THE HOOPLA ON USHER & TAMEKA'S WEDDING WEEKEND
Gossip pages are swarming with reports of Usher marrying his wife to be, Tameka Foster, this weekend at L.A Reid's house in the Hamptons. Considering that Usher's album doesn't come out until November (which is also the same time as the birth of his first child and her fourth), wouldn't Usher want to get marry around the album release date to tie into the title of his album, "The Untold Story?" Publicity around the album release is ideal. Prior to his engagement to Tameka, all Usher had to go on publicly wise is the launch of his NYC wine bar and fragrance line. There's talks of Robin Thicke, a friend of Usher, performing at the wedding:
And Robin Thicke’s Friday night opening of Beyonce’s summer tour has sparked speculation that the blue-eyed soul crooner with be singing at the wedding. Robin sang the track ‘Angels’ and dedicated it to a couple who will soon be married before alluding that he may sing the track at their upcoming wedding. [source]
In spite of a recent run down with Chilli at Jonetta Patton's (Usher's mother) house, the wedding weekend in the Hamptons may get pushed back due to an explosive revelation by Tameka's sister Valencia Foster:
"Poor Usher has no idea who he’s marrying," Temeka’s half sister Valencia Foster told The ENQUIRER. "He’s a wonderful guy- but Tameka is giving him a big-time snow job." Valencia, 49, explained that Usher led a prayer before dinner, then turned to her and said: "’You know all the family secrets- tell me about them.’ Before I could say a word, Tameka kicked me so hard under the table she almost put a hole in my leg," Valencia said. "Then she pulled me aside and whispered: ‘Don’t tell him anything.’" [via Sandra Rose]
If this wedding doesn't go down this weekend, you already know it's going to be around the time of his album release. Valencia is trying to be just as famous before Tameka and Usher makes it official. Damn...
not even Usher's brother JLACK is selling him out like that. Things that make me go hmmm...
