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!

106. OMG!!!!... I can't believe he married that chick!!! He is a SUCKA, all caps!!!! He let Chilli go and ended up with an old ass hag, with several kids, and a jail record. Not to mention, that she is not attractive at all either. Jonetta, be there for your dumb ass son. He is going to need you!!

108. DAMN! Ush must be whodooed, every move he has made concerning the female in the last few month's screams(NOT IN RIGHT MIND). first he fired his mgr. mother who got him to where he is today, then he fired his long time agent who also contributed to his sucess, then he cancels his wedding on the day of the wedding, and now after she fakes a baby-scare he fly's to where she is and marries her? That doe'snt sound like someone with there head on straight. Yes it is a good thing for a man getting someone pregant to marry them; but not just for that reason, he just don't seem to be makeing decisions with a clear head. Example?......Hell, he married a man.

110. I think Usher can do a lot better, who knows maybe she's good person. However I don't think he was ready. People in hollywood seem to get married because it's seems like "the thing to do" or just to have a title as the wife or husband. TO HOLLOWOOD STOP BRING THESE BABIES INTO THE WORLD WHO GET CAUGHT UP IN YOUR SELFISH DRAMA...IT'S NOT RIGHT AT ALL...HIV-STD'S-BIRTH CONTROL-CONDOMS..DO THAT RING A BELL!!!

God fearing mothers are always right. They are able to discern evil when they see it. Usher's mother is a God fearing woman. -Trust-

To Usher:

You should have listened to your mother. By not listening to your mother's warnings, you have just stepped into the pits of hell. You were "creeping" with your "wife" when she was a married women. What does that tell you about her ( and you as well)? If she creeped with you, while married, she will creep with someone else, while "married" to you. And you will creep with someone else, while married to her. The sanctity of marriage means nothing to her, (or you), just ask her "former husband". She has also been in prison on numerous scandalous charges, so she has not had a history of making good choices or having sound judgement. This is the 21st century, women these days only get pregnant because they want to (or need to trap a man) . So, Usher be sure to get an AIDS and DNA test. Remember the wedges of sin is death and death comes in many forms, not just in the physcial. Women are like the bus, there is one every five minutes, but you only have One Mother. Usher, you know your mother only has your best interests at heart, can you say they same about your "New" wife? She allowed you to throw thousands of dollars away on a "cancelled" wedding. But then again, what goes around comes around, remember how you treated Chili? Life has a way of coming back and bitting you in the butt. My little brother, you have been bitten big time!

I am joining your mother and family in prayer, that God may open you eyes to the evil you have stepped into. A hard head makes a soft behind. My little brother, may you pray that your heart and mind open to the voice of God and that you heed HIS direction. Only God can save you from this destruction.

116. wow, usher must have a mommy complex, they make kinda an odd couple... she 's just so big and matronly looking next to him.. but some men have a major mamma fetish, so it's all gooood, spank me/diaper me and so forth and so on..... so if they're truly happy then that's all that matters... best wishes to both....

117. I feel so bad for usher, what 38 year old woman wants with a 28 year old man besides money? This bitch is having his baby and she is set for life now pre nup or not. Anyway hope i'm wrong about her and she doesn't drag him though the dirt like i'm anticipating. And by the looks of her damn i had a chance, she isn't anywhere near attractive even with makeup on!

120. Well, ladies Usher is married! I can hear your hearts dropping to the floor, and your tears rolling down your faces. Sorry, Usher did not pick you! Tameka is the winner! Tameka might not be the idea lady you would pick for Usher, but give Usher some credit for marrying her. He must have deep feeling for her because he did marry her not you, and ladies yes, he did make love to her. Usher is not a child, and he seen to be a wise man, so be happy for him. Just maybe he wanted someone who loves him with all his faults, and not someone who loves him for being an entertainer. As far as his mother, she will get over her feelings once the baby comes into this world. She is not the first lady to dislike the new wife, and she will not become the last. You know how women are who do not have a husband, they treat their sons like their man, I'm not saying anything nasty, but you know what I mean. Personally, I wish the best for Usher, Tameka, the new baby, and his mother. Tameka, you go girl! You got Usher! They say, older women know how to please a man! Maybe Tameka will start a class for all the ladies that want to know how she got Usher, so they can go and get someone equal to his status. Tameka may had made some mistakes, but she's on the right track now! Also, have you not noticed Tameka looks like Usher mother!
