Usher Brings Michael Jackson Back To Life Through Karaoke {Video}

August 9, 2012 By Madam Prezident Leave a Comment

According to TMZ: Where there is love, Usher will BE THERE — or so he promised earlier this week at an L.A. bar … during a pretty incredible karaoke rendition of the Jackson 5′s “I’ll Be There” … and it was all caught on tape.

The song requires some pretty impressive falsetto — but Usher hit ALL the notes early Tuesday morning at Rock & Reilly’s on the Sunset Strip … and the crowd loved every second of it, singing along the whole time.

Sources tell TMZ, Usher had been hanging out upstairs in a private area with friends throughout the night — but came down around 1am to show the bar how karaoke is REALLY done.

(It’s a pretty ironic song choice — considering Usher was NOT there … at his stepson’s funeral two weeks ago … though the singer never explained why.)

Nevertheless — tough act to follow.

Tameka Says “Usher’s Behavior Around Kile Glover’s Death Was Bogus”

August 2, 2012 By Madam Prezident 5 Comments

The baby’s body is barely buried and people are already fighting. This is just ignorant.

Sources are reporting that Tameka Raymond isn’t happy with the way Usher acted during the recent death of her 11-year old son, Kile Glover.

She says that Usher only visited Kile once in the hospital, and is even appearing to insinuate that he is using Kile’s death as an excuse to postpone their divorce settlement.

Tameka, in her on-going quest to get access to money she never worked for, filed documents that accuse Usher of using the death of her son, Kile Glover, to gain the sympathy of his fans and the media.

Usher’s lawyers asked for the delay in the court proceedings due to the “unnecessary stress and strain” for himself, Tameka and their two minor children “in the immediate wake of this tragedy,” Tameka says he’s full of it.
Maybe Tameka herself is also going to use Kyle’s death as a “get of court free” card. I’m sure that somewhere in the custody battle, when she’s fighting for as much child support as she can get, she’s going to mention how she’s a grieving mom who needs to have her kids. The game works both ways girl, so stop hating the opposing player.

Usher Proceeds With Custody Battle Against Tameka Foster

August 2, 2012 By Madam Prezident 13 Comments

They are at it again!

Usher Plans To Continue Custody Battle With Tameka Foster

Although Tameka Foster is clearly still grieving the loss of her son Kile, her ex-husband Usher can’t see ‘em coming down his eyes, so he’s gotta make the mom cry. The R&B superstar is said to have plans to continue his heated battle with Tameka for custody of his two children Usher Raymond V and Naviyd.

Not only is the trial going to continue, people close to Tameka seem to think that “Ursha” used Kile’s death to gain some sort of PR advantage and gain sympathy from his fans.

We feel like the only reason he came at all is because the media kept portraying Kile as “Usher’s stepson.”
He wasn’t supportive to the family at all and we feel he used the situation to draw sympathy from his fans.
The sad thing about this entire situation is that Tameka swallowed her pride and actually reached out to Usher while Kile was hospitalized.
She could never get him on the phone so she left a message begging him to help her with some of the expenses her insurance wouldn’t cover.
He never returned her calls and when Kile passed away Tameka reached out to him again and he still hasn’t responded to this day.
It’s my understanding that they’re scheduled to resume the case in court Aug. 13th.

Looks like the rumors that Ursh was dropping the case was just a bunch of BS.

Usher had no intention of dropping that custody dispute and his high powered PR team leaked that fake story about him wanting to settle, hoping fans would think that it was Tameka who is being uncooperative but that is so far from the truth.

What an azzhole! Do you think that Usher is dead azz wrong to be acting like this or is he perfectly within his rights?

Rest In Peace Kile Glover: Usher’s Stepson & Tameka’s Son Passes After Being Taken Off Life Support

July 21, 2012 By Madam Prezident Leave a Comment

We were heartbroken to learn that Tameka Raymond’s son Kile, Usher’s 11-year-old stepson was unable to overcome the injuries he suffered during an accident earlier this month.

Kile died after being taken off life support today.

According to TMZ reports:

Usher’s 11-year-old stepson has passed away this morning from injuries suffered in a tragic jetski accident in Georgia earlier this month … TMZ has learned.
Doctors removed 11-year-old Kile Glover from life support after it was determined the injuries were too severe to overcome. We’re told Kyle’s mother, Tameka Foster, struggled tremendously with the decision.
According to our sources, Tameka is understandably devastated.
Glover was injured on July 8 … as he was riding in an inner tube that was connected to a pontoon in Lake Lanier. According to authorities, a family friend who was riding a jetski behind the pontoon lost control and collided with Glover’s tube.
The accident is currently under investigation.

Yesterday Tameka tweeted a single photo of Kile and his younger brother Cinco (Usher V):

We are devastated by this news and want to extend our heartfelt condolences to the Foster, Glover and Raymond families.

Our thoughts are with them at this time. May God give them the strength to overcome this sad time.

Meaningful Blessings.

Tameka Says “I Will Never Take My Son Off Life Support”

July 17, 2012 By Madam Prezident 12 Comments

According To Sandra Rose and her reliable sources

“According to a source within Tameka Foster-Raymond’s camp, the grieving mom will never take her son off a ventilator “as long as there is life in him.”

Kile Glover, 11, was critically injured on July 6 when he suffered closed head trauma in a Jet Ski accident on Lake Lanier. Kile is the son of Tameka Foster and local businessman Ryan Glover. Foster is the ex-wife of singer Usher Raymond.

“He’s not dead,” the source told Sandrarose.com. She said Kile responds to painful stimuli but not tactile stimuli (light touching) — and that’s enough for Tameka to keep Kile on a ventilator which breathes for him.

The source, who spoke to Sandrarose.com anonymously, also disputed reports that Tameka’s insurance company would force Tameka to take Kile off the vent. She said Tameka and Ryan’s insurance will continue to pay Kile’s medical needs until, he either dies (from his brain injuries) or he is transferred to a long-term care facility.

The source said the family continues to pray for more signs of Kile’s recovery, though doctors don’t give them much hope. “He’s alive, and as long as he responds to pain, the family has hope,” said the confidential source.”

Keep them in your prayers.

Tameka Can’t Afford To Keep Kyle On Life Support Much Longer

July 15, 2012 By Madam Prezident 1 Comment

This is so sad!

According to TMZ: Usher‘s ex-wife – Tameka Raymond – will be forced to take her 11-year-old son off life-support as early as next month, TMZ has learned, all because his insurance coverage is about to expire.

Sources close to the family tell TMZ … Tameka has not lost hope that her son, Kyle Glover, can make a drastic recovery … despite doctors declaring him brain dead last week following a jet ski accident. We’re told she is telling friends … she still believes in miracles.

According to our sources, Tameka can only keep Kyle on life-support as long as her insurance company agrees to pay … otherwise she doesn’t have the funds to cover the enormous hospital bills.

We’re told the insurance company hasn’t set a specific deadline, but they’ve made it clear … they’re only willing to shell out coverage for a couple months … tops.

Our sources say that Usher — who helped raise Kyle for several years — has been incredibly supportive in this difficult time… but has NOT offered to pay for any medical bills. We’re told Tameka does not see him as a viable financial option.

As TMZ first reported, Kyle was struck in the head by a jet ski while inner tubing on Lake Lanier — doctors declared him brain dead days later.

Usher Looking To Settle Child Custody Case With Ex-Wife Tameka Raymond

July 12, 2012 By Madam Prezident Leave a Comment

It seems that the tragic accident involving Tameka Raymond’s son Kile has helped bring a softer side out of her ex-husband Usher:

According to TMZ reports:

Usher has changed his tune and now wants to up his ante to settle his epic child support/custody war with Tameka Raymond after the jet ski accident that left his stepson Kyle brain dead … TMZ has learned.
Sources connected with the couple tell TMZ … Usher spoke with Tameka over the weekend and suggested that they settle up, but he did not significantly change his offer — 50/50 custody with a very slight increase in child support. Tameka said no way.
But apparently Usher softened after the conversation, because our sources say he met with his lawyers earlier this week and instructed them to craft a new proposal that would give Tameka “a majority” of custody, though the sources did not specify the exact breakdown. We’re told Usher is also raising his child support offer “significantly.”
As for Usher’s motivation … we’re told he’s very conscious that Tameka is suffering and it’s not a good move to continue the fight under the circumstances.
We’re told the offer has not been presented to Tameka yet, but our sources say she’s open to a “reasonable settlement.”
Calls to lawyers on both sides have not been returned.

These are such sad circumstances but it seems as if something positive can still come out of this tragedy.

Our prayers are with the Foster, Glover and Raymond families right now.

Tameka Speaks Out: A Family Friend Was On The Jet Ski That Injured Kyle Glover

July 11, 2012 By Madam Prezident Leave a Comment

Accoding to Theybf:

Tameka Raymond‘s son Kyle (also reported as Kile) remains hospitalized after his jet ski accident this weekend on Lake Lanier in Atlanta. And it’s being reported that the man on the jet ski that hit Kyle was a family friend. And he is now under investigation.

Tameka has also reportedly spoken out with brief words about the status of her little boy.

Radar Online reports that they spoke to Tameka in the midst of Kyle fighting for his life at Children’s Healthcare at Egelston Hospital in Atlanta. When based about his critical status, after being declared “brain dead,” Tameka allegedly told the site these simple words:

“He’s bad.”

On an unconfirmed Facebook account claiming to be Tameka Raymond’s, these words appeared:

“Kyle, You are strong.. You’ll be saved I know it. I love you my baby. I need all #Prayers for my son! thanks you everybody!”

Reports have also surfaced that an investigation has been launched into family friend Jeffery Hubbard. He was named as the man who was driving the jet ski that struck Kyle, who was riding an innertube alongside a 15-year-old girl. The NY Daily News reports:

Family friend Jeffrey S. Hubbard of Atlanta is under investigation for the Friday afternoon collision with the 11-year-old boy who was riding in an inner tube on Georgia’s Lake Lanier, an official told the Daily News.
“Basically, a pontoon was pulling two juveniles on an inner tube, and the watercraft ran over the top of them,” Sgt. Mike Burgamy with the Georgia Department of Natural Resources told The News.
He said two of his rangers witnessed what appeared to be a tragic accident.
Alcohol was not a factor, and investigators do not believe it was a mechanical malfunction, he said.
Both young victims – the other being an unidentified 15-year-old girl – were wearing life jackets, he said.

We’re still praying & pulling for Kyle to recover.
