Usher ties the knot with his manager

Usher talked about his recent wedding on the Friday episode of The Ellen DeGeneres Show.

The 37-year-old married his manager, Grace Miguel, in September, during a secret wedding in Cuba.

The singer told the daytime host that his wife is a 'wonderful woman.'

The lovebirds started dating in 2009, and became engaged in January. 

During the show, Ellen told the My Way singer: 'It's good to see you and congratulations to you! He got married!'

The Confessions singer answered: 'In Cuba. It was really great!'

Adding: 'You know what's funny. We put this picture up and we were actually just in Cuba on a cultural exchange and people were like "hey, they got married."' 

He continued: 'Ya know the ring is on the other finger you guys. But we had a great time. Wonderful woman. Grace Raymond.' 

The artist talked about his bride to Billboard in October: 'I have an incredible partner and manager. She has helped me through some of the hardest times in my life and my career.'

Usher is referring to an Instagram photo posted by Grace, consisting of four photographs of her and the singer while in Cuba.

In two of the snaps, a gold band is visible on his fourth finger.

She captioned the photo with only one hashtag: '#HabanaCuba.'

During the interview, the artist revealed that he will be putting out new music soon, saying: 'It's coming next year... definitely next year.'

Usher has two children: eight-year-old Usher Raymond V and seven-year-old Naviyd Ely Raymond, with his ex-wife Tameka Foster. 

The U Got It Bad singer and Tameka were married for two years, divorcing in 2009.

 



 


 

Nicole Murphy still looking hot

She's a busy mother-of-five and entrepreneur and is no doubt used to multi-tasking.

So while running errands in West Hollywood on Thursday, Nicole Murphy took her beloved dog Babi for a walk at the same time. 

The 47-year-old TV personality went make-up free showing off her natural beauty as she donned figure-hugging gym wear.

Nicole teamed cropped ruby red leggings - which highlighted her shapely legs - with a white long-sleeve top and high-top trainers.

She covered her cropped brunette locks with a grey baseball cap with the words 'respect me' and carried a stylish black leather handbag.

Babi meanwhile rocked a stylish bright pink harness.

The reality star was seen spending some time with her daughters Zola and Bella earlier this week as the trio enjoyed an LA Clippers basketball game. 

Nicole shared a selfie with her two loves during the game and captioned: 'Clippers game with my babies' 

The businesswoman - who was married to Eddie Murphy from 1993 to 2006 - is co-owner of a brand of Muscato wine called Destiny and is also a jewelry designer. 

The retired model is believed to be single since her split from fiancé Michael Strahan last year, following a five-year engagement. 

Nicole officially divorced Eddie Murphy in 2006, but the duo co-parent their five children; Bria, 25, Myles, 22, Shayne, 20, Zola, 15 and 13-year-old Bella.

Eddie, 54, is now dating model Paige Butcher who is expecting their first child. 

 

 


 

Lewis Hamilton parties in Abu Dhabi

Lewis Hamilton may not have won a race since winning the F1 title back in October, but that wasn't going to stop the world champion celebrating following the end of the season.

After the finale of the last race in Abu Dhabi, where Hamilton was pipped to the win by Nico Rosberg, the triple world champion took to the night clubs to celebrate a successful season having retained the driver's title in front of his Mercedes team-mate.

Having attended the Amber Lounge with fellow F1 drivers, Hamilton then dashed off to his 'Victory Party' at Rush nightclub in the Viceroy hotel.

There the 30-year-old partied with Trey Songz (who was celebrating his 31st birthday), Kevin Hart, Ludacris and Tinie Tempah.

Ludacris posted a pic on Instagram of the quintet claiming: 'We've already made 2 days feel like a week #abudhabi.'

In a video uploaded by Hamilton to snapchat, Songz congratulated the Brit by shouting 'champ n****' in reference to his F1 title win.

It wasn't just friends Hamilton celebrated success with, as the world champion also enjoyed a heavy night on the alcohol with his mother who was also present at the club.

Hamilton's mother, Carmen Larbalestier, wasn't holding back on the alcohol neither as Hamilton encouraged her to down a glass of wine by saying ;‘Down it, go go go go, go go go, go mum go!' as the duo celebrated into the night.

After leaving the club and heading back to his hotel, Hamilton added 'Mum says Kevin Hart is a tiny bit shorter than her lol’.

The celebrations don't end there for Hamilton though, with the FIA gala on Friday seeing the Mercedes star collect his official driver's title trophy.

 

 

Yaya Toure and Gael Clichy take on jumper race for charity

Manchester City stars Yaya Toure and Gael Clichy warmed up for their dreaded winter's afternoon at Stoke on Saturday with a nail-biting Christmas jumper race.

The French-speaking pair battled it out to see who could climb inside 10 City Christmas jumpers and then put on a hat the fastest to advertise the club's range of festive knits.

It was neck and neck going into the final collar, but a slip from Toure saw Clichy sneak the contest by a nose.

By the end of the contest the City duo looked more suited to American football than the English game.

The pair apparently weren't as impressive as aptly named city winger Jesus Navas, who quite rightly excelled in the festive contest last season, managing eight jumpers in less than a minute.

However, in the video of his attempt Clichy seems to think Navas has an unfair advantage, describing his Spanish team-mate as 'the same size as my daughter'.

The players were helping promote the festive jumpers as part of a charity initiative which sees £5 given to the club's Citizen Giving charity, which helps young people through football, for each jumper bought.

Toure, Clichy and the rest of the City side will travel to Stoke on Saturday in an attempt to retain their position at the top of the Premier League table.
