If you were wondering where Usher was Sunday night during the BET Awards, he already had plans to be overseas this past weekend and was unable to catch a plane in time to make the show. His publicist released a statement, which includes Usher saying that he plans on working on some sort of tribute when he returns to the U.S.

Usher’s new forthcoming album Monster has been receiving a lot of attention lately and with a new song about divorce and filling out papers slated to be on it, the entire album itself is bound to turn heads. Producer Sean “The Pen” Garrett apparently wrote a track about filling out divorce papers before he knew of any drama between Usher and his ex-wife Tameka Foster and had the R&B singer lend his vocals for the song, which holds no official title as of yet.

“[Songwriter] Sean Garrett called me to the studio,” producer Zaytoven, who’s worked on songs for Gucci Mane and OJ Da Juiceman, told MTV News last week in Atlanta. “He called like, ‘You’ve got to come hear this song. I’ve got a hit.’ ” Zay went to the studio and heard Garrett’s reference vocals on the track, and soon after heard the finished version with Usher’s vocals.

Usher: “This loss has deeply saddened me, with a heavy heart I composed this statement. May God cover you Michael. We all lift your name up in prayer. I pray for the entire Jackson family particularly Michael’s mother and all his fans that loved him so much. I would not be the artist, performer, and philanthropist I am today without the influence of Michael. I have great admiration and respect for Him and I’m so thankful I had the opportunity to meet and perform with such a great entertainer In so many ways he transcended culture. He broke barriers, he changed radio formats! With music, he made it possible for people like Oprah Winfrey and Barack Obama to impact the mainstream world. His legacy is unparalleled Michael Jackson will never be forgotten.”

Diddy: “Michael Jackson showed me that you can actually see the beat. He made the music come to life!! He made me believe in magic. I will miss him!”

Ludacris: “If it were not for Michael Jackson I would not be where or who I am today. His Music and Legacy will live on Forever. Prayers to the fam. R.I.P.”

Sports and entertainment family lawyer Randy Kessler is representing Tameka Foster Raymond, whom Usher filed for divorce from Friday (Jun 12) in Atlanta. Kessler and his client have yet to legally respond to the public filing, but he did report to various media outlets saying that Foster Raymond was a “great mom” and a “loyal wife,” all the while declining to comment on Usher’s conduct during the marriage.

“She’s a great mom,” Randy Kessler said. “She’s been a loyal wife. She’s trying her best to take the high road and not attack him.”

Kessler also represented rapper Mack 10 in his divorce from R&B singer T-Boz of TLC fame and opposed rapper T.I. and boxer Evander Holyfield in child-support cases, so he definitely knows his way around a courtroom, especially when it comes to domestic disputes.

So it’s official … Usher and Tameka are over! Recently confirmed reports state that the R&B singer filed for divorce Friday (Jun 12) to begin the process of ending his two-year marriage to Tameka Foster. The petition, which was filed at Superior Court in Atlanta, did not list a reason for the split but insiders close to couple say they are not surprised.

“No one I’ve spoken to is surprised,” a source close to the couple tells PEOPLE. “As bad as this is gonna sound, it was never a matter of ‘I wonder if they’ll divorce,’ but more like ‘I wonder WHEN they’ll divorce.’”

Several sources paint a picture of a troubled marriage that started unraveling even before the couple’s wedding in September 2007.

R&B singers Chris Brown and Usher were spotted kicking it courtside Sunday night as the Orlando Magic beat the Cleveland Cavaliers (99 to 89) in Orlando.

Not sure where that rumor came from, but if it were true it’d definitely be pretty funny and ironic. Shout out to Chris Brown Web for the pics!
