"Yeah!" singer cancels his wedding with Foster

Hours before the wedding was to take place, actor and R&B singer Usher and his pregnant fiancée Tameka Foster have changed their minds to tie the knot. While the Grammy winner did not give reason behind the refusal, his publicist in a last-minute statement confirmed that wedding bells would not be ringing.


"It was announced today that the wedding ceremony for Usher Raymond, IV and Tameka Foster was canceled," said publicist Patti Webster. "No additional information will be given regarding the circumstances of the cancellation, but we hope the privacy of this matter will be respected."


Foster, 37, and Usher, 28, were due to wed at music mogul Antonio “LA” Reid’s Hamptons estate in New York on Saturday (July 28). Between 70 and 100 guests were expected to attend the ceremony. A fellow R&B crooner Robin Thicke was reportedly scheduled to perform at the reception.


Last month, the multiplatinum singer announced that he and his longtime girlfriend are expecting a baby in the fall of 2007. "We are extremely excited at this point in our lives planning our wedding and the joy that comes with expecting our first child together," the couple said at the time.
