Usher's interview with RWDmag.com is very eye-opening. The R&B singer dishes on his career, his mom, his wife Tameka, and being a dad. Oh, and he addresses that little rumor about his wife being pregnant!
When asked what kind of father he is and if he witnessed the birth of his son, Usher, he said, "Of course! Won’t be there for your child’s birth, what? It wasn’t gory at all – I cut the cord and everything. It was the realest tear I ever cried. It was uncontrollable; when I heard his voice, I just cried (snaps fingers) like that. I don’t know who or what he’s going to be, but he’s going to be something special. He’s magic to me, he breaks me all the way down. I’m the goofiest dad ever – I’m doing backflips in front of him and spinning on my head and he’s laughing at me."
Aww, melts the heart doesn't it?
More snippets from the interview:
RWD: How was your wedding day?
Oh, it was great; very sunny, very beautiful, very positive. We had a great time with great food and great music. Doug E Fresh performed, he rocked the house for us. We had D-Nice on the wheels of steel and Layla Hathaway sang for us when we – well, she – walked down the aisle. It was nice.
Melissa: Is it true there’s another on the way or is it just showbiz rumours?
Well, actually I heard that rumour today that Tameka’s pregnant. She’s not – I wish – but she’s not pregnant. I want a little girl. That first pregnancy was pretty hard, I’m surprised that I even survived! Having a pregnant woman and making an album at the same time? ‘I need ice.’ ‘But baby I’m in the booth.’ But nah, it’s a beautiful experience. If I do have another child, I’d hope it was a baby girl, but I’m fine with my baby boy, I love him. I love him so much.
Jonte: How’s your relationship with your mum? Why did you sack her?
The relationship is great. There have been some rumours that my mother, um, and I separated on a negative. It was more that a lot of things changed, I wanted to handle my business myself. So I asked my mother to become more of a support, like it’s time for you to be Grandma, not just the protector of Usher. There’s been talk about negativity between Tameka and my mum. I found that kinda difficult seeing as my mom did Tameka’s baby shower.
RWD: We had questions from certain readers commenting on Tameka. How do you feel about the criticism you’ve both received?
You know, drama sells. If you think about the concept, in it’s simplest form; you mean to tell me you’re mad at me for being a husband to my wife, a father to my child? That makes no sense. Most people would be noted for drugs or just being horrible in life. And I get highlighted for doing the right thing (laughs). I love my wife, I love my child and they are the centre of my life.
