Usher and Tameka Raymond
All the people that grew excited over items on the internet implying Sony singer Usher, has divorced his wife, Tameka Foster, in a legal action that was finalized, were gleeful in vain, as a spokesperson for her has denied the story.
Some state Usher had a prenuptial agreement, giving his wife very little. However, as she has acquired very expensive tastes during their marriage, I question whether she will walk away with very little. She might even break her word and challenge this so-called prenup people are referring to, in order to maintain a lavish lifestyle in Atlanta.
She currently lives in a $4 million dollar property he purchased at her insistence. She also treated herself to expensive jewels, designer clothes and lavish parties.
For her to give that up cold turkey, would be surprising and as such, I think she would hold out for as much of his money as possible.
Their marriage has been a relatively short one and Tameka certainly did not contribute to his success. However, she did have a serious hand in the downfall of his career and the massive sales decline that accompanied it.

Therefore, she cannot use the argument in court wives sometimes do, stating they helped their husbands' careers.
Some women actually do help their husbands' careers, but sadly for Usher, Tameka cost him a lot of money via lost revenue. He was at the top of the charts when they began openly dating and less than a year into the marriage, his career hit the skids.
In other news, Tameka continues to blame her woes in the black community, on being a dark skinned black woman, which is completely untrue. Dark skinned black women such as Iman and Jessica White are gorgeous, well liked and have successful, high profile careers.
People did not take to Tameka, because she fought Usher's mother, audience, staff and publicists, to name a few. They viewed her as a villain and an avarice, with a criminal record for financial fraud, who was out to get Usher's money.

Usher too has consistently made many poor choices. Taking up with a married woman, Tameka, was one of them. He also insulted his fans for her.
Not to mention, he joined Kabbalah, a sick cult that has destroyed the career, sanity and personal lives of its members. For further reference see Lindsay Lohan, Paris Hilton, Mischa Barton, Britney Spears, Chris Brown and Rihanna, who've all experienced brushes with the law and bouts of insanity since joining.
Side Bar: with his career hitting the skids, very little money coming in, his restaurant/wine bar closing after failing, a few mortgages on multi-million dollar mansions, taxes, insurance, maintenance fees, staff, several car notes and a taste for very expensive clothes and shoes, plus this divorce settlement to Tameka looming, how is Usher going to pay for all this.
Rep Calls Tameka, Usher Divorce Finalization False

(23/8/2009) - R 'n' B singer Usher has revealed that he has fetish for shoes and that he has collected over 10,000 pairs over the years..."I even ask myself, 'Are you serious?' It's ridiculous. I go from Timberlands and Hi-Tec to Balenciaga and Lanvin. I have someone going to pick up the new red Nike Jordans for me right now," he said.
The 30-year-old also has an addiction to unusual watches. "I own about 80 watches. I travel with at least four. They're not all high-end... They range from Cartier and Rolex to Seiko and G-Shock. It's about what suits me at that moment. I also have hundreds of suits. Designer Tom Ford fits me really well," he said...
