A source close to Usher states that his wife is expecting her 5th child, a 2nd for Usher.

The R&B star and his wife Tameka Foster are expecting their second child together, a source close to the singer confirms. The couple welcomed their first child, Usher Raymond V, in November 2007. Since then, Usher, 29, has spoken publicly about how much he loves being a dad. “I’m so proud to be a father by the time I’m 30,” he told PEOPLE last month. “I’d hate to be 80 years old and not be able to run with my kids. I need to still be able to do flips when they’re in high school…”Having a child just completed the story,” he said. “I already had a giving heart, and I wanted to do something to mentor children.” People

With rumors of the couple separating and now a 2nd child is possibly involved, who can really say that they do not genuinely care for each other. Thoughts?

Usher, Keith Urban and Natasha Bedingfield will kick off the NFL season with a free concert in today in Manhattan’s Columbus Circle. The NFL will air portions of the concert live on its network prior to Thursday night’s game between the Giants and the Washington Redskins at Giants Stadium! I am so excited and anxious to see what Usher has planned for this HUGE venue, considering the fact that he’s busy gearing up for more a intimate concert. Love muffins will you be tuning in?

Love muffins, Usher is about to do a tour just for the ladies (but I know a few men that will probably try to sneak in). The ‘One Night Stand’ tour will be in about 15 cities with an “intimate” feel to it.

“There’s only a few artists that can pull that off,” said the 29-year-old singer. “I feel like I’ve had such a connection with my audience. This album, I felt like, was definitely the type of one that was more intimate. So what better way to get up close and personal than to make it all women?…The ladies like to see that masculine build,” he said. “They question if I still got it.” To go with the theme, Usher is also planning his own line of lingerie and men’s undergarments. He already has a fragrance and cologne. Usher is currently working on a video for his new single Trading Places. USA Today

I am thinking that the only reason why the tour will be in 15 different intimate venues is because his camp is expecting that not a lot of people will fill a stadium or an arena like they did once before. I am glad to here that a video for “Trading Spaces” is in the works. Thoughts?

After recent speculation about Usher’s third single from his latest album Here I Stand, it looks like “What’s Your Name” featuring Will.I.Am has been selected as his next single since radio stations have already started to add the song to their playlist. Do you think this song has what it takes to be move his album up on the charts?

A track recently leaked from T.I.’s sixth studio album Paper Trail featuring Usher on “My Life, Your Entertainment”. This song is hot! From all the songs that I have heard off of T.I.’s album, it sounds like he is going to have another hit album on his hands. Album is slated for a September 30, 2008. Thoughts?

It looks like Usher is about to release two singles to the radio stations, because it looks like one single just won’t be enough from his latest album Here I Stand. “Trading Spaces” and the title track “Here I Stand” will be added to the radio play lists shortly. I really enjoy both of the songs, so maybe this will help increase his record sales since he is so disappointed with what already has been sold. Thoughts?
