ACLU Questions FAMU's Ban On Student Groups
Stardust: Homes, Not Tents, For Occupy Bernal
Last week reports were circulating stating that R&B superstar Usher had called authorities back in September to report that his car had been keyed, and that he implicated his estranged wife, Tameka Foster. Well apparently TMZ got their hands on the 911 tape which reveals the 'Confessions' singer explaining in detail what he believes took place.
"I want to report a situation where my car has been keyed," Usher said. "...It happened last night apparently. I called [last night] and filed a complaint because of a potential domestic violence [situation] between me and my ex-wife. She had come to my house. They sent the police here last night; we filed a complaint."
In response to the tape's release a rep for Foster told MTV News the story is "totally preposterous" and "did not happen."
Hear the 911 call here.

If his ex did that, she was wrong but he didn't need to call 911 for that. It was not an emergency. In fact it was the next day. The police department has phone numbers for non emergencies. He needs to be fined.

He had to treat it as an emergency, BECAUSE the police had responded the night before. He needed to let them come out again and do a 'follow-up' to the preceding incident as quickly as possible so that it can go on record.
We know she did this, we know she is capable. She had the audacity to go to his mother's house and pick a fight with "chilli", so we know she is capable.
Once he realized that she was not the woman he thought she was...she lost it, plain and simple. She knew she was going to lose him, and she did some juvenile things.
Usher should have listened to his mother to begin with.... she saw right through this woman, and refuse to attend the wedding, what mother does not attend her own child's wedding? That SHOULD have been the perverbial straw, that made him stop and take a serious look into the relationship BEFORE he married her. Now she has, what 5 kids and 3 baby daddy's? Hell, she's trying to compete with Kim Porter! You will see her again, trying to "dig" her way into someone else's pockets.

You would think he would have video cameras and some type of security around his residence. Having this situation aired out in public is not a good thing.

Did anybody understand what Usher said on the Audio when he replied what his home number was? It was somewhat hard to understand with the distractions of people laughing and talking loud in the background? I didn't understand why he called the next day if there were officers at his house the night before of the incident? I could see if the ex had came back and threatened or did some other crazy ish? I don't understand why this was publicly aired either? Well, as you can see Tameka's Rep said it never happen? Usher should have some type of video security cameras all over his crib to show proof? This girl is CrAzY and OBSESSED! No wonder Usher, left her azz!

Who cares about this guy or her? This is what happens when you chase a guy just for his money. And who might not be a stable person anyway. What happens to them both, they get what they deserve. Bye, end of story!!!

Usher is not a saint, but who is. I hope he can get involved with a better class/style black queen next time. But fo real protect yourself and your dough.
