R&B superstar Usher has announced that he will launch his own line of lingerie later this year.
The “Love in This Club” hitmaker was spotted at the Marlies Dekkers runway show during Paris Fashion Week in France over the weekend. The singer attended the event to find inspiration for his own racy garments.
He says, “I’m launching a lingerie line for men and women.” He insists “comfort and intimacy” will be a mainstay in his new line.
The first samples will debut in his new music video, “Trading Places.” However, Usher isn’t the only R&B superstar getting ready to launch a lingerie line - Janet Jackson will unveil her Pleasure Principle lingerie in November of 2008.

Usher Rages At Media For Taking Aim At His Wife
May 28th, 2008 | Posted in Television, Videos
R&B superstar Usher is raging at the media for taking aim at his wife.
The 29-year old singer wed stylist Tameka Foster last September and the couple welcomed their first son, Usher Raymond V, two months later.
However, the Love in This Club hitmaker has been forced to defend his union on several occasions, admitting the media backlash against his wife has definitely “affected” him.
He says, “Of course a lot of what I read does affect me. There’s been a lot of untrue statements that have come out. One, my wife’s age. Two, her name. She’s not a Foster, she’s a Raymond. I married her.
“Also, the fact that maybe there was some malicious intent on her part with my family or my mother. There’s a lot of transformations that have taken place in my life and unfortunately my wife got a bad beat for it. But I’m very happy.
“She’s not done anything in a negative way other than make me a better man in life. As a father, as a more conscious individual.”
Usher continued his rant on MTV’s Total Request Live on Tuesday, while he was co-hosting the show to promote the release of his highly-anticipated album, “Here I Stand,” which is available in stores now.
He raged, “I love my wife very very much and there has been a little rumor earlier this week about us separating; it ain’t true… As a matter of fact I’m tired of people continuing to talk so much trash about me… I’m a black strong man in America standing up to my people.”

Usher’s Wife Is Jealous Of His New Love Interest
March 26th, 2008 | Posted in Celebrity Gossip, Music News
Usher’s wife Tameka Foster has reportedly been giving R&B singer Keri Hilson a hard time for playing his love interest in his new video, “Love in This Club”. Here’s the scoop:
Our on-set source said Foster was 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,” our spy said. “And 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.” Steffans, nicknamed “Superhead,” wrote the book, “Video Vixen,” about her alleged flings with Usher and several other artists.
“Tameka is very insecure,” our source said. “Even in rehearsals she was weird and clearly not happy that Keri is so gorgeous. Tameka threw a lot of attitude. The day of the shoot, Tameka dressed Keri very badly - she looked like an extra. Tameka wouldn’t let Keri have her hairdresser there - she had to use the hairdresser who was doing the extras.”

December 28th, 2007 | Posted in Celebrity Gossip
R&B superstar Usher insists the birth of his first child, Usher Raymond V, has transformed him into a “super dad”.
He says, “I’m really like super dad. Really. I really cook for the family.
“Now I basically do chicken and broccoli and steamed vegetables, because I’m on this diet. But believe me, I can fry some chicken too…
“I really clean up. I walk the dog, myself. I burp the baby. I change the diapers. I trim the tree. I’m about to get the things for the tree after this because it’s bare. I’m super dad. And it’s only begun.”
If Usher is doing all the work, what is his wife Maneka Foster doing?
