Ladies (and Gentlemen), Usher is officially off the market.
The platinum-plated R&B heart-throb (legally known as Usher Raymond) confirmed last night that he will be getting married this year.
"I'm engaged now," the 28-year-old multiple Grammy Award winner revealed, hinting that he could be walking down the aisle with his longtime 38-year-old girlfriend Tameka Foster -- before the end of this year.
MTV reports that "rumors of Usher's pending nuptials have been floating around for a little over a month. Photos of Usher and Foster - with a rock on her finger - have also made the rounds, but on Wednesday night, he confirmed the information publicly for the first time."

Ahhh come on people stop the hate. You all dont know what this man been through with this woman, regardless if she was married at the time of thier friendship or seperated or whatever. Dont be so judgemental of others happiness. If thats what they want to do so be it. It aint none of our concern no way.

No one is ever concerned with a man's age or how many children he has already when he is 35+ or over 40 and marries a 20 something. The same should apply here. If they are happy we really shouldn't be so concerned about the age difference.

usher might need to think about this for a while.I think the relationship is hot right now,but what will happen after they get married and the relationship turns to him growing old being a step-dad and not being able to do the things that I know he is use to doing.I bet his mom is not so pleased with this.

I heard she was pregnant...AND the baby is NOT Ushers! I heard she is having her ex-husbands baby! Go figure! My real question is what type of dirt does she have over him (Usher) to make him go along with all of this nonsense!

She's too old for him and not very pretty. Usher has a history of dating beautiful, older woman, but come on. When did she become his long time girlfriend? What happened? Maybe this is just a bad picture. I thought it was his mother or aunt.

I think that this is bad for usher's relationship with his mom, the two of them have always been close,now that he's marrying Tameca someone his mom was against him dating,also not being able to get along with he will always be in the middle of arguments between his mom and Tameka.Usher should also remember when dating someone with kids their kids fathers are always going to be apart of your life,yes it may seem easy to say Ican handle this,until the reality sets in.GET a prenup and be happy,because your doing something other guys would never do and thats marry a women with kids.Tameka must be the inspiration for your new song,Idont blame her for wanting Usher,USHER is so sexy he make you wanna say oooooo so many days so many hours.
