Usher says “You Remind Me” To Get a Divorce. Kelly Back to Sexing Kids. Baby Mommies Embarrass Us All.

She Got it Bad…Usher’s Wife Blindsided by Divorce Filings
Â
A couple of weeks ago I reported that Usher Raymond filed for divorce from his wife, Tameka Foster, who he had been married to for less than two years. The R&B singer insists that the reason for filing his claim was because his marriage was “irretrievably broken”. (Translation: “The Snatch” was growing older and dryer by the minute) Although the couple had been living separately for over a year, Wifey (soon to be Ex…) states that she never saw DIVORCE coming (Come on now Babe, even Stevie Wonder could…). She goes on to support her statement by putting their business on BLAST, swearing that the two of them had been intimate less than a week before he “put her on papers” (Translation: He hit that ol’ azz REAL GOOD right before he went to file just to let her know what she would be missing) Textbook case of “The Student Became the Teacher” Take note Cougars!
Â
Usher’s soon to be ex-wife states in a new court filing that she and the R&B star have not been separated since July 2008 and, in fact, were “intimately together” less than a week before he started divorce proceedings.
She had “every reason to believe her marriage was intact,” her attorney stated in documents filed Monday in Atlanta.
But since it wasn’t, Tameka now wants to make sure that her estranged husband takes care of all of her legal fees pertaining to the split and continues to support his family financially, per the filing.Usher filed for divorce June 12, checking off “irretrievably broken” as his reason to end the marriage and requesting joint custody of the couple’s two sons.
The duo swapped vows in a private civil ceremony in August 2007 and brought family and friends into the mix with a more elaborate set of “I do’s” the following month. Usher’s divorce petition states that they were on the rocks less than a year of their marriage.Â

Q:Â What do you call a male Cougar???
A:Â R. Kelly!!!
Â
Well kids…BEWARE! Kells is at it again. That’s right, it seems that some people just don’t learn their lesson, and if the following accusations are true, this dude seriously has a problem. Just months after he was acquitted of molestation charges and some mo’ for the infamous sex tape he foolishly recorded with a 14 y/o, The Golden Shower, oops, R&B King has once again stepped (and not In the Name of Love) into some ish. Allegedly, The “I Don’t See Nothing Wrong” (obviously) artist is being investigated by Illinois police for statutory rape (Surprise, Surprise). Media Take Out reports:
Â
We spoke with a person close to R Kelly who claims that police came to R Kelly’s home looking for evidence that he is in a relationship with a 17 year old girl.
And according to the allegation, R Kelly and the girl are engaged in a romantic relationship and, while the age of consent in Illinois is 17, police need to establish that R Kelly and the woman were never engaged in any inappropriate sexual activity before her 17th birthday.
Since our initial report, the Olympia Fields Police Department has officially DENIED that R Kelly is under investigation.
But that’s not where the story ends, the National Enquirer is reporting today that a detective with the department, Det. Michael Mayden, confirmed that an investigation is “ongoing” into R Kelly and that authorities plan on questioning R Kelly when he returns from South Africa. The National Enquirer is also reporting that they spoke to a “family friend” to R Kelly who is claiming that the investigation is regarding a relationship with a 17 year old girl.
Â
Bear with me guys…coming from the likes of Media Take Out and The National Enquirer, who knows what the REAL DEAL is. Whatever the case, I’m sure Kelly has some “PISS” poor explanation like, “It wasn’t me”. Anyhoo, I’ll keep you posted.

Babies Mommas and all their Dramas…Predictions of ” Tiny & Toya” Train Wreck Confirmed.
Â
I committed in an earlier post to relay my thoughts on the premier of “Tiny and Toya” which aired Tues on BET. As promised, I watched the show (oh the drudgery) and just as I thought, the title of this article says it all. The 30 minute, 8 episode series chronicles the lives of T.I.’s babies momma, Tiny, and Lil’ Wayne’s Ex-Wife and baby momma to his first (of many) child(ren), Toya (hence the name of the show…How Creative).Â
This debacle of a creation (obviously ridding off the coattails of The Keisha Cole Show) documents the daily lives of these Bammas (baby mammas) and the struggles they endure dealing with ailing relatives, drug addict mothers, bad azz kids, aspiring business ventures, oh…and I almost forgot…the burden of unending designer shopping sprees, “accidental” photo ops, celebrity cocktail parties, facials, mannys and peddys, standing weave appointments, and pseudo RED CARPET appearances. (Whew! The GRUELING life of a rappers girl..or Ex)
 Hey, but don’t take my word for it, you can catch this educational (watch with your young daughters so they can learn firsthand how to snag a rapper) Docudrama on Tuesdays @ 10. Just in case you missed it, I have provided a clip from TRULY inspirational first episode:Â

What do you have against older women dating younger men? Lol. You throw the word “cougar” around like a curse.
News flash; cougars usually have enough sense to make sure the young man is of age, no matter that the age difference is in the double-digits. Ladies–ask for id!
Kelly is no male cougar; he’s a man with a compulsion bigger than his brain, but not his ego.
Tiny & Toya? The less said, the better.

actually, most cougars like myself have far more game than this female…. we don’t need to get knocked up to keep a man nor do we have to play games to get the younger mans money because most if not all of the cougars have our own money, cars , homes ect….. and as far as being dry yeah right, speaking for my self lets just say you would need a bib…lol
love always 30 plus females

I don’t see nothing wrong with a female of her prime dating a PYT(young meat) as long as he is over 18 years old and they love each other!!! So please don’t hate on Tameka she just did what everyone, including white women wanted to do make usher commit for a while, So she had the kids I’m not mad at her, I would have did the same thing but , i would have had more babies….

I just watched a full episode of the tina & toya show and thought it was moving and inspiring for young females – especially girls who come up rough. These young ladies may be wealthy but their mentality and insecurities are certainly of the same mind set of young girls in my community. They set out to address family issues and personal fears …good for them.
