The "OMG" hitmaker - who is currently locked in a bitter custody battle with estranged wife Tameka Foster over their sons Usher Raymond V, four, and Naviyd Ely Raymond, three - is aware some people are only interested in his celebrity status, but he can't help but find them attractive.
"There's great benefit that comes with it [being famous]. We can't ignore this thing! Wherever I go I will have some attraction, I can't run away from who I am. But it's very hard, like, Man, there's lights everywhere. And some women I've been able to experience or relate to or date or merge with, they run from it."
The singer says one of the biggest things he has learned about women is that they like "confidence" and never wanted to be treated in the same way:

Rihanna is dating New York Knicks star J.R. Smith.
The "We Found Love" hitmaker was spotting canoodling with the basketball star at Veranda nightclub in New York earlier this month and eyewitnesses say Rihanna appeared "really into him."
"They were very flirty in the club all night and holding hands. She was sitting on his lap and was really into him," a source told In Touch Weekly.
The sportsman is a controversial figure, in March he was fined $25,000 by the National Basketball Association (NBA) after Tweeting a photo of a woman's ass in a thong from his bed. "He is the team's most controversial player, so it's no wonder that Rihanna likes him," a source said.
Rihanna recently unfollowed former boyfriend Chris Brown on twitter after speculation emerged that an offensive song he released is aimed at the Bajan beauty and infers that she is promiscuous.

Simon Cowell has apologized to anyone his unauthorized biography has "embarrassed."
The 52-year-old X Factor boss spent last week "hiding under a pillow" as extracts from the sensational book by journalist Tom Bower were published - including claims he had a fling with fellow judge Dannii Minogue and wanted to sleep with third judge Cheryl Cole. The book also tells how he wanted to sack Gary Barlow from the show for being "too scripted," and how he deemed his ill-fated engagement to make-up artist Mezghan Hussainy to be a "big mistake."
Despite co-operating with the author, Simon insists he had no idea what would be included in the final copy, and has expressed his regret for shaming anyone.
Turning up for the launch of the book at the Serpentine Gallery in London, he said, "I wish to publicly apologize to anyone I embarrassed. I do have to apologize to members of my family. Ten years ago if I had read someone would be writing a book about me saying I made loads of money and shagged loads of girls I would have said, 'Great!' I spent the week hiding under a pillow and I couldn't bear to look at The Sun [newspaper]. I knew it was bad because friends were sending me sweet messages saying, 'Are you OK?'"

Adam Brody is not a smooth womanizer. The former O.C. star plays ladies' man Charlie Walker in new college movie Damsels in Distress, but insists he is nothing like his alter-ego as he would never be able to pull his cool moves off in real life.
"I haven't ever bought drinks for a stranger and sent them across the bar by way of introduction," he said.
However, Adam, 32, says his character is not as confident as he appears and actually has a lot of insecurities. "I think to a certain degree Charlie is intellectual and he is certainly striving to better himself. But at the same time, he's a bit insecure about his actual standing in life and where he's going. He's probably insecure about a lot of things and I can certainly relate to that. I can't really say if I'm intellectual or the opposite," he said in an interview with The Independent.

Sharon Osbourne’s Anger Over Simon Cowell Book
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Television, Hook-ups, Rivalries, Rumors,
Sharon Osbourne is furious with Simon Cowell for including her in his tell-all book. According to new unauthorized biography, Sweet Revenge: The Intimate Life of Simon Cowell, the 59-year-old matriarch "exploded" with rage upon learning that Simon was sleeping with Dannii Minogue when they all worked on the UK X Factor.
Now the matriarch - who eventually quit the show in 2008 because she no longer wanted to work with Dannii - has taken aim at her old boss from involving her in his "world of debauchery."
"I'm not Simon's mother - I don't give a toss who he f***s. That's none of my business. I think Simon thought he'd have complete control over this book. But how dare he bring me into it now? I don't want to be dragged into his little world of debauchery, thank you very much. I get on absolutely fine with Simon - and he will be fine - but I am p***ed off to be brought into it all again," she said.

Dannii Minogue ‘in a Dark Place’ Over Simon Cowell Sex Claims
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Television, Hook-ups, Rumors,
Dannii Minogue is reportedly "in a dark place" following claims she had a fling with Simon Cowell.
The 40-year-old singer-turned-fashion designer enjoyed several nights of passion with The X Factor boss after joining the judging panel in 2007, according to a new unauthorized biography, Sweet Revenge: The Intimate Life of Simon Cowell.
But having just split with Kris Smith, the father of her 21-month-old son Ethan, the revelation is said to have pushed an already upset Dannii to breaking point: "She's understandably distraught by all of this coming out just as she's struggling to cope with the breakdown of her relationship with Kris. It was all such a long time ago and to have to deal with it now in the wake of the last few weeks is just too much. She is incredibly raw and this is the last thing she wants to endure," a source said.
In the book, Simon, 52, is quoted as saying, "I had a crush on her. It was Dannii's hair, the sexy clothes and the t**s. I was like a schoolboy. She was foxy. She was a real man's girl. Very feminine."

Adam Brody: ‘I Broke up Jennifer and Brad’
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Divorce, Hook-ups,
Adam Brody has joked he split up Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt.
The former O.C. star worked alongside Brad on 2005 action movie Mr & Mrs Smith - where he met Angelina Jolie and subsequently left wife Jennifer - and he believes he may have played a hand in the changes in the actor's personal life.
"In terms of [Brad and Angelina], I hooked them up. I was like, 'Brad, you don't want to do this, man, this Jen thing - I don't see it.' He heeded my advice and I'm happy for him," he joked.
Discussing his own career, Adam - who is currently starring in Damsels in Distress, and has previously had parts in Jennifer's Body and The Ring - admits he picks movie roles according to his own personal tastes: "It's funny. I have been practical, but when I do look at my resume it does reflect my taste. Some I like more than others, but it does, by and large, reflect my taste, more than I think it would. [Especially] given how many things I've been willing to do that I don't personally care for."
