UPDATE: JUICY DETAILS WHY USHER DODGED A BULLET..MAN-EKA ROARS (SPEAKS)...

*People magazine is quoting sources who say that Usher’s mom and former manager, Jonetta Patton, was one of several forces leading to the cancellation of his planned trip down the aisle with fiancee Tameka Foster. People reports: "Usher's mother [whom he fired as his manager in May] is against the wedding. That is one of the main obstacles," according to the source, who also said of the bride, 37, and groom, 28: "They only decided two weeks ago to have a wedding. They wanted to have it take place before the baby bump started showing." The source also said the couple “had a lot of differences about the details. For example, the bride wanted barbecue, [and] he wanted to have [renowned chef] Jean Georges cook." __________________________________________________________________________________ Because of the constant waffling, the wedding "was on again off again for the past few days. [Foster] was calling it off because she wasn't getting the things that she wanted. The mother was calling it off. ... Usher was calling it off," the source told People. As previously reported, Usher cancelled the wedding hours before the ceremony was to begin at the Southampton, N.Y. estate of record exec L.A. Reid. Some 70 to 100 guests – including celeb couples BeyoncĂ© and Jay Z, Ashanti and Nelly, and Janet Jackson and Jermaine Dupri – were left hanging by the sudden announcement, according to the New York Post. The newspaper also said Usher’s godfather, actor Ben Vereen, had been snatched off the guest list because of his view of Foster. Ursh’s mom, who is rumored to despise Foster, didn’t receive an invitation at all, the Post reported. However, the New York Daily News said Usher's mother was invited at the last minute, though an unnamed source told the paper she did not want to go. As for the wedding logistics, People quoted an insider who said: "The tents were up. And they paid all of the people, the vendors, so that wasn't an issue. ... Hotel rooms were an issue. Janet [Jackson] was coming, but she had eight security people. Ashanti and Nelly were coming." While the source said the couple’s wedding cancellation may not be permanent, Usher’s rep would not comment in her statement Saturday if the two were still engaged or even remained a couple. Tameka’s half-sister, Valencia Foster – who recently told the National Enquirer of the former stylist’s troubled past – says she was asked by Usher to tell all of Tameka’s business during a recent “getting-to-know-the-in-laws” dinner in Tameka’s Oakland hometown. “Before I could say a word, Tameka kicked me so hard under the table she almost put a hole in my leg," Valencia told the tabloid." Then she pulled me aside and whispered: 'Don't tell him anything.'" ************************************************************************************ MAN-EKA SPEAKS: No one knows why we canceled the wedding, but I can tell you that all of the reasons that everyone is speculating and writing about are completely untrue.” She declined to reveal more about why the nuptials were called off. [SOURCE] She didn’t really clear anything up, so back to speculation! ********************************************************************************* HOUSE OF GLITZ: MAN-EKA WAS IN THE HOSPITAL YESTERDAY IN ATL FOR SO CALLED COMPLICATIONS WITH THE BABY (RUNNING GAME) USHER VISITED HER AND MAN-EKA AND THE BABY ARE O.K......FACE IT HE DODGED A BULLET HE FOUND OUT SHE IS A CON AND SHE TRYING TO COME UP ON HIS $$$$, THE GIG IS UP NOW SHE IS REDUCED TO A SINGLE BABY MAMA OF 4 ...!!!
