It appears Usher may have officially ended his marriage to Tameka Foster Raymond. We just found out the status of the divorce changed in the official record to "Disposed." A court official tells TMZ when a divorce case is "Disposed" it typically means the divorce is final.
The couple married in August, 2007. They have two small kids together.
A source connected with the couple tells TMZ Usher signed the divorce papers in August, but the change in the court file occurred today.
UPDATE: TMZ spoke with Tameka's lawyer who tells us despite what the court record says, "The case being 'disposed' is incorrect.'"
A rep for Tameka adds, "They are still married."

Usher was cool, calm and collected when he called 911 back in September -- accusing his "ex wife" Tameka Raymond of vandalizing his truck.
During the call, Usher explains to the operator that he had called cops the night before to file "a complaint because of potential domestic violence between me and my ex wife."
He then tells the operator that when he woke up the following morning, a person who was fixing a flat tire on his truck noticed that it had been keyed up on the side. During the call, Usher never directly accuses Tameka -- but insinuates that the scratch occurred as a result of the incident the night before.
As TMZ first reported, cops investigated the situation, but determined there wasn't enough evidence to make an arrest.

TMZ has learned Usher Raymond recently called the cops on his soon-to-be ex-wife -- accusing her of sneaking onto his property and scratching up one of his cars.
Law enforcement sources tell us when officers arrived at the scene, Tameka Raymond was nowhere to be found.
Police later interviewed both Tameka and Usher -- but determined there was no evidence or witnesses to substantiate Usher's claim.
But the drama didn't end there -- law enforcement sources tell us Usher called the cops on Tameka a second time several days later, complaining that Tameka again got onto his property and wouldn't leave. By the time cops arrived, Tameka had already split.
Usher filed for divorce back in June ... but it hasn't been finalized just yet.
UPDATE: TMZ just received the following statement from Tameka's rep:
"This is just another attempt to disparage Tameka. It's simply an angry ploy that has no merit.
Tameka's own truck was scratched but it's not clear how. The truck is registered in her name, it's not even Usher's car. Why would she vandalize her own vehicle?"

No need to call a doctor -- Michael Jackson is about to be remade again ... but this time by John Mayer*, Lionel Richie and Whitney Houston.
Larry King's wife Shawn tells us Usher, Dionne Warwick, Wyclef and Jermaine Jackson are joining Mayer, Richie and Houston in recording a remake of Jacko's "Will You Be There." Shawn, who is spearheading the tribute and sings on it as well, tells us she's not sure if Jennifer Hudson -- who sang the song at Michael's over-the-top memorial last month -- will be involved with the project, as she just gave birth.
The proceeds from the song will be split 50/50 between The Larry King Cardiac Foundation and LaToya Jackson an unspecified charity close to MJ.
*UPDATE: Mayer's rep denies he's a part of the project, saying, "John is currently in the studio working on his upcoming album, this report is false."

Usher's bathroom has ignited a war between the singer and the plumbers who worked on it -- and the next thing to be drained could be Usher's wallet.
Bobo Plumbing Company in Georgia claims they never got paid for the $2,335 worth of work they did on Usher's Georgia mansion back in 2007 -- work that included installing a shampoo bowl in the home's private salon and installing all the plumbing in one of his bathrooms.
But here's the catch -- Bobo's is now suing Usher, claiming if they don't get paid, they should have the right to sell the home and take their payment from the proceeds.
Calls to Usher's peeps have not been returned.

Tameka Foster, the woman who Usher seems bent on divorcing, will not let a little thing like divorce papers get in the way of her marriage. Exhibit A: She's still wearing her wedding ring.
We got the shot at LaGuardia Airport in New York yesterday. Usher seems more than ready to cut ties. We got him at LAX this week minus his wedding band.

If Usher Raymond filed for divorce from his wife Tameka Raymond -- it's news to her.
Here's what we know. Although there are rumors Usher has filed, we're told by sources close to Tameka that she has yet to receive any papers. But our source also tells us Tameka hasn't spoken to Usher "in a few days" and has been trying to get a hold of him the entire time.
As for the courts, there's no record of any filing by Usher.

Usher is giving cameras serious "forgive" me face. He was snapped leaving an L.A. hotel at 1AM Thursday morning. Sources tell us the woman, who seemed to be avoiding the camera, is actually a product manager for the singer.
But with two small kids and a wife at home, Ursh might want to reconsider where he holds future business meetings.
Even puppy dog eyes have their limitations.
