Tameka Foster’s friends have been assigned damage control duties by Tameka. This weekend she dispatched her loyalistas to hit up all the blogs and the mainstream media this weekend in order to diminish the damage already done to her sterling reputation (HA HA HA, that was a joke!)

Anyway, I had my own “insider” story all set to publish, but People.com beat me to it. So I guess I’ll hold off on mine until the time is right. That’s what I get for not taking a speed typing class in high school.

Tameka’s friend told People that Usher couldn’t part with his bachelor ways, and he had problems remembering he was a dog on a chain and kept forgetting to call home when he was going to be late.

“No one I’ve spoken to is surprised,” a source close to the couple tells PEOPLE. “As bad as this is gonna sound, it was never a matter of ‘I wonder if they’ll divorce,’ but more like ‘I wonder WHEN they’ll divorce.'”

“They peaked before they even got married,” a friend of Tameka tells PEOPLE. “Right after it was over, they started to drift apart. [Usher] just wasn’t ready to settle down, at least not with her.” READ MORE…

Tameka’s attorney, told Peach Buzz: “All I can tell you is that my client loves her husband and she loves her children. She’s trying to keep this as private as possible.”

There are unsubstantiated rumors floating around that Tameka had the goods on Usher, and she promised to spill the tea if he didn’t marry her and set her up for at least the next 18 years. So, the rumor goes that Usher agreed to her terms of 2 years and 2 kids.

This rumor is as ridiculous as it sounds. But I’ve heard it more than once.
