Usher's Wife Is Pissed

Usher

"We (black women) don't like ourselves. If I were Hispanic, Usher would have the sexiest wife alive. If I were mixed, he'd have the sexiest wife alive. "But he has a black girl, and it's like, 'She's horrible and she's ugly!' OK, maybe I don't fit the cookie-cutter standard - 25 and a size two - but this is who he loves."

---Usher's wife Tameka Foster lashes out at 'jealous' fans in Essence magazine

Umm.. no, you idiot! Regardless of color, it really just comes down to you being ugly. Period.

I agree with her. And she's not bitter, she just honestly expressing how she feels. I'm a darker girl and I know what it's like to feel less than atractive based on society's standards. And it's cool if you really thinks she's ugly. But, there are people out there who think that she's ugly based only on the color of her skin and the size of waist. It's just a fact of life for some women.

She has been really dogged out on other websites, probably because she is older with kids from her 1st hubby. That's why she is bitter. But if Usher is happy, I'm happy for him.

She sounds like she has serious self esteem issues, but I guess I don't blame her with all of the criticisms she gets. Good luck to them both and I hope she can get past all of the negativity.

Wow, she's not very complimentary towards her own race saying black woman hate her because she's a black woman and that if she was hispanic or mixed then hispanic or mixed woman would find her sexy. I don't hate her but she does look more like she's about 46 years old then the age she is and she's not exactly gorgeous. I think Usher's fans just think he could have found someone more his own age and beautiful but obviously to him she is so hope they'll be happy.

eww
has she seen her face????/ she's hideous. looks uglier than a man. And there is nothing she can do about it so stop bitching and blaming people who are telling the truth. If she were any shades lighter with that mug, bitch would still be ugly, your face can be white , purple or orange and you still ugly as a dog. Beat it Maneka, just beat it.

Usher's mother, uh I mean wife, is a silly bitch. I think she thought she would get all this respect and envy from woman fans of Usher because she was able to trap him into marriage. Well, as a black woman, not only am I NOT jealous of her, she isn't even on my radar...or the radar of any black woman. Usher's fans thought he would marry that girl from TLC or at least someone younger and more fun. Instead Usher married his mom.

I think the public is put off by her because of all the trash stories of her manipulating him to marry by getting knocked up, his mother's contempt for her, etc. She is right about being treated better if she was asthetically appealing to the public. We all suffer that it some respect. That is our society. Just ask a pretty girl who has gained 30 lbs. and you will see she gets treated more poorly than when she was thin.

Tameka told the truth!!! If Usher had married a white, latina, or bi-racial woman...most black women would turn on him instantly. Tameka is speaking the truth!!!

I too wonder if she has ever looked in the mirror? She looks like a 45 y/o drag queen. She is horrible looking, I would hate to see her w/o her makeup on! OMG that would be a scary sight. No it isn't because you are black it is because you are just plain ol' fugly!!!!

I agree with her and I'm a white girl. Not being "mixed," "Asian," or otherwise "exotic" can really beat up your self esteem.

Is Beyonce mixed? Just curious? Because both her parents look black to me. And what about Iman is she fully black? Is every light skinned black women not fully black. I'd really like to know. I've seen really dark black women that were beautiful. I don't get her issue..Black men only like mixed raced women???

well, why does it always to be a black or white situation? why dont we all love each other equally and learn from our father god.

first, maneka or tameka, be specific and name those black women who do not like themselves. I am very much a black woman and is very much in love with who and whose I am. As a black woman, to me, you crossed the line when you left your other childrn with their father. A real black woman would not have done that. Simply because we are born nurturers. You, obviously was thinking about self. Now, you have a baby for someone else. So is it that your other children were not loved because they father could not provide you and I mean you, with your need for greed. What is the real reason? Put yourself in their place. In their hearts they must realize they are not important enough for you to take care of them. Step up and be a real woman. Bring your kids with you and Usher or can't you? I do not and wished you were not a real black woman for those kids sake. Keep the black woman thoughts out of your mouth because a real woman would have had him (Usher) do the right by CHilli.

She is ugly...and that is just pure ignorance to say if you were another race that it would be different, because you would be ugly if you were white, hispanic, asian...etc.... She is plain out UGLY....and she looks like a man!!!!

Maybe some bangs would help cause the forhead no five head needs to be hidden. And a make over as well. Cuase she is no Chilli, Hell shes not even cute as me and I am a beautiful "Black women". As far as her not having her other kids as a mother of 2 I had my kids at 16 and they have NEVER left my side regardless of what trials I have gone threw I am now 31. To me she has none of my respect!

Many blacks do hate themselves. I've had people make fune of tme for various reasons. U would think that my feelings would be hurt, but I end up feeling sorry for those blacks. Abuse, sex, children...the facts are out there for only God to judge. Who knows what kind of self-hating, child-molesting, baby-making, uneducated so-and-sos are posting to this site! My judgment lies in that I am not too fond of uneducated people (not necessarily a College degree). But I know that I as well as others are simply imperfect. It's not your business who this man marries. She's richer than all of you so don't be jealous. Ur just mad b/c Usher didn't marry u. Maybe he's just trying to keep it real.

I'm so fucking tired of hearing that shit! "If I weren't black..." that's so ridiculous and SO old! I'm tired of any race saying if they were otherwise people would like them more. No, if someone doesn't like you it's because of how YOU are as a person. And I'm WHITE and I have no problem, I'm not mixed, asian, or hispanic and I am damn proud to be a WHITE GIRL! People need to quit being so damn insecure, quit making excuses too cause they don't work, if multiple people dislike you that has something to do with you other than the color of your skin!

Maybe she's ugly but its not being pretty that makes a beautifull wife. Usher is obviously much matured than we expect, we expect him to marry a model who will divorce him and keeps his money.

Tameka Foster has it so right with her comments on black people hating on one another. It is so damn obvious he worships the ground she walks on. She is a lucky woman to find a man like that, he did not go and marry a white woman which a lot of black artistes do. I think they will be very happy together, he obviously likes grown up women, not girls. It often happens when boys are brought up by just their mother. She did a really good job on him

Poor Usher....he spent all this time working hard to stay fit, not going around having babies....only to find some single mother, who's been knocked up and loosened up by 2 guys, who between them she has 3 children and now she has an unsightly pouch for a tummy. What ever happened to single eligible bachelors finding a beautiful single girl, dark or light, that is his and his only and he doesn't have to share her with some other guy and her kids. We are witnessing a severe decline in the traditional American Family. I for one thought men did not want ready made familys.

Yeah she is ugly and that attitude makes her look worst. Damn if you ugly as hell atleast let the world think you are nice with a wonderful personality so we could have some idea of why he chose you.

By NO Means do i believe anyone to jealous of Tameka Foster!... The point is...She decieved Usher's mother just to get close to him... In leau of that, she used her divorce and probably made up shit just so he could feel sorry for her. Furthermor any couple that has to justify their relationship as much as they have done publicly shouldn't be together anyway...So what he knocked her ass up... That's all she wanted from thE get go... I can only imagine what a typical "Girlfriend" conversaton is like with Tameka Foster...She's only a media Scape Goat for Usher...The more they keep forcing it to last the sooner it will be doomed... If the love is true then they'll shut he hell up and laugh it off like J n Bey... No one can define what is real and unreal when it comes to love... but we can define what is natural and fake... Fake+Foster= "F"- FAILURE!!!

She is ugly. That woman does have the big head about herself cause she is wit usher. How he gonna let a bitch come between his mom. The girl already been knocked up 3 times. She probably got no walls but its good to usher. Alot of men probably been up in dat and he just another number added to the list. I really dont think its gonna last they just married for the moment. And its not because she is black. Chilli was pretty and black. I dont understand him. How he's gonna do chilli wrong and he didnt marry her. That boy is messed up. And he is a scientologist. Bra turned his back on God.

She is ugly. Its not about her complextion. There are many beautiful black women out there. I dnt even like mixed girls. Im a black man that loves REAL SISTAHS.My girlfriend is a beautiful black woman. She looks like Gabrielle Union. If usher was wit Gabrielle union do u think anyone would question why. NO BECAUSE SHE IS A BEAUTIFUL BLACK WOMAN.

I love my skin, body, ass and hips, but one thing I dont understand is. Why usher did not introduce you to the world a long time ago. he was proud to be with chilli, and he kept you a secert until. You became pregant, now if any one should be mad it should be you. for being stupid. for not loving your self at first. you are more then usher wife, baby mother, I would assume, you do have other kids, when has he ever introduced you to the world. keep being a secert and live life. keep making babies, what are you going to do when a young lady his age comes by and dose the same thing you are doing, be proud of who you are. I am a product of my mother and father not my husband, tell your self that every day.

I have to say that im on of man fans of Usher that has critized his wife. Im sorry iny opinion she doesnt not fit the standard , even se said it...if she didnt care she woudnt even be sayin such thing. But the thing that matters the most is not that we (the fans) think of her, the thing that matters isthat she makes him happy and regardless of what we think of her, every fan loves to see USHER happy. Yea she doesnt fit the standard for him but im happy because he is happy

BLACK LOVE IS WHAT IT IS. THE REASON YOU FEEL THAT WAY IS BECAUSE YOU KNOW WHAT YOU DID WAS WRONG.AND USHER KNOWS THAT HE LOVES CHILLI. IF CHILLI WOULD HAVE TOOK USHER BACK. USHER AND U WOULD STILL BE JUST FRIENDS. U AND YOUR HUSBAND WOULD HAVE WORK THINGS OUT.AND USHER YOUR WIFE MAY NOT LIKE YOUR MOTHER. BUT SHE MUST RESPECT HER, SHE IS THE WOMAN THAT GAVE LIFE TO U. JUST BE THE BEST PARENT'S IN THE WORLD. AND USHER WHAT ABOUT TRON HE STILL LOVE'S U 2. YALL TAKE CARE AND GOD BLESS YOU.
