TAMEKA RAYMOND OPENS UP ABOUT DATING AND USHER AS A FATHER


Usher's tranny beard of an ex-wife Maneka Raymond opened up to Uptown magazine about life after marriage to the pop star, what kind of man she wants in and out of the bedroom (I'm sure high on the list is someone who is only into pussy) and Usher as a parent. You can read the full interview here

On working at an early age

I was taught to work. Ironically, my father’s mother and my aunt were also retailers, and I worked at both places from about age 7. I learned tons about fashion and how to make money all by age 10.

On her and her ex-husband parenting skills

He is a man very accustomed to having his way. This has nothing to do with how I parent. Trust me, I never will have a desire to keep a man away from his kids. I am not June Cleaver or head of the PTA, but I know I am a good mother.

On the bond with her eldest son Darrin, 21

Because I had him at such a young age, he and I basically grew up together and we are extremely close. But I am very conscious not to be an overbearing mother.

On her dating life

I am dating. It’s refreshing. I have not been single in a while. I got divorced and married in the same year. It was a run-on relationship. But a lot of guys like to play games. I like a man that’s a boss. I am not the dominant one. But a lot of the ones with the right mind-set wear OshKosh overalls. And if they are not fly, I don’t like them. I don’t bring men around my children. They have never met an ‘Uncle Tony.’ The two that I did bring around, I married.

On being grateful of the past but looking forward to the future

Being raised in Oakland, and having been able to see and enjoy five of seven continents, and working in such a highly competitive field, makes me very proud. I never imagined some of these things to be obtainable. And my sons teach me the meaning of true, unbiased love
