Usher knew he was going to end up apologizing after chastising bitch-boy Chris Brown on video — but he said what had to be said anyway.
JD shot the video during a break in a recording session at his studio Monday night with producers Johnta Austin and B. Cox as part of his “Living the Life” video series on his YouTube channel.
In the video, Usher, JD, B.Cox and Johnta dissed a photo of Christina Milian, then Usher went in on bitch-boy:
“I’m a little disappointed in this photo,” Usher said. “After the other photo? C’mon, Chris. Have a little bit of remorse, man. The man’s on Jet Skis? Like, just relaxing in Miami?”
Yesterday, Usher’s camp released a half-hearted statement apologizing for the truth:
“The comments made during a recent recording session amongst friends were taken out of context and blown out of proportion. I apologize on behalf of myself and my friends if anyone was offended. The intentions were not to pass judgment and we meant no harm. I respect and wish the best for all parties involved.”
The video link was taken down by YouTube. But thanks to Dimewars.com you can
watch the video here.
Later that same night, the friends, who refer to themselves as Ocean’s 5, showed up at Martini Mondays night at Tongue & Groove to celebrate the birthday of Interscope’s Shawn “Tubby” Holiday. Pictured above is Tubby raising a glass, Von Johnson (white vest) who is married to Nicole of 3 Brown Girls, video vixen-turned rapper Lola Luv and a guest.
Prince Williams of ATLPics.net has all the pics from the party!
Ocean’s Five… HA HA HA HA … more like Coy Pond BBQ .. lol
Chile(s) Booooooo
hilarious … just got dang hilarious …
ATL-Z listers … Chuckles was right on target … lol
I heard Ed lover talk about this, this morning. I don’t think Usher should’ve apologized. He didn’t say anything that everyone didn’t say. I’m tired of celeb’s trying to put this holier than thou attitude front to the public.
If you said you said it. Man up and take responsibility for your words.
Did anybody know they were known as the Ocean 5 before that video..lol
Sandra I hope a male in your family never makes a HUGE mistake and hits a woman one time. If this was a day in and day out beat down then yes he would be a bitch boy. Anyways…..
Usher is the last person that needs to be throwing stones. He is just happy his main comp. has taken a temp. hit.
Folks kill me. Why make statements that you will have to apologize for later? If someone stepped to me about the tape, my reply would be, “yeah, I said that ish. and what?”
Guess this is what happens when keeping it real goes wrong.
they are the Coy Pond BBQ Posse …
pretentious black folk are the WORSE … see Puffy for example
@Iscream:
We are >>>>>>here<<<<<<<<
Was typing almost the same thing you said….
If you’re not going to stand behind your words then don’t say it! I agree with you Yvonne and Iscream I just don’t understand it. Michael Steele and Usher words of wisdom…Say what you mean AND mean what you say…especially when the statement/comment is on point!

WHOOOOOOO???????
WHO???????????
WHO????????????
usher is wack! everyone knows she looks TERRIBLE. blonde does not look good on everyone. as for CB, if Rhianna is over it, i think we should get over it. there is a big diff in getting your asked kicked just because and having a one time fight. EVERYONE should keep their hands to themselves. if he was on a jet ski so what.
i’m pissed that they put this all on Usher because what he said wasn’t bad..the person talking crazy was Johnta. I understand Usher is the focus in this because he’s the bigger name..but give it a rest already
What the hell is wrong with everybody, having to apologize? Since when do you have to apologize for speaking your mind? We are a nation of pu@@ies, because we need a damn apolgy for every damn thing. Today on the Tom Joyner Morning Show, they were talking about Chris Brown hasn’t apologized. To who, the American people? I’m sure he did it to the person he needed to, who the hell are we that we need an apology from that fool.
@ Yvonne & KC we’re here.
I didn’t see Jay Z issue an apology for saying what he said about the situation.
Will & Jada spoke out and didn’t back pedal on their words.
So why is Usher saying sorry?
cosign with 2bme…Johnta was off the chain in that video. Usher was much milder than him. It was funny to me especially when they imitated James Brown – lol
It appears that Lola Luv’s silicone injections have spread to her face!!! LMAO!!! @ plastic shots!
@Isc I said all along Will and Jada had the best comment about the entire situation.
@Dhoward I said along time ago when ppl jumped on Chris after his statement that he didnt owe me an apology he needs to be telling Rihanna sorry and im sure he has over and over. If she like it I love it. I was hooked on this story from day one but im over it now..lol
As far as Tom Joyner goes no matter what Chris does(PSA, speaking to young men about domestic violence etc) he will never get off Tom’s shit list.
i agree with 2bme . usher is taking all the heat when he didn’t say anything as bad as johnta . he shouldn’t have apologized. i may not agree with how everybody jumped on the i hate chris brown bandwagon , but people have a right to speak their mind .
daisy i finally read what jada and will said and i agree they had the best response.
Usher is starting to look old…
Nicole lets her husband hand around loose women and alcohol like that?
The interesting thing about all of this for me is people are apologizing left and right for their statements about the situation, Rihanna is straight up in hiding, but Chris is chilling. I agree with Usher. The fun in the sun thing was not cool. If Rihanna were out there flossing with him maybe I would have taken it better, but her hiding and him flossing was not cool.

Yea, if anybody should be apologizing, its Johnta! He was the one who started that… he was in the back making gestures and everything. That’s not fair that they are putting all the blame on Usher. All of them had a hand in it. In all reality, what Usher says was fair… How you gonna beat ya girl down like that and then be in Miami chillin’ like you ain’t done nothin’?… even though she was with him, it doesn’t look good right now. The way Chris Brown busted up Rhinna face like that…that ain’t no small thing.
That video was funny though…LOL
Songbird27
I’m with you. The video was hella funny thanks to Johnta. It’s unfortunate that Usher got all the credit for it when Johnta was the clear star. Because of him I now refer to them as Ike and Tina 2.0.
I agree Ursh didnt have anything to apologize for. The video had me LMAO!!!
i have never seen grown A$$ men sit around and talk about people like this! Ursh, did you forget how your wife looks? Dude, watch the video again after you wake up after laying next to your wife! Johnta is HILARIOUS! I agree with Ursh comments about Chris Brown however, i dont think he shouldve issued that retraction statement!
that’s what Usher shoulda said when he saw Tameka NOOOOOOOO…THAT AIN’T IT! LMAO…
