If You Didn't Like Her Already….
Filed under: Usher
Usher's wife is a piece of cake!
Tameka Foster is talking to Essence magazine and ranting about the public's perception of her.
She says:
"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. There are women getting raped in Darfur, young girls being turned out every single day right here in Atlanta. We have bigger issues to worry about than two people in love with each other".
We're not a black woman, and we don't like her.
Do U like Tameka???

im sorry i just dont like the way her face looks. scary…eeekkk
Er…why is there 287 comments about these two people. Is everyone that sad to express their opinions on a gold digger who will probably spit on you if you asked for money. And tbh, no one will read your fucked up opinions dicatating your love or hate for someone who doesn't even know you exsist. Now after i am done ranting, I seen a pop up at the top of the page that has intrested me; a man under a bus! Wow! Btw, writing first is too immature to measure the level of immaturity you people are.
HELL NO!and i'm white but this doesn't mean i'm a racist.i like some black people,like martin louther King for example.and this bitch is not martin louther king.
If she's such a black woman, why does she straighten her hair to look like a white girl? Guess she hates black women, too.
Who cares what she has to say, she is a nobody & just cuz she married a somebody doesnt make her shit. I dont like her cuz Usher has always seemed like a nice guy & I think he got played. Her baby-makin'-a$$ made damn sure to get pregnant cuz now no matter what happens she is set for life cuz shes got his kid. She is DRAMA & looks like a tranny!!!
But what is she doing about Darfur? Heck a woman has a class that names it's class mascot "Mohamed" and the people want that teacher dead. I ask again, what is Tameka doing about that? Where is her outrage?
um. usher isn't that cute in the face either. they deserve each other because they look like twin brothers. peace.
NOBODY LIKES BLACK WOMAN, AND THIS IS A REASON WHY: DRAMA QUEENS.
A PERSON WITH DIGNITY WOULD STAY OUT OF THE PUBLIC EYE, BECAUSE YOU CAN'T CONTROL WHAT PEOPLE WOULD SAY. SHE KNOWS SHE'S NOT ATRACTIVE BY TODAY'S STANDARDS, WE LIVE IN A SUPERFICIAL SOCIETY…LOOK AT THIS SITE.
99% OF BLACK WOMEN HAVE A SOUR NEED TO BE DRAMATIC AND MILITANT, AND THAT'S BECAUSE THEY HAVE A NEGATIVE COMPLEX IN THEIR GENES, AND NEED DRAMA TO COMPENSATE. BLACK MEN TREAT THEM LIKE SHIT. I AM NOT A RACIST, BUT I KNOW THIS FROM EXPERIENCE. I AM HISPANIC AND DON'T LIKE PUERTO RICAN GIRLS EITHER. WE ALL HAVE OUR STEREOTYPES.

TAMEKA, YOU CAN NEVER COMPARE YOURSELF TO BEAUTIFUL HISPANIC WOMEN. KEEP DREAMING GIRL……..

She sounds stupid. When "celebs" want themselves to sound "clever" they usually mention some well-known crisis that EVERYONE is talking about. Right now it's "fashionable" to be interested in Darfur. World Politics is like an accessory to celebs, they bring it up when they need it, but they don't actually DO anything about it. The interest is all pretend.
I don't know her to like her or hate her, but I think there is something to be said about what she said. There is alot of truth and reality to that.
Black women dont like her cuz they are jealous, and have f-ed up priorities. Usher owes none of you hookers an explanation of anything. Go to college, get a degree, and make your own money…..stop whining about black men marrying whoever they want to marry. As many of you as there are that get beat up on a daily basis and have to deal with black men and their violence, you ought to be happy that one more of them is off the prowl. Just please stop whining, you're starting to sound like that crazy scarecrow Star Jones, and we all know what she has resorted to: marrying a big queen. I bet she gives real good strap-on, huh Al?? LOL….
Yes I do like her. She's right. I am white, and yet I understand. She's DAMN RIGHT
What's wrong with her? It's his life, if he wants to marry an older woman, it's fine. Women marry older men all the time. I like her, she's whatever.
What is up with Usher? It's okay to like strong women but come on, is he trying to find another mother? Isn't she like almost his mom's age? She's trash..Poor Usher.. At least he'll have new material to write about when she breaks his heart and takes all his money!
Nope…she's a gold digger and shes got man hands
Will smith's wife is black is she not? And everyone LOVES Jada!!
Re: not stupid –
Interesting point. Hmm. I'll have to agree that the race card argment is a interesting diversion from the age difference between the couple (her & Usher). Hopefully, they will weather the Newlywed Years without a hitch which isn't always the case for high profile couple regardless of race.
A. I'm black and don't like her.
B. No one is discriminating against her…there are tons of hot black girls out there. Her saying this just makes me think she's insecure about the way she looks.
fuck you racist
People dont like her cause she's a fucking BITCH! It has nothing to do with her race, and the fact that she looks like a MAN with a bad wig doesn't help matters either.
I'm mixed (half white/half black) and blacks are always jealous of mixed people.
Okay…
As a Black Woman I nominate her to step up on the smack dat hoe stand!!
I love myself and I love being Black! That doesn't have a darn thing to do with the fact that she looks like a dayum tranny! Seriusly…She looks like Usher in a dress!!! Who is she? She's a nobody with a once A -List celebrity Hubby who's now slipped down to a notch above Nick Lachey! What she fails to realize is that no one really cares about her and their "new found tranny to manny love"!! I could care less if he married a white woman, a Latina, an Arab, or an Asian! Quite honestly she wants people to care! Thats the only way she's gonna get any attention! She, as a Balck Woman, needs to check herself! I more than like myself, and I believe it's her who has the self hating issues! She wan't to be accepted by everyone and because she's not she wants to blame it on Black Women not liking ourselves! Personally…I believe that Black Women are THE MOST BEAUTIFUL WOMEN IN THE WORLD! She should really think before she speaks! Especially if she's going to be be doing all types of interviews in magazines which are read by large amounts of these "Self Hating Black Women"!
Ok..ok..enough of this "I don't get the attention I think I deserve so let's pull the race card once again bullshit!!" Bitch…it's just that nobody likes your pathetic cunt faced ass! It has nothing to do with the fact that you are as black as a struck match! Oh when oh when oh when will the "because I am black" card stop being used????!! There are alot of beautiful black women/celebs out there honey…you are just NOT one of them. Stop trying to make a name for yourself because you married BOOTNOSE. No one cares for you mama!
Yea, I didn't like her before, but I do now. She's right. People have criticized her almost entirely on the fact that she isn't some flaming hot, size 2, twenty-five year old.
Good for her.
she is ugly and has 3 kids that aren't Usher's. Somehow i think he was blackmailed into this relationship..
What a dumb Bitch!!! You know she trapped Usher by getting pregnant, how else is an old hag like her to keep a young man like Usher? He can do A LOT better than her, and he shouldnt have to be with her just because they have a baby together. You all know thats why they got married. Why do men stay with a woman for their baby? You can be there for a kid and NOT be with the mom. Sheesh. SHe is flattering herself thinking that people actually care about her, Nobody even knew she exhisted until Usher knocked her up. STAY OUT OF THE PUBLIC EYE TAMEKA……CHECK YOURSELF INTO A SENIOR CENTER, YOUR ONLY A COUPLE YEARS FROM BEING A SENIOR. YOU WOULD BE DOING EVERYONE A HUGE FAVOR.
That is the most stupidest shit I've ever read! I don't like her because she comes off like a hard nosed, greedy bitch. Not beacuse she "black". Now I really don't liker her because she's a bumb ass too.
What an ignorant dumb a$$. As if trying to play the race card would gain her any sympathy. I'm sure there are 1000 other sexy, under 25, intelligent black women Usher could have married. Pleeeeeeease!
what a stupid stupid stupid thing to say.
someone needs to let Tamika know that we don't like her not because she is black. we don't like her because she opens her mouth and just rants. Usher could have done much better, she got pregnant and like a fool he married her despite the fact that she has three other kids with how many other men?
I dont like her at all.
for once i agree with her on something!
Re: Miss Thang ….. – Can you please refrain from placing ALL Black people in the "I hate dark skinned Blacks" category! To me there is nothing more beautiful than a Richly Chocolate Warmth of Charcoal Black Person! I make it a point to tan in the summer so that the color of my skin can reach it's maximum Beauty! The blacker the berry…
Re: DeAnna –
Your sketism is warranted . Hopefully, his marriage is a diversion with use of a hag just like purple wearing heel artist that played the Supebowl last year.
After reading the Essence article, I respected her more. She's absolutely right, she doesn't fit the beauty standards set primarily by white america. Usher didn't choose a trophy wife of some sorts that was white and/or super light skinned with curly hair. He chose a beautiful black woman. Kudos to Usher for not buying into the hype and staying true.
I don't care for her. I'm a black woman and I still think she looks like a man!! He could have done much better, but if he's really in love with her and not her va jay jay then it really shouldn't matter what people think.
I'm not a black women and I don't like her but it has NOTHING to do with the fact that she's black. That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard! I don't like her because she's ugly and she has too many kids and I think Usher could and should have done better. He was better off with Chili, at least she didn't have a bunch of kids!
I hate her
I am a black Woman and she is ugly. I can only imagine what the child looks like. He isn't all that great looking himself. He looks like a RAT or from the movie "the gods must be crazy" LOL
GIRL YOU ARE FUCKING UGLIER THAN SIN.
i KNOW ABOUT 30 OTHER WOMEN IN THEIR 50s who 10 times better than you.
You look like the turn i shat today. And that was being generous!
I'm not feeling her because she's old, looks kinda of like a man, and seems like a former groupie who finally got her a star. She needs to quit it with eluding to Darfur, etc. Girlfriend knows she loves some attention. Ghetto ass.
I agree with Becca
I didn't like her before… but I do now.
I live in Atlanta and she is absolutely right
I'm a black women. Who told her that black women don't like themselves, her X-husband. We love ourselves, we are beautiful 24/7. We understand what it takes to be a loving girlfriend and wife. Only the ones who are insecure will get pregnant to keep a man. If she was worth anything she would have used some kind of protection. Give Usher sometime he will see her for who she really is. If she believed and commentment she would still be with her first husband. Old women got that young buck whipped!!!!!!!

WOW! I really know nothing about the girl but I did hear about her feud with Ushers mom. I thought maybe Usher is a mommas boy and mom had a hard time letting go, because I was in a similar situation, and no the relationship didn't work out. However, I guess the truth is that Usher's mother was right to not like Tamika in the first place, because I sure as hell don't.
Ok, I've never been to this website previously. My girlfriend sent me a link to see one of these stories. I can't believe all of these comments. It seems that each of you are either a racists, a total fag, or some little loser kid. You guys actually sit around all day and make despicable , judgemental comments about celebreties that YOU DO NOT KNOW AT ALL. My God, get a life. I guess this is what unsuccessful people do when successful people are out accomplishing things. The internet is nothing but a haven for cowards. You judge all of these people about their looks, their clothes, their successes and their lovers when you know damn well you fall far behind them in each and every category. Get off of the computer, go outside and do something productive with the lives God blessed you with. LOSERS!
In a Kanye like voice "Perez Hilton does not care about Black people". Seriously though the person who said Blacks aren't discriminated against because this isn't the 1700s obviously hadn't heard about all the nooses being hung on Black people's door and trees and the like. Racism is alive and kicking. But I could care less, I just want you all to buy my book "Heaven's Fury" cowritten by 50Cent. While you're at it, buy my other books "The Rolexxx Club" and "Queen of Miami".
no she is ugly lol he is too cute for her
?????????
Please, I didn't like her before this interview and it's not because of her race. I didn't like her because of her! I'm not impressed nor interested in what she stands for or has to say about her present lifestyle. I believe she is finding it easy to play the 'race' card than accepting that she is unlikeable. This is Usher's problem, not a black problem!!
I'm a black woman and I don't like her old cougar ass either.
I have to admit, at first I did think that about her but yes I do like her. Good for her for her for saying that, she is absolutley right. Love is blind. She's not ugly but she is not the "exotic" "beautiful" woman I would expect him to be with. It actually makes me have me respect for both of them. I am happy for them, I hope they make it for the long haul. Marriage is tough, I am sure it is even worse in Hollywood being under a microscope. Bottom line, he loves her and nobody has the right to talk shit.
she looks like a tranny. has nothing to do with her being black she's a ugly tranny at that.
she looks like a tranny. has nothing to do with her being black she's a ugly tranny at that.
I didn't like her until she just mentioned Darfur… shows she at least has some intelligence and concern
She's rambling. Is she high?
Bitch I am black and I it really has nothing to with race. She's acts if women are just dying to be with Usher. I from his original hometown in Chattanooga TN and all of us down here knows that he is GAY!! Bitch please.
I'm a black woman and I hate her. And no its not because she's black..It's because she's a bitch
I think they make a cute couple. He is just as pretty as she is. Someone need to recommend to her that she needs to hang out with some real black girls. I've seen black girls 3 times her size that love themself from top to bottom. Usher mother had to see something in her that he can't see. Usher is blinded by love for now. When his vision comes back he will see that "Mother knows best." Good Luck Usher. Can I have your baby next. I Love you.
girl is in denial..she is rude. my friend works at a high end boutique in atlanta where tameka visits frequently..she is always rude to everyone who works in the boutique. she acts like she is above others..ive even heard of her attitude in restaurants in atlanta..and its not pretty. so honestly tameka its not because you are black and a woman..its because you are a bitch. stop hiding behind the race card..its so 1990s.
I'm dark skinned and I don't like her. Its not because she's dark its because she says stupid shit like what she said above. I think shes manipulative, and idiotic. I think usher could have done better than some has been stylist with 3 kids from some man she cheated on. You get what you give, you'll get yours henry higgins.
she is so fucking ugly and has a gang of kids already maybe he thinks if he marrys an ugly one then she will stick around and be a house wife and not try to run around on him but did i mention how ugly she is?
OMG is she serious? She could be the queen of england and she would still be regarded as the ugly ugly woman that left her three children to chase the money trail. You fine folks must not know the history. Love my left foot shes been plotting this forever and how stupid do u have to be to have a baby with a woman that ditched her first three kids. And did u know she sells stolen goods??
No I think she looks like she could be ushers older brother
hell no i dont like that bitch! i liked chilly and usher is brain washed he dissed his mother and his career is going nowhere..+ dont the bitch got like 7 kids that she wanted usher to pay child support on if they broke up! bitch is crazy
I'm not a black woman and I don't like her. I'll donate extra money to charity on top of what I already donate just to make up for caring about this. I feel bad for saying this but their kid is not going to be cute.
But you don't like black women. YOu hate them you commi piece of crap
der you are a racist and black people probably doesn't like u either!
what the hell is she talking about shes not making any sense dont speak for all black woman i know she aint speaking for me im proud to be african american obviously she isnt
Re: not stupid –
N.S.> I would have to agree that the race card arguement is great diversion for the obvious difference in age between her & Usher. If this marriage stands the test of time than, everyone level of skepticism of her being of hag will be put to rest. She has to understand what comes w/the territory of high profile marriages & relationships regardless of the race of celebrity.
She is so ugly. She looks like a man. He should just be gay!
I'M ON TEAM MANEKA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SHE HAS SINGLE HANDEDLY RUINED USHER'S CAREER. These are the reasons that nobody likes you. You gotta love a train wreck! Our disgust with you has nothing to do with the color of your skin. Get over yourself you ugly bitch! I am also an African American and I am beautiful both inside and out. I truly believe that Blacks have tremendous pride in their race and heritage. We have numerous saying that support my theory … "good black don't crack", "the blacker the berry the sweeter the juice", "once you go black you never go back"…the list goes on. Just because you don't like your own ugly ignorant ass or your race doesn't mean that we (other african american women) feel the same way about themselves or other african american women. I love the color of my skin, the texture of my hair, the shape of my body, and the blood running through my veins. Learn to love yourself and others will learn to love you.
I like you! What's not to like? 1) HIS MOTHER HATES HER. 2) SHE CHEATED ON HER HUSBAND, THE FATHER OF HER CHILDREN WITH HER EMPLOYER (USHER). 3) SHE IS EIGHTY YEARS HIS SENIOR (you go grandma). 4) SHE A FELON AND WAS CONVICTED OF WELFARE FRAUD. 5) SHE TRAPPED HIM BY GETTING KNOCKED UP (great plan). 6) SHE WOULDN'T ALLOW HER MOTHER TO COME TO HER WEDDING WITHOUT HER TEETH . 7) SHE NEVER SEEN WITH HER CHILDREN NOR DOES SHE HAVE CUSTODY OF THEM. WHAT KIND OF MOTHER ABANDONS HER KIDS FOR A PIECE OF DICK?
does mixed in america mean something different than in the rest of the world? she IS mixed, because (just saying) folks in africa are a lot BLACKER than she is - she's definitely not totally black. she's definitely got white in her (and so has he).
Black people are generally gross b/c of their predisposition to have black lines around their pits and on every other crevice of their skindeds. Plus, their hair is usually atrocious w/o intervention.
Hell no and I don't like usher either soooooooo next !
She is DEAD WRONG!!! Maybe she is not the hottest woman alive because she is not hot. Do not blame ME because Usher has horrible taste in women?!?! Good….more HOT chicks for me. He can do like 10 million times better!! Get over yourself sweetheart. Most intelligent men have already. What an idiot Usher is. Don't worry, though. She will get half his stuff after he cheats on her with someone that IS hot. Ethnicity and color have nothing to do with the fact that she is not hot either.
Re: der – well too bad cuz we hate ya'll too
HA! you're just UGLY it don't matter what color you are. you'll NEVER be the sexiest woman alive!!!
LOL! you so stupid, stupid.
Ummm…it's not that she's not sexy….it's not that she's black…she just looks too OLD next to him!!! Being Chili's follow up surely would be no piece of cake for anyone!
She's totally right - there ARE more important things with which we should all be concerned. Society as a whole today just gets off WAY too much on putting others down, usually over stupid stuff, like who is too skinny or too fat, or who's a bitch, etc. We do that to feel better about ourselves, not at all considering the other person's feelings. I can't say, nor can anyone else say honestly, one way or another about liking this woman, because let's be honest, people, NONE of us know her. Let's quit judging other people. Quite honestly, it's getting old.
if his mama doesn't like you then there must be something wrong with you
What a FUCKING nasty whore!
what does race have to do with anything…i almost feel like she is talking crap about black women. I think a lot of black women know that they are beautiful and don't need her saying "we black women" NO you just say "i think i am fat and a whore!!!!
I dont think she's attractive whatsoever, reguardless of any skin color, every race has its ugly.
/
/
I think black girls are pretty, but they fuck black guys so I dont like them..lol Its not racist but insecurity..haha I bet millions of guys feel the same way!!
I don't like her, but I can't say she's wrong.
Tameka is cool. I'm glad Usher married a normal down to earth girl instead of some cookie cutter skank, trophy wife looking, cosmetic surgery enhanced, anorexiant model ho like most of these other male superstars end up marrying or having babies with.
Im mixed and beautiful, so she is right about that..LOL Got the best of both worlds.
She has a point and like poster #3 Becca I didn't like her before but she got my respect on that comment re "bigger issues to worry about"
look, let's be honest: usher is an ugly mommy's boy. he should thank his lucky stars he found someone who would put up with that and have his baby. she deserves a medal for putting up with his dominant mother. the only thing usher has going for him is his money.
GOD BLESS YOU JUSTIN! OBVIOUSLY YOU ARE THE IGNORANT ONE, PLEASE TRY TO EXPAND YOUR VOCABULARY. I GUESS IGNORANCE REALLY IS BLISS. THE KKK IS ALIVE AND WELL IN YOUR HEART. BEFORE YOU MAKE IGNORANT UNFOUNDED STATEMENTS CHECK YOUR FACT. BLACKS ARE NOT THE MAJORITY ON SCHOLARSHIP OR WELFARE.
i pray ur not that ignorant
She's right Usher chose a "black" woman over the light skinned or white woman so everybody have something to say. I say good luck and may God bless the two of u.

whatever she's just mad everyone is calling her a man.. of course she has to throw in darfur to sound witty and has self esteem… but why bring it up if she's not upset? either way… its not just her looks.. but from the way she treats people.. its all over the industry.. he's tryin' to take over usher.. thats all she's got…
The peception of her is incredibly interesting. I mean with regards to the age thing, wasn't Chilli about 8-9 years his senior when they dated? I do not remember the fans and the press making a big issue about that. Chilli is not light skinned, a career woman and confident. All the things Tameka seems to come across. Yet she gets all this hate. I just think there may something about Tameka that people don't like. I heard she is a scientologist. Those pesky aliens have brain washed young Usher.
The truth of the matter is, she is ugly and while she isn't fat, she should lose some weight. She is nothing but an old, baby making, gold digger.
