After a less than spectacular return to the music scene, I believe due to the debacle that has become his personal life, Usher has rehired his mom as manager. But can she salvage his career?”Usher has dissolved his management arrangement with Benny Medina and has re-engaged Jonnetta Patton as his manager,” the mother and son said in a statement Wednesday.According to a source, “He wanted her to come back on board and she decided to. He had really poor management and wanted her back.” The source cited lackluster album sales as one of the reasons Usher decided to reconsider his management. [SOURCE]Benny Medina can’t keep a client these days, can he? I wonder why, hmmm… He seems so plastic. Usher’s publicist, Patti Webster, also resigned on Aug. 1.All I can do is shake my head because Ray Charles could have seen all this coming!

It was 3:30am Saturday when gunshots were heard in DeKalb County nightclub in Atlanta over rowdy guests being allegedly “double-charged” by security.The location was also peppered with celebrities led by Nelly, Usher and Sean “Diddy” Combs. Rapper and producer Dupri and artists Sean “Diddy” Combs, Nelly and Usher were performing on stage at the time at Club Dream. Unfortunately the party ended in that sour note as one of the security guards even got shot!Apparently some patrons became angry when they learned they had to pay twice to get into the VIP area.There are just some people who want special attention - they want to cut the line, grab the spotlight - and they aren’t even celebrities! To think Usher and Nelly didn’t even cause such a ruckus! Shame tsk tsk…
