Usher Finally Marries

Usher and fiancee Tameka Foster have finally tied the knot, one week after canceling their extravagant wedding, People reports.

The couple, who are expecting their first child this winter, were reportedly married in the Atlanta office of the singer's lawyer. That's way different from the over-the-top affair they had originally planned. According to reports, Usher and his bride were to celebrate their union at the NY home of music tycoon LA Reid. Celeb chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten had been hired to whip up the wedding feast, and singer Robin Thicke (and others) were lined up to perform. The wedding was so extravagant -- the couple spent $10,000 on invitations alone.

As to what caused the nuptials to be canceled the first time, it's anybody's guess. Several outlets have reported that it was Usher's momager, Jonetta Patton, who disapproved of the 37-year-old Foster. Ms. Foster reportedly has a shady past, which Usher was unaware of until right before last week's planned wedding. It also could have been a self-described "pregnancy scare" that Foster endured last Saturday.

In any event, the two on-and-off lovebirds are on their way to wedded bliss. Beware the monster-in-law!

61. #63,
typical stereotype,

when you find true love race/religion/nationality does not matter...at least not to me...
that is why the world is so divided because we can't learn to accept each other

64. Bless you Usher and Tameka, Honor marriage, and guard the sacredness of sexual intimacy between wife and husband. Be ready with a meal or a bed when it's needed. Don't be obsessed with getting more material things. Be relaxed with what you have. Please don't have a listening ear to some who have given up on faith and chase after demonic illusions put forth by professional liars! These liars have lied so well and for so long that they've lost their capacity for truth. They will tell you not to get married, GOD draws a firm line against casual and illicit sex. Stay on good terms with each other, held together by love. GOD is LOVE! Keep HIM first who or what can get to you? You two are now one! God's word and our prayers make every item in creation holy. For God is not an indifferent bystander. He is actively cleaning house,torching all that needs to burn and he won't quit until it's all cleansed. God himself is Fire! Better to marry than to burn...GOD bless you and your union of family.

66. I'm happy for Usher and Tameka. Only they know how they feel about one another.....not a bunch of faceless Internet typers.

For the people that are calling Tameka a man; the last time I checked men could not have babies and it's obvious she's already had three and another one is on the way.

Let them be happy!!

69. Some questions...

Has Usher ever been rumored to be Gay?
Could his mother just be looking out for him?

Posted at 7:46AM on Aug 5th 2007 by Why Usher Why?

70. It looks to me like Usher married his mother. Oh, well. Money can't buy peace of mind either.

71. I don't know this Tameka but so many people on here are ready to call her trash just because she comes from a rough background. What an unforgiving bunch of snobs.

Posted at 8:34AM on Aug 5th 2007 by Yeah I am White... you have a problem with that? FU

72. I thought that when ugly men got famous they married pretty women anyway. So what in the hell happened here???

73. I think with this move, his career is finally over! I mean a baby doesn't mean you have to marry.....

74. Hey LA 11 You know I forgot about that. In that attorney’s office could sign a pre nup in private. I give them about a year to divorce with her getting nothing.

75. Sounds like most people think Usher is an 8yr. old. He is a grown man! I wish them the best and hope they have a beautiful, healthy baby come Fall. The only thing I think they should have done differently... with everything in place and paid for, they should have let the guests who had arrived and those coming stay for a big party. It just wouldn't have been a wedding party.
