Grammy award winning singer Usher canceled a Pre-Grammy appearance late Saturday to rush to Brazil where his wife Tameka Foster-Raymond suffered “complications from plastic surgery.”
A source close to Usher’s camp told Sandrarose.com last night that Tameka suffered “an emergency related to the plastic surgery,” but she is “fine now.”
According to published reports, neurosurgeon Dr. Gabriel Hunt of LA’s Cedars-Sinai Medical Center was flown to Brazil to consult on the case.
The most likely reason that a neurosurgeon would be consulted is if the patient fails to wake up from the anesthesia. This type of emergency can occur when the patient receives too much anesthesia and not enough oxygen during the procedure.
Artists and adult entertainers routinely travel to Brazil to have plastic surgery performed by skilled surgeons at upscale clinic/resorts which offer both privacy and a luxurious setting for the patient to recuperate.
Brazilian doctors are also favored for the cheaper rates they charge.
Usher and Tameka have two children together. Naviyd Ely Raymond, was born in December 2008, and the couple’s first child, Usher Raymond V, was born in November 2007.
i don’t care for tameka , but i’m glad she’s ok.
hey sandra when are you gonna post grammy pics? your girl tiny looked really nice. i love her dress.
So the question is, what was the procedure Tameka had done?
That’s all anyone really cares to know anyway.
Oooooooo Licia no you didn’t! Um so I was watching award show red carpet on E with my mom and the camera panned to Ti and his sitchoation and my mother’s first reaction was WTF…lol. Sorry Li boo Tina looked a hot mess as usual but her hair did look nice for once which I guess is a start.
get well meka don’t need usher running loose again LOL!!!
why would she go the cheap route?? when i book my appointment it wont be wit her doctor!! FYI MIA looked a hot mess at the grammys in the polka dots! Ye’ 80’s patch head look was “dreadful” and im tired of hearin about chris n ri ri already-they just wanted to take alllll the attention for themselves.
I agree why would she have to go the cheap rte. After what happened to Donda West one would think that people would take PS a little more serious. When it come to your life money should be no object.
A woman of a certain age suce as Tameeka is should be more cautious than most. But as Starkitten made note of… I also was looking to see what she actually got done.
(I’m headed to the corner now)
Morning all!
I am also wondering what procedure Meka had done? Maybe it was lypo or a tummy tuck. Chick does HAVE a LOT of kids. Anywho, I am glad to hear she is still alive and ticking.
Brazil isn’t necessarily “cheap” for plastic surgery, it might be less expensive, but some places like Brazil and Spain are known for their nip/tuck resorts, and have way more experience with plastic surgery experience that the expensive doctors Stateside.
Personally I don’t think this is Tameka’s first procedure…
Poor guy… Every since he married her, it’s been one thing or another. I’m sure that is not what he signed up for.
It seems silly for her to be getting plastic surgery now. She didn’t care about how she looked when he married her. Now I’m thinking all that crap about I’m a mother with three kids and he loves me blah blah crap wasn’t real.
I hope it was worth it!
Cheaper is never better when it comes to your health…glad she’s ok though.
Morning
I plan on having lypo or tummy tuck after I have kids. I pray nothing goes wrong.
@jazi-you are so right about that!!!

Daisy, don’t do it!!! Great service on Sunday! I loved when little Barack came out waving.
@Sandra I went to bed side baptist Sun. I was at the Ray Tues, Thurs and Sat last week.
I am a size 6/8 but I have never had a flat tummy so I know after kids it wont be any better so I want it all sucked out..lol
DUMB BITCH got what she deserved how vain!!!!! having a surgery she didnt need she risked making her kids lose thier monther for her own selfish desires and pleasure I hvae no sympathy for her or dodnda west you know how oeasy it tis to diet and exercise, and to love yourself for who you are….. dumb bitch
I don’t care how often people travel overseas for cosmetic surgery. That’s just plain old stupid. They’d have better chances here in the US. Haven’t they heard the horror stories of plastic surgery???????????
Actually Brazil is the plastic surgery capital of the world. It’s a multimillion or billion dollar industry there so I highly doubt that their Doctors are less advanced than the US Doctors.
I have to agree with KaraZ…this isn’t Tameka’s first procedure.
I didn’t know Brazil was so popular for cosmetic surgery with resorts and all.
A large percentage of the woman in Brazil get plastic surgery. This is in part the reason why they are known as the hottest woman on the planet…according to some, lol.
Whatever, her body hasn’t even recovered from having two kids back to back. Her decision was unwise and clearly jeapordized her health. Besides, I think she is a gorgeous chocolate woman as is. No artificial ingredients needed
I hope it’s true that she is ok. I pray she doesn’t come back over here looking like Lil Kim or Vivica.
I just feel that plastic surgery is not for minorities…. I think that we age beautifully, have beautiful curves etc
Invest in a personal trainer and a chef or something and be happy. All black girls I know who have had surguries are so messed up and never recover.. stuff leaking and bleeding…smh

Im 25 and little tummy pouches run in my family, all the girls have it… dont do it honey… ur beautiful the way u are
ALSO: now we all now Tameka had the surgery… its pointless now. We’re gonna give her the side eye instead of the “what did you do girl u lok great!”
I for one do not think plastic surgery is necessary. A good diet and exercise will get rid of a tummy on anyone. A lot of times it is the food you eat that causes a tummy. I hope Tameka is ok.
I think she got her vagina tucked…it’s trendy, right now, and especially considering all them dang babies she’s got, Usher’s probably got to strap on a floatie before he hits.
@Shunda that is NOT true. I watch what I eat and workout 4-5x a week and no boo the baby pouch from not having a baby is in my genes. Both my mother and sister had tummys as well before kids. I was a size 4 with this pocket of fat that didnt go anywhere in college so nope diet and excerise aren’t always the key.
@Daisy
You could be doing the wrong exercises and watching what you eat doesn’t mean you don’t eat foods that cause belly fat in you. However, you have your opinion and I have mine. I am fine with agreeing to disagree and moving on.
LMAO….thats too much for me!!!LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!
I’M GLAD I DON’T HAVE TO DO PLASTIC SURGERY..I’M A REAL OLD JOE..I WORK OUT 4 TIMES A WEEK AND WATCH WHAT I EAT.AND IF I SPLURGE I DO IT IN MODERATION.I HAVE A EXERCISE TAPE THAT WORKS OFF A MEAL!! I’M GOOD..WILL PRAY FOR TAMEKA.SHE’S TRYING TO HANG WITH HER YOUNGER HUSBAND AND THE GROOPIES IT DON’T TAKE THAT. HAVE TAMEKA TO E MAIL ME SANDRA..
Who’s looking after the kids if mommy’s all hemmed up in the hospital in Brazil??? I pray for her full recovery. Maybe it was serious and not for vanity.
I used to want to get lipo or a tummy tuck, but its not worth the risk to me. Even if you do get surgery, you still have to exercise to keep the fat off. So I just choose to exercise and watch what I eat, instead of looking for a quick fix. But baby tummys do not go away over night, it can take years to work off.
kc if i compared this dress to what she had on the last time i saw pics of her she looked really nice iMO. that BERNT ERNGE ( yes i spelled it that way on purpose) dress was horrendous. she hasn’t looked this nice in my eyes in a whle. her hair DID look really nice as well.
