What Do Usher Sr And Tameka Have In Common?

They both got arrested for shoplifting in 2005! According to the National Enquirer, Usher's father got arrested in Chattanooga in 2005. And I heard, not from the Enquirer, that Tameka got arrested at Phipps Plaza in Atlanta in 2005. Yeah, 2005, waaaay after that 1991 arrest everyone knows about.

Well here's a little gasoline to add fuel to that fire. Usher senior left Usher's mom shortly after Ursh was born because he didn't believe the baby was his.

When Eddie Said He And Tracy Were Not Engaged....

Maybe Eddie felt sorry for Tracy because nobody went to see the movie she produced, "Who's Your Caddy?" that brought in a underwhelming $2.9 million dollars last weekend.

Mike Vick Pleads Not Guilty

Michael Vick pleaded not guilty to all charges against him in a Richmond Virginia court yesterday where prosecutors said more charges against him are likely and told Vick and his co-defendants, "We've already charged you with serious crimes. You might want to consider a guilty plea. We are going to file more charges next month. That gives you a few weeks to think about the guilty plea. If you come and talk to us about pleading guilty and testifying for us, there will be no more charges against you. If you do not, the charges and the potential punishment will grow quickly. "
Call me crazy but that sounds like the kind of shit they say to scare you when they know their case won't hold up in court.

Take Notes Kelly Rowland

This is what you're supposed to do when you fall down on stage. Get your butt right back up and act like nothing happened!
