Usher's ex-wife Tameka Raymond thinks she has been stereotyped as a "gold-digger."
The 41-year-old stylist - who was married to the "Yeah" singer for two years until 2009 - claims she is fully able to support herself and claims those who call her a money grabber should think more before they speak as they are suggesting Usher is not loveable without his cash.
"I think this is the typical stereotype. If a woman who has lesser means, even if she is successful and hardworking and does her thing in her own right, marries someone that's what they call marrying up, someone that has more means or more money, they're automatically a gold digger. I haven't seen one unity where someone hasn't been called a gold digger. The woman is always a gold digger. It's kind of an insult to the men because it means they're not loveable."

Russell Brand: Me and Katy Were Incompatible
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Music, Divorce,
Russell Brand thinks he and Katy Perry were "incompatible."
The British comic split from the "Teenage Dream" hitmaker last December after just 14 months of marriage and he thinks they were just too different for their relationship to work.
"Sometimes it goes well, sometimes it doesn't. But if you sort of sense there's an incompatibility, then in any relationship, regardless of the status of the individual, it is kind of best to go separate ways," he said.
The Arthur star - who has been liked to several women, including Spice Girls singer Geri Halliwell, since splitting from Katy - believes it is very important for couples to share interests. "I think if you're someone who is really into mountain biking, it would be good to go out with someone else who's into mountain biking, and if you're really into Eastern mysticism, go out with someone else who into Eastern mysticism. I think if you're a devoted tennis professional and you get married to a crystal meth addict, you might have trouble. I've been in a lot of trouble!" he said.

Katie Holmes is finding it hard not to give daughter Suri everything she wants.
The former Dawson's Creek actress - who was given primary custody of the six-year-old tot as part of her divorce settlement from ex-husband Tom Cruise - knows it's important Suri is not spoiled but has told friends it's not easy telling her no because Tom is happy to indulge in his daughter's every whim.
"She said the divorce has been hard on Suri and she's acting out. Katie says no to some things, but gives a little leeway. She knows Tom is going to spoil her," one friend said.
While Katie wants Suri to stay grounded, it was recently revealed Tom had set up a "sizeable trust fund" for the little girl. The Top Gun actor - who is giving his former spouse $400,000 per year in child support until Suri turns 18 - has created the additional payment plan for the youngster upon Katie's request, although the youngster will be unable to fully legally claim the money until she's in her 30s.

Katie Holmes tries to keep her life in "perspective."
The former Dawson's Creek actress - whose divorce from ex-husband Tom Cruise was finalized last month - admits being in the public eye can be tough but knows she's a lot better off than some people.
Katie - who was given primary custody of the couple's six-year-old daughter, Suri, while Tom was awarded extensive visitation rights - said, "I have a lot of feelings about the press. But there are a lot of people with much bigger problems and who are less fortunate. I try to keep it all in perspective."
Katie also says she tries her best to keep Suri grounded, despite the youngster being born to incredibly wealthy and successful parents: "I spray-paint shoe racks, because, why not? I think, 'Oh, I'm a great mom' - and then it doesn't really pan out the way I think it's going to. But the intention's there. I've always painted and done crafts at home - I have to stay creative in every aspect [of my life]. My sister teaches art, and she gives me a lot of ideas."
