USHER: I WON'T PIMP OUT MY SON FOR MONEY


 







May 02, 2008. MediaTakeOut.com has learned that Essence mag will have the first photos of Usher's new son. And they didn't even have to pay a penny for them. Here's what the NY Post is reporting:
FINALLY, there's one celebrity who refuses to cash in on parenthood by selling baby pictures to a magazine. "In no way would I ever pimp out my child for money," Usher told Page Six.

The pop singer - upset by rumors he was trying to sell photos of his infant son, Usher Raymond V, and eager to defend his wife, Tameka, and his upcoming album, "Here I Stand" - wants to set the record straight.

"I am livid that people talk about my child," Usher told us. In fact, he has posed - for free - with his son for an "incredible" Father's Day cover for Essence magazine.

Hmmmmm ... So does that mean that Essence turned down Tameka's offer to sell the pics from $2,000,000???

    My guess is he wasn't offered anything anyway. And since his child is almost a toddler now, he may as well just do it. I'm sure Tameka is pissed! She just knew she was going to get paid for baby #4. Pimping your baby out would be if your trying to sell the pictures. If they offer, it's called business. Usher doesn't have morals he's just got a bruised ego.
     

    kimkelmor
    @ Jamiejo86:

    I'm with you. I don't think Usher wants anybody to see that baby, and I think it's either because (a) it ain't his and looks nothing like him or (b) it is his and looks just like a cross between him and Tameka, which has got to be horrendous.
      ---------------
    Assume nothing; question everything.

    jepr
    That baby's already been pimped out...he's Tameka's meal ticket for the restof her life.

    Baby #4 = cha...ching

    WHATEVER. HE WANT SAYING NOTHING WHEN TAMEKA WAS TRYING GET MILLIONS FOR THE PICS AND THEM MAGS WERENT GIVEN UP NOTHING. NOW ALL OF A SUDDEN HE DONT WANT TO PIMP HIS SON OUT I DONT GET HOW HE WOULD BE PIMPING HIM OUT WHEN NOBODY WANTS TO PAY FOR THE PICS!

    I don't think Usher would be ashamed to show his son off to the public. Every parent is proud of their child, no matter what their child looks like. I can't picture Usher and Tameka's son being an ugly child...let's take into consideration Tameka other sons whom are very handsome boys. Anyway, I can't wait to get my June issue of Essence in the mail. I can't wait to see the little sweetie pie.

    Damn is his wife that ugly. I haven't seen any pics. Maybe that's why his momma got mad about him marrying that girl. well, as long he takes care of it and raise him like a good father should then so be it. Hell, if Essence offered money like that for pics of my children...i would take the offer and place it in a trust account for college or until the child is 21. technically, the baby earned it because it was offered to him and he can't help who his parents are.

    Usher...i say take the money and run. if anything Usher should have kept his ass at the club making love and let Tameka handle hers. Usher sometimes needs to mind his business.

    Well, it's too late to get the real money anyway because Halle Berry's baby came along. You have to show off a baby before 2 months because people will forget about your baby. I forgot about User's baby when Halle's baby came along. I am waiting to see Beyonce and Jay-Z's baby.lol

    I must admit I am more excited to see his baby than Halle Berry's. I grew up listening to Usher and always thought he was one of the most respectable entertainers of my generation and still do. Congratulations on your marriage to a beautiful BLACK no....DARK SKINNED BLACK woman and your new family. All this hate will KEEP making this relationship stronger...so welcome it.

    i can respect his decision.
    i don't think it's 'pimpin' your kid. kids don't pick their parents. it's not fair they cannot enjoy normal childhoods b/c safety is always an ISSUE b/c of their parents fame. at least there is compensation ($ for pics) that can grow in a trust.

    @realwoman- Ummmmm, WTF are you talking about? First of all, if no one wants to see Usher's baby, it wouldn't be b/c the child is black; it would be b/c it might look like his mother. And speaking of his mother, she IS ugly. I'm tired of people saying "BEAUTIFUL BLACK WOMAN" just b/c they are black. If the lady is ugly, she's ugly. I wouldn't care if she was orange, she would still be ugly.

    GET OFF IT[SPAM]!

    @ ponchoswife - she isn't ugly per se, but her attitude/actions are. you know sometimes it can interfere with the physical.
     

    sexychoclit
    I know thats right Usher! I think he is so sexy and the fact that he sticks up for his family in spite of what jealous people say makes his sex appeal even stronger...a true black man (not too many of those left...thank God I found me one at an early age)

    Okay, much respect for Usher for not selling the pictures....I respect his values and I agree with him...That is using your baby for profit, which is not a cool thing. (Although I agree, Brad and Angelina using the money for charity and good causes was also cool). Also its good that he held it down for his wife, given the rumors.

Even the one with the ashy feet! Yall really really really need to stop! Do I need to do my list again yall? lmao....

    I look above and see a .....bugged eyed mountain frog, a rosy lipped gnu, a camel with rings around the neck, an anorexic nerd with an untidy house, someone with a naaaaastay overbite and too much eye makeup...please stop the madness because that 'booga bear ugly too dark manly blah blah' female LOOKS BETTER THAN YOU!
      ---------------
    Remind ‘em of who they are !!!

    esotericdredz
    @ mzarrogance, I agree with you....Its Tameka's character (ex-con/criminal past and attitude) that turns people off more than her actual physical appearance. I think people take shots at her appearance because they dont like her as a person, or at least how she presents herself.

    Not liking bullshit doesn‘t = hating

    JAYBABY ummmm who are you to speak for all the lost Blacks that have termed this woman ugly for her BLACK FEATURES unless you are the number one culprit? Sounds like someone is feeling guilty to me. For a while now I have read too many posters refer to Tameka as too dark, Black and ugly, nappy headed etc. and you want to act like all of that has nothing to do with why SOME people are assuming the baby is ugly and saying they don't want to see him? YOU stay in denial about the self hate of some (maybe you are included??) on here but I will tell it like I see it and if you don't like too fvcking bad.
      ---------------

    realwoman
    Yall need to stop making excuses for people hatred of certain Blacks based on their looks. If they have called her BLACK AND UGLY in the past how does that translate into I don't like the fact that Usher's mom and her don't get along? There is no correlation and denying these people exist is just making the self hatred harder to detect when it is sooo obvious! IF YOU ARE NOT THE CULPRIT WHY ARE YOU DEFENDING THOSE WHO DO IT?

    Please! Usher got ya'll head twisted. He's only says that because it was making him look bad that people were saying that he wanted to pimp his child for money. He probably would have went and got paid for pics in mag just like everybody else.

    If Usher doesn't want to hear what people have to say, maybe he should just keep his mouth shut and keep his business out of the street.

    Usher better watch what he is saying because the industry could take offense to what he said, implying that they are all pimping their kids for money.

Except for the ones who have donated the money to charity, which we really don't know if they did or not, this is one of the best celebrity news stories I've heard all year. They make enough money, and the publicity just helps their career anyway. So go head Usher!!

    When your parents are stars the kids that come from them are stars too. Some celebs try to keep their kids out of the public eye because they want the kids to have a normal childhood. Now if parent and child are just spotted in public and someone takes a pic is one story, but allowing major media, (who gets to the money also) to just come and take FREE pics to publicize the INNOCENT kids which automatically exposes the kids is crazy. They gonna end up like Micheal Jackson or Paris Hilton and nem.

    WTF? Since when does being lighter skinned mean you need less moisture on your skin or somehow have better skin that doesn't need as much lotion? Maybe YOU just don't notice ash on light people but I work around whites and I have seen tooooo many of them with crusty scaly feet that needs a pumice stone and some shea butter...sorry can't identify with this notion that darker people need more lotion.

    No sweetie...your lil attempt at reverse psychology won't work here. Pointing out someone else's obvious problem with darker skin in NO WAY MEANS I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH DARKER SKIN! I love my black people no matter what complexion they are....

    Voodoolady c'mon sis. I am not trying to make you feel like an uncle tom or anything and was not singling you out in particular but you know damn well there are people here who do think that anything BLACK is bad. Did you even read the quotes I put up. There are people straight up calling other Blacks MONKEYS, BABOONS, CHIMPS etc. Are you really going to try and defend that as some sort of normal behavior coming from people who RESEMBLE these same people????

    Chili, Ananda, Tatiana are all beautiful women but you know damn well that each one of them has that 'hair' that Blacks have been sweating them over FOREVER along with their distinct East Asian (yea all of them have East Indian in their bloodline) facial features. These are feelings that are deepley imbedded in the Black conscious that some people don't even realize exist within themselves.

    Don't wanna sound like a broken record but this all reminds me too much of that experiment they did with the black children and the black&white dolls. MOST of those very Black children picked the white dolls as the more favorable. Mind you nothing about the dolls was different except for the color...

    Voodoo how can Blacks get over it if the hurdle hasn't even been reached yet? That is the same as whites telling Blacks to get over it....it is something in the Black Americans history that needs to be addressed and put to rest but we aren't at that point when people are still using the slavemasters derogatory insults to insult their fellow brother and sister.

    Having different complexions in ones family doesn't automatically make one color/shade/feature blind either.

    I'm beginning to think some of the stars are losers as well. They do not think about their children and their welfare first. Why live in the Paparrazi infested cities? They care about themselves and careers first. They can afford to travel via plane more than we can.

    Ugly people who tear down peolple who don't care about you one way or another. And ya'll dummies still gonna pay for whatever and Tameka gonna spend ya'll money.

    I'd rather be ugly and paid than pretty and a bunch of pathetic broke losers who wish I had her money or status.

    White man got ya'll stuck on color instead of real status.

    Who cares who light or dark. I got my own house w/ driveway, husband two kids, 2 bank accounts, a masters and I know I am the [EXPLETIVE] regardless of what shade I am. That tells more about me not my skin tone. Bunch of losers!!!!!

    step ya'll game up and ya'll can care and judge by more than just skin tone. Only low lifes have to make themselves feel better about skin tone. All in all ya'll just [EXPLETIVE] to the rest of the world so wake up. Stand up for Black Pride overall. When they can divide they can conquer.
    I guess the people who say the child must be ugly and thats is why he is not showing the baby nust be ugky themselves or have some ugly children and know how it feels.

    United we stand divided we fall.
    Grow up losers and get a life!!!!!

    its amazing how in your little mind, chili & anandas color and features are attributed to indian ancestry...they were more acceptable because of this? how do you KNOW that tameka doesnt have it??? WTF are you talking about...she is just UGLY, end of discussion...maybe you favor her or look like her and thats why u are so hostile and concerned about saving the black race one blogger at a time...it is so obvious that somewhere, someplace in your lifetime that someone referred to you as black and ugly...and it still hurts today...its ok...theres always therapy...until then, keep typing away in futility cause fact remains, IN MY OPINION, she is ugly....

    I logged in here just for you. Regardless of the DOO DOO LADY and Jay whoever, I wanna let you know that I agree with you 100%. When you are light-skinned you DO GET TREATED DIFFERENTLY!!! Denial is not the way to go. Just admit it b/c it happens everywhere.
    Instead of getting sooo defensive, certain people just need to open their minds up and accept the FREE WISDOM & knowledge that is being kicked down to them.

    To their defense, though, you shouldn't have thrown insults out if you really wanted to get through to them...
    JayBABY you are a very pretty gurl, HOWEVER, I hope you do see that she has a point. keep an open mind about these situations b/c it IS REAL :)
    Have a blessed day people

    Okay Sweetie, once again you have danced ALL around the point. Instead of gettin all vulgar, if you expressed yourself in an educated manner, you would be heard by a lot more people. However, that's not my problem. All I'm tryin to say is this: it is more common for lighter shaded people to get "special" treatment over darker shades than poorer treatment. I'm not saying that your struggle for equality is ALOT easier, but it is a little. W.E.B Dubois used his fairer skin to his advantage. He got into an actual UNIVERSITY when we as a people were still fighting for the right to vote. That was a powerful thing. He accepted the way things were even back then and you won't even accept it NOW.
    On a personal note, my x boyfriend's mother who is Creole, didn't wanna meet me at first b/c she knew I wasn't light-skinned. Unfortunately, there are just ignorant people out there.

    I understand how you feel about Tamika. She is not the most glamorous woman in Hollywood, but I would never say she was ugly. I would say the same thing about Tiny. I wouldn't say she is less attractive than Tomika b/c she is light-skinned either. That is your opinion and you're entitled to it.
    I just wanted you to look at things in different ways instead of instantly taking offense to the issue.

    Im Creole, TOO...ty very much and well educated...and here's a little lesson for u, creole does not mean light skin neccesarily...I wouldnt use Dubois as an example being as though that sh*t was hundreds of years ago... and MY POINT EXACTLY...that "passe blanc" sh*t is soooo 1950...still perpetuating these views and its ULLSH*T....and i did not take offense to the issue but for anyone to assume that just because we feel she isnt attractive simply because shes darker is inane...and btw, George Washington Carver attended college FIRST and he was a DARKER brother so u said that to say what???

    I agree with a lot of the comments from realwoman, jay AND VooDoo. It's a shame but if Usher's wife was light-skinned w/long hair none of us would have had anything to say. If ush was with a fresh brown-skinnd chick we may not be tripping...or would we? With Tameka i think it goes a little deeper. Tameka's whole demo was jacked...her age & the kids, the HUSBAND & crime background...all that made her unattractive. We (blacks) are tricky with our skin color thought process and Tamekea just couldn't win. she's older, dark and thick w/kids. If she was light and 40 y-o it would have been ok? What if usher married tracy edmonds? It would have been ok. If he was dating a dark YOUNG modle chick, it would have been ok. Tameka just has too much that we don't like. As far as the baby photos...I do believe that racism is playing a part in WHY usher isn't pimpin' the kid. I do not believe he was offered the big bucks, and I bet halle wasn't either. It's because they are BLACK!!! Who really cared about Christina Agularra's baby? She isn't THAT hot, but she still got top dollar because she is non-black. Usher is a celeb, but he is a man, he didn't actually birth the baby, so maybe that was a factor in the lack of interest from the white media. Most of the other kids had celeb moms. The real test will be if beyonce and Joe camel have a baby (Lord...have mercy on that child's lips & nose). The are both huge celebs and I'm can't wait to see how the white media reacts. Oh...and Tiny (T.I.'s girl) is what my people call "Light skin gone to waste" she is an ugg-mo and always has been.

    Yeah we can't wait to see the white baby Halle had but noone wants to see the little chocolate baby because it will remind you all too much of yourselves which many of you HATE.

    I must admit I am more excited to see his baby than Halle Berry's. I grew up listening to Usher and always thought he was one of the most respectable entertainers of my generation and still do. Congratulations on your marriage to a beautiful BLACK no....DARK SKINNED BLACK woman and your new family. All this hate will KEEP making this relationship stronger...so welcome it.

    He may not intend to pimp his baby for cash but Tameka a** sure did. They decided to do a shoot for free AFTER she was turned down by one magazine. She tried to justify this outrageous price by comparing her baby to J Lo's and Halle Berry's newborns, who were paid 6 and 10 million dollars.
    C'm on now Tamaka, you're no J Lo OR Halle!! She's new money and we can care less about her!
