Usher is Engaged!

Sexy R&B star Usher has announced he's engaged to his stylist girlfriend Tameka Foster, and the two could wed before the year is over!

Foster, 38, ten years older than her fiance, has been wearing a ring that reportedly has 10 carats!

The couple drew attention last January when they were spotted frolicking in St. Bart's while she was still married. Foster, who has three kids, finalized her divorce from her ex-hubby only two weeks ago. Apparently, Usher's mom/manager Jonetta Patton wasn't too happy when she found out about the relationship, and fired Foster because "she didn't think she was dressing him according to the caliber of star he was," a source told the New York Daily News.

It looks like scandal couldn't keep these two apart!
