Someone is probably writing songs about this for Usher as I type. He'll be in the studio this week, then the songs will be added to the CD. Folks will want to hear the songs, he'll go on his press tour and the CD will be a bigger seller than Confessions.  
Ya'll tell me if the CD is any good. I'm not buying it.

Usher and Tameka
Did you all see the stuff about her welfare fraud crime from several years ago?
Is the pregnancy also a hoax/publicity related?
AKA2D, I'm with you. I will not be buying the CD. Although I only bought his very first one for a penny thanks to Columbia House.

Ushmeka
I saw an update on People.com, and apparently Urrsshh and Manmeka had some, shall we say, stylistic differences on the wedding. Usher wanted celebrity chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten to cater the wedding (great food, BTW. I've eaten at one of his restaurants in N.Y. and he's married to a sista), while 'Meka wanted barbecue.
Sorry, although I like a good barbecue (just had a beef rib and rice for breakfast), you don't do that at a wedding! Too much potential for mess.

Stop playing!!!! LOL
Why wait until the day of to cancel though knowing that this was potentially the reason? Caterers have to be booked in advance so surely Usher knew what Tameka wanted to have served at the wedding.

Food wasn't the only reason...
http://www.people.com/people/article...048727,00.html
When did Ben Verneen become his godfather? 
And I can't believe that Usher's own mother wasn't invited to the wedding until the last minute. If it wasn't for her, he wouldn't be where he's at today. Maybe her mother was trying to convince Chilli to come back (considering she was a part of the reason they broke up).
This is one HAM. 
ETA: Has anyone heard that Eddie and Tracy are getting married?

Ben Vereen has always been his Godfather. I remember that being mentioned on Video Soul when he first came out.

I saw it on the landing page of AOL this morning...that is strange to me, especially with the tell all article from Scary Spice in Essence where she stated that he was meeting her family and was about to marry her.
IMHO, I think that Eddie Murphy is trying desperately to camoflauge the belief that he is gay/bi-sexual. It is almost as if he thinks that as long as he keeps a woman around and has a gazillion kids that somehow people won't believe that he is that way. Or maybe he is someone who doesn't want to be alone (always has to be in a relationship with somebody), I don't know, but this all seems real sudden and suspicious to me....

True. I remember reading where Holly Robinson-Peete had soul food including greens and such at her reception.  I guess they, like Tameka were trying to "keep it real". LMAO
Shawn is still on AH, she also does AH on TVOne commercial break segments.

Please tell me this is not the real reason why the wedding didn't take place. If they would let something like a difference in opinion on what to serve at the wedding stop them from getting married, their marriage doesn't stand a chance....
I am more inclined to believe that some people FINALLY got to Usher (whether it was about the pre-nup or other things) and he called it off...

I think that was only a mild reason. I suspect there's something deeper, but since it was from People mag, of course, the relative superficialities would be played up.

I mean, did this shock anyone?
Ushur, you could have done so much better.
Steeltrap: please report to the corner for "ManMeka".
Still about Eddie and Tracey, though. And exactly how long were Mel and Eddie together for them to meet parents and all that?

Bill Walsh passed away!
I loved the 49ers during his tenure.
