Usher Hoax...

Today I on VH1 I heard that the "other woman" being preggy for Usher was a publicity stunt to sell more albums. Is that true? If it is I will look at him in a whole new light. (I brought Confessions on bootleg anyway.)

ok...umm...if takes a man to admit to cheating on his girlfriend and having an illegitimate baby with a woman he barely knows to get peeps to buy an album...then our society is more twisted than i presumed. In all honesty, peeps were gonna by the album regardless. He's a good looking guy, who can dance, hold a steady note, and has catchy songs. He coulda been singing about boo boo on stick, but as long as it was on that beat peeps woulda been rockin to it.

Well...I guess you're right, society is twisted. I have known that for the last few years. Every since it became "cool" to do things that were known as being negative in the past, society has had things twisted. Why do you think 50 got all the hype? It's sad how many people were on him tough just because he really got shot. I guess that "verified" him as bein a **** in many people's eyes. The whole image thing is even worst in rap. Rappers do anything to sell records, such as leavin a gun on their seat and gettin pulled over and goin to jail for havin a weapon just to make them seem gangsta. But at the same time, controversy has ALWAYS sold, whether it's in music or movies. Look at Marilyn Manson when he was big. He claimed to be a christian, but he would tear up burnt bibles and throw them into the crowd. People love negative things for whatever ignorant reason.
