Usher, Why You Mad, Son?

Between this and Vannessa Bryant cussing folks out repeatedly in the presence of her two children, I don't know what the hell is going on.

Love. Does that make them craaaaazy? Possibly.


Usher damn near lost his damn mind on yesterday's TRL talking about his new album Here I Stand. He then saw this as an opportunity to take up and take up hard for his wife Tameka. I know he got to be on top that night when he got home.

MeikiSquared is taking up a collection to buy Usher a cookie that he so desperately needs as congratulations for being asomewhat decent human being.


@ 2:18 mark:
Usher: I love my wife very,very much. A little rumor earlier this week about us separating, it ain't true, we in love **flashes ring on finger**. Get out of there!


Host: Well, in a few, fans are going to get a chance to, uh, ask Usher some...


Usher: Matter of fact, I'm tired of people continuing to talk so much trash about me, you know what I'm saying? Me and my relationship. My wife is not 40 years old. I love her to death and I'm a black strong man in America standing up for my people as a...as a man to my wife, to my son, to my family. I'm making a stand that a lot of us should make! I could've been like any other man who would have a child and ya know, live with that woman and continue to just play the game...

...but you know, differently, I'm trying to do it the right way. This is the way you should do it. Pay attention fellas.


Host: **visibly pissed and finally regaining control** That's it! And there's nothing left to say and a few fans are gonna to get the chance to ask Usher a couple of personal questions. Today we're showing you videos that made his...


Usher: OH, AND MY WIFE HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH ME FIRING MY MOTHER OR NOTHING LIKE THAT!


Host: Wow...


Usher: THAT'S TRASH! THAT'S TRASH. I HEAR YA'LL TALKIN' CRAZY OUT THERE. SHE'S A BEAUTIFUL BLACK WOMAN!


Usher: STOP! STOP TALKING! AND I LOVE HER!

STOP IT!


Host: Goodnight everybody!...


Usher: I'm not done! Can I say something else?



Um, okay. So much going on here. Usher started ranting on this tangent about gossips getting his wife Tameka's age wrong. Okay, so she ain't 40 years old. 42? He began defending his relationship against rumor mills and then started explaining how he's a stand-up black man and how he is an example for all men who knock up their chicks.

And then he started bringing up old ish from back in the days when FUBU was still in style. That's when he lost me.

Daaamn, Ursh, we know your new album sucks, but is this the best way to deflect from that fact?

Here you go Usher, for doing what you're supposed to do and for being an example to my future sons...

((slow clap))
