Well, you knew that was going to happen. After Usher's son was rushed to the hospital after a swimming pool accident, Tameka Foster says that Usher is an unfit parent and leaves their kids with people who are not qualified and that she has complained about the aunt that was watching the kids when the accident happened. Apparently the aunt who was watching their son when his hand got stuck in the pool drain has a history of being a little quick with the trigger to spanking and being physical with the children and Tameka has threatened to go to court over her in the past. Luckily their child is going to be ok.
Now, Tameka is going to court and wants primary custody. I don't think she is going to get it, but this aunt, who also once let a stalker in the house might have to go as part of a compromise. Tameka says that Usher is never even there to take care of the kids but just outsources everything. A hearing is scheduled for later this week.
I think children may not be safe in Ushers care
ReplyDeleteit's about money....it's always money
ReplyDeleteMISCH nailed it...for both of them. He wants to keep it; she wants to take it from him.
ReplyDeleteDidn't her own son die in a water accident within the last few years?
ReplyDeleteIf Usher is unfit, what does that make Tameka?
ReplyDeleteA friend of mine once had a job where he met several celebrities and had to act as a gofer for them. He said that Usher was just a complete dick. He demanded that my friend go across town to get him a smoothie that had to be from a specific place. When he got back and gave it to him, Usher took a single sip and then threw it away.
ReplyDeleteNothing to do with Usher's ability to be a parent. Just wanted to share.
@audrey I think he was hit by a jet ski.
ReplyDeleteThat aunt sounds like a genius!
ReplyDeleteYes, he was hit by a jet ski operated by a family friend. I wouldn't blame that on Tameka.
ReplyDeleteBut that child was in Tameka's care at the time. And so if this latest pool incident is her reason for filing for custody this week, shouldn't her own parenting be called into question?
ReplyDelete@audrey. No, that child was in his father's care at the time. Usher lent his jet to Tameka so that she could get to the hospital to be with him (and she later accused him of doing that to make himself look good in their custody battle.)
DeleteShe sounds like a nice person.
DeleteIf my kid was in ICU I would be with them in the hospital, not in front of a camera with a Lawyer! She's after more money.
ReplyDeleteI might not blame anyone for either accident. We all know how fast kids can from zero to dangerous. The aunt actually was right there, tried to get him, called 911- she probably saved his life by yelling and attracting attention of nearby workers. Usher was there BEFORE ambulance left, so he wasnt that uninvolved or far away. As for the aunt hitting, if thats true i wld have issue with that as well.
ReplyDeleteAnd cant these rich ass celebrities, with money to burn, HIRE A LIFEGUARD FOR THEIR DAMN POOLS!!!!!!!!
DeleteFar more children die every year in pool accidents than gun accidents, say economists.
ReplyDeleteI don't like Usher or Tameka. They both need to grow up. Those poor kids have been through enough in their short lives.
ReplyDeleteTheir family has fallen apart, their brother died and they are being pulled from pillar to post and used as pawns.
I've said it before but you are supposed to love your kids more than you hate your ex.
Children are not points in a game.
How and why did she lose the kids in the first place? Was it she didn't have the money or the pull to fight him? I don't understand how she not only lost custody but has such limited visitation
ReplyDeleteShes nuts!
DeleteCrazy the pool wasnt up to code - the filter should no have been exposed enough that his little hand or arm was stuck. Poor kid...
ReplyDeleteI hope she wins.
ReplyDeletepawns in a game of money
