Usher Cancels Gig Over "Serious Family Injury"

Posted Feb 8th 2009 9:37AM by TMZ Staff

Usher A family emergency caused Usher to 86 his performance at a pre-Grammy party last night -- and one report claims it's because his wife is in trouble after having cosmetic surgery.

Music bigwig Clive Davis announced at his Pre-Grammy Bash that Usher's cancellation was due to a "serious injury in the family" -- and according to Access Hollywood, his wife Tameka had "experienced complications from plastic surgery" in Brazil.

Access claims a neurosurgeon is on the way to South America to assist Tameka -- who gave birth to their second child back in December.

People want to got down to Brazil to get surgery because they have heard good stuff about the country and what happened to her there could have happened to her anywhere.. That was her body reaction... OMG There are so many stupid plp in this world... they dont even know what they are talking about...

52. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY SHE WANT TO GET PLASTIC SURGERY! SHE'S MARRIED TO THE MOST TALENTED AND HANDSOME MAN WHO CARES ABOUT HER AND NOT ABOUT HER LOOKS. HE COULD HAVE ANY WOMAN THAT HE WANT! SO FOR HER TO GET PLASTIC SURGERY TO CHANGE HER LOOKS IS STUPID TO ME! IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT PEOPLE MAY THINK OR SAY ABOUT YOU OR YOUR LOOKS BECAUSE IT'S NONE OF THEIR BUSINESS, BUT I HOPE USHER AND HIS WIFE IS DOING WELL AND I HOPE SHE REALIZE HER HUSBAND LOVE HER FOR HER!
