One of my formers editors who shot them as a couple, said of the two Tameka was the nicest person, Usher was actually quite shy, and ..."dull"..so Tameka will do just fine!!

I'm sorrier to hear about this than I have any right to be. I don't know them - this is not my business - they may be utterly miserable together!

But I was impressed that they were giving it a go when she got pregnant, it made me think highly of both them. I'm sad that it's not going to work out.

Well, there's a good way to do divorce-with-children, too.... (Maybe Demi Moore and Bruce Willis will give them a call?)

@ellaesther: (Yes, I really am that lame and always want to be able to think the best of everyone. The downside to being a Pollyanna is that when people surprise you, it's more often than not for the worse....)

Sometimes I don't notice if my boy has run out to pick up a pack of beer. Usually I notice if he's in another country.

@jemandtheholograms: Uh huh. And I'd definitely notice if he came back from his trip to the beach with a tummy tuck.

@Bob Wiley: She's too good for him. Didn't he cheat on her? And I think she's dating a CNN anchor now.

@JessaFields: Eww, didn't know that! She's better off without him then! Though I must confess, I thought they were really cute together at the time. Appearances can be deceiving I guess.

@JessaFields: I was upset for a second, thinking it would be my love, my muse, Anderson Cooper. But then I realized that neither one of us would ever have him.

@battleaxonista...is a humorless bitch: I wasn't necessarily a hater, but I mean...you knew that wasn't going to work. That's why you don't marry groupies.

@MizJenkins: Oh, I know people who do NOT like her at all from personal experience. But the reason most people hated her basically boiled down to, 'she's too old and doesn't look like a video girl, so step the fuck off gramma'. It's stupid. You can hate on an ugly personality without hating on someone's looks.

@SpicyTamale is a GA peach: Yes, she's a celebrity stylist...which is a convenient job for a groupie.

@battleaxonista...is a humorless bitch: She don't look no worse than Usher - who looks like a Teddy Graham - but she is/i> too damn old for this nonsense.

@Scout 3.0: Jesus, how true is that. After my ex-fiance and I split up, she said she knew he wasn't the one for me because he reminded her of my father.

Chilling words.

@Scout 3.0: my mother wanted me to marry both of my last boyfriends. i stayed with them long enough to for them to dump me.

oh, and she wanted me to end up with this friend from college who totally digged me but fell in love with every woman he saw....not to get judgey mcjudgerson, but y'know when you know too much about a guy's dating history and sexual past? yeah, that guy. that guy is now married with a gorgeous son. we're still pals, too.

my mom just wants me to get married...i wouldn't mind getting married either, but only to the right guy and not another mr. wrong.
