Dropping the latest celebrity news

The drama continues. Bossip spoke with an industry insider who shed yet another side of this Usher/Tameka divorce melee:
Usher is currenty living in LA working on his album, which comes out in October. He’s normally not one to take many photos, however recently he’s been photographed quite often. He’s doing the same thing that Jay Z and Beyonce are doing, which is hiring photographers to take pictures, that they have pre-approved. He’s trying to build positive press in his favor at the expense of his wife’s image. From the advice given by his mother (who’s hired a completly new publicity team), he’s trying to get the public to Tameka her under the bus. At this point Tameka doesn’t want to get divorced and everyone in her camp is thinking that he’s just doing this as a publicity stunt to sell more records. – like another Confession’s record. Some wonder if this marriage was really a cover-up for an alternative lifestyle. Once the divorce papers are signed, the floodgates will open.

Usher has filed for divorce from wife Tameka Foster Raymond.
The R & B star filed the petition Friday in Superior Court in Atlanta, court records show. The couple, who got married in August 2007, have two sons together, Usher Raymond V, 18 months, and Naviyd, 6 months.
Usher, 30, and his wife of nearly two years, 38, have been leading separate lives for months, sources tell PEOPLE. The singer has been away from home often recording his next record in Las Vegas, one source says. “He’s done his best to keep Tameka away,” says the source.
Another source told PEOPLE that Tameka has been focusing on keeping her family happy.
The night before Usher filed for divorce, his wife was spotted at a screening of Eddie Murphy’s new movie, Imagine That in Atlanta with the couple’s eldest son, and two of her sons from her first husband. Tameka, who was wearing a gray shirt, tight jeans and high heels, “was happy and smiling,” says an onlooker.
The night his divorce papers were filed, Usher spent a low-key night at the Los Angeles club MyHouse. He arrived late and came in through the back then was seated at a table where he spent time with a few friends chatting and drinking. The singer, who was smiling and talkative, seemed to be in a good, but mellow mood.
Divorce is rough . . . but if this mess gets him to start making Confession-quality music, I won’t be mad.
