We all heard the rumor about Usher delaying his album plans because of Tameka’s pregnancy but it looks like Usher’s mama is not having it!
According to the Chicago Sun-Times, the two ladies supposedly got into a recent screaming match where Jonetta Patton blamed Tameka for ruining her son’s career.
The entertainer’s mother, Jonetta Patton, supposedly had a screaming match with his wife, Tameka Foster, after learning Usher had dropped plans to release a new record because Foster insisted he take a break from his career to concentrate on her and their baby, a son who’s due in December.
Patton despises Foster for getting her fired as her son’s manager but didn’t hesitate to call her daughter-in-law to tell her she “is doing a great job destroying a talented artist’s fantastic career.”
According to a source who was present, Foster said nothing, then snapped her cell phone shut, thus ending the one-sided conversation. [source]
I’m sure you all remember the tip we received after Usher threw his fragrance release party a few weeks back. The tipster said you could slice the tension between Tameka and Jonetta with a knife.


Usher needs to snap out of it – he is old enough to realize that mama does know best sometimes. I think his mama is dead on about Tameka, sad to say. Usher picked the wrong time to rebel and assert his manhood…he’s going to be paying for it dearly for the rest of his life – dayum URSH!
Wow. Mommy’s not playing. I hear that. Usher will soon come to his senses. I wish them all the best of luck. My guess is that Usher will need it the most. A couple of you are saying that he’s in love. I’m not quite to sure about that. I think Usher is more excited than anything else about his baby and fatherhood. But i certainly could be wrong. Its just my observation.
P.s. I’m too damn tired to spell check. so forgive me if there is any.
I know this may be hard for Mama Patton to do…but she needs to let Usher go!!!
He’s a grown man, with a wife, and a baby on the way. He’s not the little boy she helped to become a superstar.
She has to let him go, let him be a man, make his own decisions, and deal with whatever consequences his decisions bring.
I just hope Usher is not letting Tameka destroy his relationship with his mother, because his mother will ALWAYS be is mother. Tameka may or may not always be his wife. You don’t let anybody separate you from your family so they can control you.
awwww i hope they can work through this…i feel sorry for usher.
That’s Usher’s fault….you gotta be aware of a woman that just doesn’t get along with your mother? And yes, mothers can be a mess sometimes but EVERYONE has something negative to say about Tameka including her OWN family, so what’s really good?? Where are her other kids…..can she take time to focus on them so Usher can continue to be her meal ticket and put albums out? I swear, these fertile-myrtle cougars are getting outta control…
@ 7 I agree . Usher is not a child anymore . He can very well make his own choices . She may not like them but she can’t choose for him .
usher is a fool…
So hold on is Tameka supposed to push out his baby and deal with the last few months of pregnancy and all that by herself, whilst he’s flying around promoting an album. The album can wait a few months, how many women out there would want a situation like that for themselves…
Parents are only human and are not always right.. If my parents had each listened to their parents they would never have got married and been able to share a beautiful happy 25yr marriage in which they’ve stuck with each other and worked hard together to get through the hard times and also enjoyed many many happy times..
Maybe Tameka and Usher’s mother are too alike, I know that’s why my grandmother didn’t like my mother.
and let the record show usher married tameka because he wanted a mother…thats a deep statement think about it
His mother has always been his manager and he always called her by her first name…and in a interview once with MTV some time back he said sometimes he finds it hard for him to seperate his mother from his manager
I kinda understand usher’s mom but she cant breastfeed him forever. Both women are being selfish. Momma need to let him go ahead and make mistakes and learn from them. I wouldn’t want to see my son putting the thing he loves on a backburner on behalf of some female.
Wow #69.
I want them all to go away already.
Maybe Usher’s one of those weak men that needed to use a woman strong enough to stand up to his mother so he could stand behind them and use them to escape his mother.
I’m almost totally convinced (95% sure right now) that Tameka has Usher by his BALLS. If I was Usher’s mom I’d tell Tameka she ain’t gonna be pregnant forever….she should get the hint.
SO that baby IS Usher’s? AGAIN I thought she was pregnant this time by her ex-husband? If this baby IS Usher’s and he wants to take a break solely because he wants personal time since it is his first child and all that then that’s wassup but I just hope anyways it’s not because Tameka is trying to control him or ruin his career.
Come on now everyone. This man has a wife and a child on the way. Regardless if we want him to come out with new material right now, he has to take care of family first! ya know? Even if his wife is being selfish, if wifey wants him home………he gone be at the home front!

>>>>>>>>> SO TRUE! If Usher wasn’t taking care of that child people would call him a loser, now because he wanna be there for the woman’s pregnancy he’s being laughed at. A child is definitely more important than an album coming out, especially when he already has millions in the bank and other business ventures. And I agree that parents aren’t ALWAYS right…….I’ve seen too many cases of happily married couples of over 15 years of marriage, and their parents were against the marriage. Parents ain’t perfect! Good post!!
Whatever..he is grown..no one can make him do shyt
ushers mom needs to sit her ass down…. and accept the fact that she got the daughter in law frum hell….. and let usher suffer on his own….. that is his wolf and she will soon blow his house down lolololol
Poor Usher, doesn’t realize even if he does release his cd, his fan base is not as big as it previously was. And it has nothing to do with who he chose to be with…but everything to do with how it is being portrayed…People are getting tired of hearing about it. Which in essence is making his fans lose interest in him…
SHE’S A MAN-EATER..SHE’S GONNA SUCK HIM DRY AND THEN WHEN ALL THE RESOURCES ARE GON, SHE’S GONNA MOVE TO THE NEXT MAN JUST LIKE HOW THE ALIENS DID IN INDEPENDENCE DAY….SUCK ALL THE RESOURCES THEN MOVE TO THE NEXT….
Men…please marry women your mama likes atleast most of the time. Geeesh! His life is going to be miserable until the inevitable happens. hmmm?

Usher is to fine to be dealing with an old ass hag, specially when it comes to mom.
So, this source happens to know exactly what occurred on both ends of this telephone conversation, and described it as a screaming match, even though it was supposedly one-sided? Hmmmmmm……
I’m not saying shes a golddigger….but she ain’t f***kin with no broke ni**ers. Shes all about control and wealth. Ursher wanted this so he’ll grow up real quick, I give the marridge 12 months. Yea I believe she did some voo-doo on him to lock it down. Hey she won the lottery! MaMa Usher know what time it is…..
#25 I fully agree with you. This shit right here is a scandle and I can’t wait for it to come to the light. Usher is all messed up. He looks like a drag and is far from his glory days. When I was listening to that Miss Jones interview for the promotion of his perfume I just knew shit was going downhill. He doesn’t sound happy. He doesn’t sound like a dude who just married the love of his life. He sound like somebody who is strugglin like hell to stay above water. I hope his mama can get in his ear and set his crazy ass straight.
Ohhh look at Momma Jo’s side eye, she’s ready to cut somebody
Wow that’s deep but I wouldn’t pass Tameka though she looks real scandelous n deceitful to me man she aint nothing but another Bobby Brown:a jealous ass motha fucker tryna ruin they spouses career. Usher has gotten a real situation on his hands he needs to handle his wife n talk to his moms cuz eventhough I agree with her n on her side, mothers need to be put in they place too
Usher’s mistake was not marrying Tomeka. His mistake was letting 1million people into his business. His mistake was putting a fragrance out without a CD to back him up. His mistake was throwing Tomeka into public view when he KNOWS good and well he has young female fans that will be heartsick. Yes, the man is entitled to get married, have a baby, whatever….but u decide to do alll of this and put a CD out and have drama with your mama all at the sametime? Come on Ush, come up for air.
All this drama is about what Usher is doing. Not what Tomeka is doing. Tomeka needs to sit back and stop trying to be a celebrity by association. Usher needs to stop reminding his fans that he now has a first lady. It’s bad for business.
k
I feel what ushers mom is saying from a “BUSINESS” point of view only. She was the one that nurtured him into the superstar that he is now. (Can i still say “superstar”?). So its got to be hard to sit back and watch her son’s career slow down, when it was just getting on a roll! The music industry is very fickle and if he does’nt hurry up and get some new material out he will be a HAS BEEN. Fans will forget about you in a hot second if you don’t keep the hit’s coming. I just think he’s in awe of having a baby.
Wow…I used to love me some Usher Raymond!!! He was sooo adorable when he did the “Just Call Me a Mack” video. But I digress…Ushe is a grown ass man now. He is not a kid anymore, so he is now making the mistakes that grown people make and he is going to learn from this experience. Like a few of the other posts, I think there is a scandal somewhere in this drama. All the ish he did was so backwards. From the marraige, to the perfume to the c.d. to the mama drama to everyone being in his business to him pushing his album back to him allowing Tameka to pretty much take over his life and career. But, I can see an individual taking some time off to take care of home. He just has too much going on at one time!!! Sit your ass down, Usher. He has to be stressed.
Anyway, something fishy is going on…
EVERY DOG HAS THEIR DAY……I HOPE THIS DOG GET’S THEIRS REAL SOON, REALLY REALLY SOON.
IN YOUR LIFETIME YOU GET THE FOLLOWING:
1 BIG CHANCE
1 LOVING MOTHER
1 AMAZING CAREER
TONS OF CHEAP MANLY LOOKIN TRICK BITCHES WHO ARE WILLING TO HAVE AS MANY KIDS AS YOUR DUMB ASS WILL PLANT IN ORDER TO LIVE THE GOOD LIFE…
THE FIRST THREE THINGS I’VE LISTED ARE LIFE CHANGING AND NON-REPLACEABLE….THE OTHERS ARE CHEAP AS HELL, AND YOU CAN FIND THEM ON ANY STREET CORNER. PIMPS ARE EVEN WILLING TO TRADE YOURS FOR THEIRS….
USHER, THINK ABOUT IT….I KNOW IT’S YOUR LIFE…BUT ANY TIME YOU FALL OUT WITH YOUR MOTHER, YOU’RE DOING SOMETHING SO WRONG….YOU’VE TRUSTED YOUR MOTHER FOR YEARS, BEFORE THIS BEAST LIKE BITCH CAME ALONG, NOW ALL OF A SUDDEN, YOUR MOTHER IS THE ENEMY? DO YOU THINK YOU WOULD HAVE BEEN ABLE TO ACCOMPLISH WHAT YOU HAVE WITHOUT HER? WHO DROVE YOUR LITTLE ASS TO ALL YOUR AUDITIONS? YOU TOOK THEIR TIME TO MANAGE YOUR CAREER, AND MADE SURE YOU WEREN’T BEING EXPLOITED? WHO TOLD YOU, YOU WERE THE BOMB, EVEN THOUGH EVERYBODY DIDN’T QUITE SEE IT THAT WAY BACK IN THE DAY? WHO WIPED YOUR LITTLE SHIT RIDDEN ASS? WHO NURTURED YOU? I COULD GO ON WITH THE “WHO’S”
NOW TELL ME AGAIN, WHAT DID TAMEKA DO?
USHER IS GAY USING TAMEKA TO COVER UP THAT’S WHY HE GOT MARRIED TO HER CAUSE SHE’S UGLY, JUST TO COVER UP JUST LIKE ALL GAY BLACK MAN WHO PRETENDS TO BE STRAIGHT WHY WOULD HE MARRY PRETTY WOMEN IF HE’S NOT INTO WOMEN AT ALL IT’S JUST AN ACT FOR PUBLIC = HE ACTUALLY FUCKS MAN
I am still mad that he married that old woman i forgot all about the baby ….oops!
I love the way Usher used to look in that pic where he’s kissing his mom. I think everyone should leave him alone & let him marry whomever he feels like marrying. No one is eva good enough 4 u pple, if he was to marry a white or light skinned girl, ya’ll would complain, he’s marrying a normal civilian chocolate sistah & ya’ll r still complaining. We should just let him be pple, his mistakes r his to make.
I just want to know where the heck are this womans other kids?? Is her ex doing all the work as a parent while she has fun running around with usher and a new baby??
#26 MANeka must have studied Alexyss K. Tylor?
LMAO @ P***y Power!
Bottom Line everybody knew this was coming. No surprise Usher wants to be there for the baby. He is a father, he should be there for the birth of his child. I was not expecting him to drop anything this year. But as far as this woman hurting his career? I say YES. There something awfully wrong with causing a rift between mother and son. It does not sit well with the fans at all. What some you don’t get is that we the fans love Mrs.Jonetta, just as much as we love Usher the entertainer. It has nothing to do with age nor skin color, but has EVERYTHING to do with the fact the this woman comes across as a person who is not genuine or humble. And yes a mother should allow her son to grow, but why is Mrs.Jonetta who made Usher into star that he is (looked after his finances with no problems, drove so many miles from home so Usher could make the audition) is so against this one woman? Why all of the sudden Usher acting like Mrs.Jonetta is the enemy? Makes no sense…
This dude needs to listen to him Momma. He already went from a Bentley to a chevette as far as women. His momma has rode with him for day one and he shouldn’t take her advice lightly. “SMH”
Something must be wrong with my eyes because to me Tameka does not look like looks a man – as far as i can see she look like the average black woman out there. unless people are thinking that because of her age she should be a little heavier.
I think Tameka has a lot of dirt and secrets on Usher and she’s basically using that leverage to control/manipulate Usher. Be a MAN and MAN up USHER..
We all love momma….
I love the way everybody’s always going on about how old Tameka is, she is not as old as Halle or Janet. Chilli was way older than Usher..
People always talk about why she is not with her kids, but neither is Puffy, or any of those other guys with children that you always see rolling out of clubs. If her ex-husband is taking the role of primary care-giver for the other children, why should he not?? If it was the other way round and Tameka way round and the gender roles were reversed nobody would be talking about it… women sometimes are our worse critics..
And i’ll say it again, Tameka looks no more manly than Serena Williams, but whenever Serena’s pictured on this site, everybody wants to talk about how beautiful she looks, and i agree she does, even if her back is broader and more masculine than my fathers………………… and he’s a pretty butch guy
what is sadd is TAMEKA has BAGGAGE when she got with USHER! MAMA saw it before Ush did and warned him. remember the term/statement “MAMA no’s BEST”… this is a lesson USHER has to learn his mom does not want him to learn it and mess up his entire career while learning the lesson… USHER you should always listen to your mother she has your BEST interest at HEART!! anyone real woman wants her man to be HAPPY and do what he loves to do “singing” in this case why is i was your wife want you to put an album on HOLD for me knowing that in the business if you “SLEEP” someone else is going to have your moment!! THIS will all soon be over and im hopeful that your MOM is still right there next to you supporting and loving you you are her BABY… WOMEN go in and out of Mens lives your mom will be there 4 Ever!
WOMEN go thru this all the time i have 4 boys! i only expected my HUSBAND to be there on important days like “DELIVERY TIME”, help me do the NURSERY, A couple of doctors appt’s not EVERY dr APpt!! TAMEKA stop! DONT mess his Career up by being stupid he will be there for all the important times….
I know in late but why is there so much hate for Tameka,honestly i don’t get it,am i missing something? Please somebody clear up why people cannot stand this woman,i seen the clip of the photo shoot,and her attitude left much to be desired. However,people have called this woman every name except a child of god,before the video was even posted. I’m not being sarcastic, but i really want someone to explain to me,why is she constantly being dumped on?
Ush and UggMoe>>>>2 thumbs down!!!!
usher should be ashamed of his self for doing his mother like that. he will reap what he soul. i dont know tamika personally but for some reason i think she is sneaky and a snake. its written all over her face. she is going to dog him and break his ass completely down.
NO ONE CAN RESPECT HER BECUZ SHE IS RUNNING USHER AND HIS CAREER CHOICES…………….WHY IS IT WE NEER SEE HER WITH HER KIDS…OR EVEN USHER WITH THEM, EVEN THO I’M SURE THEY GO TO SCHOOL YOU CAN’T TELL ME THERE IS NOT 1 TIME THE PAPZ COULDN’T HAVE GOTEN A PIC OF THEM…..I HEARD ONE OF THEM IS SUPPOSE TO BE HELLA OLD ANYWAZE………..USHER SHOULD FEEL FUNNY HE’S AROUND THE SAME AGE………SHE TRADED IN HER KIDZ AND MARRIAGE FOR THE HIGH LIFE…………….!
Well Usher, you can just stick a fork in it because after the baby, your career may be DONE! There is too many R&B cats in the game and ain’t nobody gonna be checking for you.
Usher is an asshole!! He’s letting that girl run his world.
Thats a damn shame! Maybe SHE should be waring a DICK!!!
cause shes blowin his ass out!!!LMAO
