Rihanna And Usher At 3rd Thisday!

Rihanna and Jay-Z performed their smash hit “Umbrella” at the ‘3rd Thisday Africa Rising Festival’ in Abuja, Nigeria on Friday night. Rihanna looked super duper hot on stage! Just look at those $1 million dollar legs! Usher also performed working up a sweat. I wonder if he sung live. Hopefully video footage will surface soon. View more pictures after the jump - Read more

Cover Wars: Mariah Carey vs Usher!

Two of the top selling artists in the country may not be competing against one another for record sales, but that doesn’t stop them from competing for magazine sales for the month of August. Usher covers the August 2008 issue of Essence magazine, while my diva Mariah Carey looks absolutely stunning on the August 2008 issue of Elle magazine. Again, Usher talks about his marriage to his wife Tameka. I am honestly tired of him defending his marriage. I am happy that he has found the person that he wants to spend the rest of his life with, but he needs to realize that people are going to talk regardless if he is speaking on the truth or not. So Usher, I urge to stop defending your marriage and live the way you want to live. Yes Mariah does speak a little bit on her marriage in Elle magazine, but she is not on the defensive side and she doesn’t speak for Nick. She also talks how she and Barack Obama are similar. So if you want to read both articles, go and pick up a copy at your nearest newsstand. Thoughts?

BET Awards ‘08 Performances!

Usher opened the BET Awards ‘08 off with a couple seconds of his latest single “Moving Mountains” then went right into his hit single “Love In This Club”. Honestly, the energy on the stage could have been better. I was really hoping for a Beyonce cameo for his “Love In The Club” remix, but I was disappointment. Chris Brown was super duper adorable as he sung to Rihanna’s hit “Take A Bow”. Ne-Yo performed “Closer” from his upcoming album Year Of The Gentleman. He was flying all over the place - the only thing missing was a cape. Alicia Keys bought girl power back love muffins!

Usher Didn’t Give His Mother The Pink Slip!

Usher covered the July issue of Vibe magazine and he puts the rumor of firing his mother to rest.

“I decided to not fire, not get rid of, but to give [my mother] the ultimate compliment — to retire her to be a full-time grandmother.


“My mother and I decided to change her situation, together,” he adds. “There was a conversation. I didn’t write her a letter or pink slip her.”


“Am I so much of a bad guy because I decided to get married?” Usher says. “Am I so much of a bad guy [because once I got in the situation] I decided to stand for something, build a foundation and think about my future? As a man, you would respect me for not turning my back on it.”

I hope his relationship with his mother has gotten better, because his son needs a grandmother. It’s good to hear that Usher didn’t fire his mother - two adults sat down and discussed business. Do you think his mother resigned to spend more time with her grandchild, or do you think his mother quit because of his relationship with Tameka?

Usher In Japan!

I just have one thing to say: chapstick. Somebody in his camp could have purchased some $0.99 cent chapstick. Fans will be excited to know that Usher will be performing his hit single “Love In This Club” at the BET awards on June 24th for the opening act. To make it even sweeter, rumor has it he will be singing the remix along with Lil Wayne and Beyonce. You already know I am super duper excited!

Would You Kiss A Man With Facial Hair?

I noticed that some of the top celebrities have facial hair. Love muffins, would you kiss a man with facial hair? Do you find it sexy? Sometimes I fear of coughing up a hair ball. View more pictures after the jump - Read more

Usher - Moving Mountains & Here I Stand (Live)

In cased you missed it, Usher performed several tracks from his new album Here I Stand on a BET special to celebrate the release of his album on Tuesday. He really got into it as he sung “Moving Mountains” - love muffins, he did that! Take me higher lord! I had to play the video several times. I got goosebumps - I just felt like shouting! I am glad that he sung “Here I Stand” as well as “Yeah” and “Love In This Club”. Thoughts? View the rest of the special after the jump - Read more

Why Does Usher Love Older Women?

When Usher was on SNL several weeks ago, I only watched his musical performances. I didn’t realize that he did a skit; however, I found it super duper funny especially towards the end when he messes up. He handled it like any pro would and improvised. He made fun of himself and his love for older women - I loved it! View pictures of Usher at his album signing for Here I Stand in New York City on Tuesday after the jump - Read more
