence the lights came back on.

Usher’s subsequently took his chair for the interview and admitted that people don’t always get his sense of humor, calling himself the ”black Larry David” *crickets*

Mugshot Mania – Kile Glover’s Alleged Killer Pleads ‘Not Guilty’… [PHOTOS]

Mar, 22 2013 | Written by ATLien

Jeffrey Simon Hubbard posed for the mugshot above after he was arrested in Hall, Co. a few weeks ago on several charges, including homocide.

Hubbard is the jet ski operator/friend of the family who allegedly collided with Tameka Raymond & Ryan Glover‘s son, Kile at Lake Lanier last summer.

Kile and his father, Ryan Glover, were vacationing at the lake July 4th weekend when Hubbard’s personal watercraft crashed into the boy’s raft. Kile subsequently died of heart failure at an Atlanta hospital July 21, 2012 at the age of 11 years old.

Jordan Shepp, a family friend & daughter of Peaches Chin (Kandi Burruss’ TAGS Boutique buisness partner), was tubing with Kile that day and suffered injuries as well. Shepp survived the accident with a severe injury to her left arm and her scalp was “seriously disfigured,” requiring multiple sutures.

Glover’s death and other accidents and injuries on Lake Lanier sparked legislative scrutiny of boating regulations, resulting in new boating safety regulations.

Hubbard faced a judge earlier this week on charges stemming from both Kile’s death and Jordan’s injuries in the crash and entered a plea of ‘not guilty’ to all charges.
