Usher Refuses to Pimp His Baby
photo courtesy of PR Photos/www.prphotos.comUsher slammed Hollywood celebrities who have made million-dollar deals for exclusive baby pictures, insisting that he’d never use his child to make money. He was rumored to trying to sell pictures of Usher Raymond V, his five-month-old son with Tameka Foster, but he vows he’d never follow Jennifer Lopez, Nicole Richie, and Christina Aguilera in appearing on magazine covers with their babies for money.
Instead, he reportedly posed for no money on the cover of a special Father’s Day edition of Essence magazine. He told the New York Post Page Six:
“In no way would I ever pimp out my child for money. I am livid that people talk about my child. What makes you a man more than being a father to your child? I recognize I gave anonymity away when I became an artist, but to have people try to paint a horrible picture of what’s so beautiful - it’s obvious someone is trying to stop something so beautiful.”
Aw, how nice…posing with his baby for free should give him the Father of the Year award!
