Tameka Foster Causes Scene at Usher Video Shoot
Ah, Tameka Foster.
One of the celebrity gossip world's most hated can always be counted on to stoke the passions of the haters just when things start to cool down.
Foster was "domineering" and displayed her trademark "Tameka wrath" during a video shoot for Usher's song, "Love in the Club," the New York Post says.
Tameka was visibly upset when she found out stunning singer / songwriter Keri Hilson was personally picked by Usher to play his love interest in the video.
"It was supposed to be a sexy video shoot," a Post spy said.
"Tameka was there the entire time guarding like a watchdog. It was ridiculous. She knows Keri and knows she's no video ho or Karrine Steffans."
Nicknamed "Superhead," Karrine Steffans wrote the book, "Video Vixen," about her alleged flings with Usher, Bobby Brown and other artists.
"Tameka Foster is very insecure," the source said. "Even in rehearsals she was weird and not happy that Keri is so gorgeous. Tameka threw a lot of attitude. The day of the shoot, Tameka dressed Keri very badly - like an extra. Tameka wouldn't let Keri have her hairdresser there - she had to use the hairdresser who was doing the extras."
Tameka Foster also has taken a serious dislike to Usher's longtime choreographer, Jamaica, and has apparently gone so far as to banish Jamaica from the set.
Then, when Usher and Tameka Foster were spotted at the Beverly Hills Hotel last week, "They barely said one word to each other."
The two have a choppy past to say the least. After they got engaged, Usher fired his mom, Jonetta Patton, as his manager and also axed his publicists. "Tameka was the one and only one to call the shots," spies said.
They were supposed to wed last summer at L.A. Reid's Hamptons estate - but the wedding was called off at the last minute. They wed a week later in Atlanta, and Foster gave birth to their son, Usher Raymond V, in November.
Usher's album, which may be called Regret, was supposed to come out last year but was delayed due to his wedding and baby. It is expected by June.
Usher's manager, Benny Medina, said via e-mail:
"Keri could not have been happier with Tameka's choices in styling, hair and makeup ... Jamaica was flown out and arrived a day late to do Keri's choreography, and was on-set at all times. The shoot itself went brilliantly."

I have followed this whole thing with Usher and Tameka, and I must say that if it is true what they are saying about her, she really needs to get a grip!!! He is a famous celebrity, he is going to be around other, more attractive women. She cant seem to handle that type of thing so she married the WRONG man!!!! This woman is going to ruin his career in the long run, and he needs to wake up and realize that she is making him look weak and spineless, something that is going to destroy his reputation with his fans!!! I really hope the best for Usher, but if this doesnt work out, shes gonna get PAID!!!! And make him look even worse in the end, I hope he can wake up and be a MAN!!!!!

Usher should get rid of her and he should have listened to his mom because in the end he's going to really regret marrying that miserable chick.

Why are so many women hating on Usher's Lady? He has who he wants. People need to stop hatin. She has added so much to Usher's style and I like it. Some people go to school for hair, makeup and designing and just dont have that natural flair. Congrats on the wedding, the baby, and damn the album is awesome!

Usher my man you need to get rid of that crazy bitch. Why would you marry that old beat up hag. Man you should have stayed with Chilli!!! It's not your fans that are saying things about your woman, it's your friends and family that's been dropping the dime on your wife so don't blame your fans and accuse them of hating on the two of you! Check your backyard!

I don't care if she did act a fool. All of this hating on usher's wife is ridiculous. He is happy, she makes him happy and its none of our business who he is married to. I am truly happy for them!

Get a life! Why don't you haters stop hating? live your life. Get a job, education yourself about life.
It's not about making you happy, Its about their happness. Are you happy? I doubt it.

I believe that Usher is a grown man, and is able to make decisions for himself. He is trying to do the right thing by Tameka and his son. All that matters is what he, Tameka, and God thinks, and if it is meant to be then it will turn out alright. Tameka and Usher you two try to hang in there if you want this to work. Marriage is work and commitment. Look at some of your fellow piers who have been married for many years through the storms and are still together. Talk to som of them. May God be with you through your trying times. Hey Usher! I am still a Huge fan of yours through it all. I am still here....
