Divorce Drama: Usher Denies Being A Bad Bad And Calls Tameka An Ain’t Isht Mom After Demanding A Judge Strip Him Of Child Custody

Things are about to get ugly ! Usher Denies Tameka’s Claims He Is A Bad Father Via TMZ reports: Usher has denied every allegation his ex-wife has made in her motion to wrestle custody away from the singer in the wake of Usher Raymond V’s nearly fatal pool accident — he’s even denied she’s a good mom. In the docs — obtained by TMZ — Usher is not specific about what he’s denying … he just denies, denies, denies. Tameka Raymond made various allegations, including that Usher was an absentee parent for 85% of the month, that his aunt failed to properly supervise the boy at the swimming pool, and that he has said he’d prefer that the nanny raise his kids. Usher denied everything. And there’s this … Tameka claims she’s a capable mother. Usher denied that, too. The hearing is set for 2 PM ET. We’re in court, so stay tuned. Tameka complains Usher travels constantly and uses caregivers to watch the children rather than spending time with the boys himself. Via CNN reports: “Her concern is more about how he prefers to leave them with third-party caregivers, over her. She wants to be able to take care of the kids while he’s gone,” Kinley told CNN on Thursday. “It’s not about the money,” Kinley said. “Tameka still gets child support payments. She wants the kids to be with her, or with Usher. This pool incident, she says, brought the whole incident to a head, and was the impetus to file the emergency motion which will be heard Friday.” Tameka says her ex-husband is “not capable of providing daily care-giving and supervision for the minor children of the parties as petitioner is preparing to film a movie in Panama and has ongoing commitments that require his presence in Los Angeles, New York and various other cities for the Voice and his upcoming album. Raymond blames the swimming accident on “the negligence and failure to properly supervise” the children. Usher’s aunt was in charge of the children when the oldest son “suffered a near-death accident while left unsupervised in a swimming pool,” the motion contends. Usher is a very famous singer therefore he can’t always be home, that shouldn’t make him a negligent father. However, when you start losing kids like goldfish then it might be time to start taking into account their well-being a little more. We just hope these two can get it together for the kids!

From Swap Meet To Trés Chic: The-Dream Gets His Steez Upgraded By GQ, Are You Feelin’ His New Get Up? [Video]

Teddy Ruxpin stays with a questionable steez so we’re happy GQ finally offered the man some free advice. Our homies at GQ sent over this feature on The-Dream, check out the excerpts below: When Terius Nash, a.k.a. The-Dream, isn’t writing and producing mega-hits like Beyoncé’s “Single Ladies” or Rihanna’s “Umbrella,” he’s dropping solo albums (IV Play came out in May). But for a brilliant man, he’s made some bad style choices. Witness Jay-Z’s Grammy dis (“I would like to thank the swap meet for his hat”). Or Google “The-Dream wedding outfit.” The mistake he makes is one a lot of peacocky guys commit: too much of everything. “I’ll go into Bergdorf and see a piece that’s beautiful,” he says. “It may look tacky with my jeans, but I don’t give a fuck.” Speaking of that extra-extra-relaxed-fit denim, it was the first to go. We kept The-Dream in big labels like Band of Outsiders, Dolce & Gabbana, and John Varvatos—he is a megastar, after all—but everything is understated. “The Louboutin sneakers exude what’s hood of me, but with a high-life feeling,” he says. Even for guys who have Tom Ford taste on a Topman budget, there’s no shame in dressing with a little swagger. Just be sure people talk about you for the right reasons. What do you think now, Jay? Do you like The-Dream’s new look? Peep a video of the makeover below: Hit up GQ for their style rules HERE Photo Credit: Eric Ray Davidson / GQ.
