Looks like Usher and Ex-wife Tameka Raymond aren’t having the most amiable of custody agreements!

The ex-couple, while currently sharing joint custody, has been battling the ins and outs of their custody agreement for years. The two were in Fulton County Court in Atlanta, GA this morning to keep hashing it out.

Tameka wants full custody and claims that Usher secretly uses drugs. Of course,  Usher has denied these allegations and has pushed for more time with his kids.  The Fulton County judge ordered the couple to work out a temporary custody agreement in private mediation, and that he’d check on them later in the day. Hopefully, the two will come to a mutually-satisfying agreement!

Bieber’s everywhere lately! He’s out promoting his new Christmas album, “Under the Mistletoe”. The album entered the Billboard 200 chart at No. 1, with opening week sales of 210,000 copies.

He’s also still dealing with the fallout of being accused of fathering a  baby with Mariah Yeater. He went on Letterman last night, where he opened up about the ordeal, which ended up in him taking a DNA test.

Teen sensation Justin Bieber,17, has learned over the past few weeks that fame brings all types of people out of the woodwork, looking for a big payday.

But, he insists, he’s much smarter than that.

“I could smell a weasel, too” he told David Letterman on the Late Show after the late-night host said he was angry upon hearing of the paternity suit 20-year0ld Mariah Yeater filed last month claiming Biber was the father of her infant son. “It’s pretty crazy. People make up false accusations. … It’s gonna happen. Being in the spotlight, people can say whatever.”

But, to be sure there’s no confusion about Yeater’s assertions, Bieber took a DNA test to disprove any claims to paternity. “Yeah, I took it,” he confirmed. “They just swab your mouth.”

Johnny Depp has been tipped as the hot favorite to play Michael Jackson in a biopic about the life of the King of Pop.

Other contenders include Usher, Zac Efron, Will Smith or Justin Timberlake.

The director will have his hands full trying to cast the right person with a source revealing: “It’s going to be one mammoth task trying to get someone good enough at acting and dancing to fill Michael Jackson’s moon-walking shoes. They will need someone with edge, with uniqueness about them.”

Ghostbuster director Ivan Reitman and Up In The Air producer Tom Pollock are currently in talks regarding the project.

Who do you think should be cast as Michael Jackson?

Demi Lovato turned up the heat at last night’s 12th Annual Latin GRAMMY Awards, which took place at the Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino in Las Vegas.

I think the dress is beautiful, but is it to much for a 19-year-old?

On July 3, 2011 brothers Peter Berry, 9, and Aaron Berry, 8, and younger sister, Willa Berry, 6, lost their parents to a horrible crash in Texas. Peter and Aaron are paralyzed possibly for life. Willa suffered only broken bones. Celebrities have been reaching out to the family to help raise money to care for the children.

Justin Bieber, Britney Spears, Usher, and Lady Gaga have been asking fans to give a hand with donations at showyourhearts.org and via text message (texting BERRY to 85944 donates $10).

Matt Berry, the children’s uncles says that the celebrities call to arms have meant the world to him and his family.

“My wife had this family member in the Justin Bieber camp, and when the accident happened … they reached out to us and asked how they could help,” he told MTV News on Thursday. “So, it’s been pretty much organic from their reaching out. Right after the accident, he was asking for their names and praying with his mom for the kids. It’s not something we expected would happen, obviously.

“So, my understanding is that he wanted to do something to help, and the best way they could help was to create awareness,” he continued. “They have a lot of friends and contacts. And then, of course, once their campaigns started going, it looked like a lot of people joined it because I think everyone had some sort of feeling of empathy.”

The family is still mending: Peter and Aaron’s “lifelong conditions” have been amplified by the loss of their parents; meanwhile Willa is still trying to come to terms with the incident.

Matt Berry said of all the public support they’ve received has “definitely helped.” “Anything that goes to help the kids in their predicament [helps]. I don’t know how long it will continue. I’m not someone who likes to be in the public eye, so it’s a little bit awkward, but it’s amazing.

“It’s a little bit overwhelming,” he added, but he said that right now, the family is taking it “day by day” as they deal with the aftermath of such a tremendously tragic turn of events.

“If it was up to us, we’d pray that they were able to stand up in a couple of weeks and walk out of the hospital, but the likelihood of that happening is low,” he said, adding that the boys are readying for rehab to try to heal in any small ways. “There’s been a lot of people supporting us, and that’s huge. The ultimate dream is if in their lifetime, there’s enough momentum to figure something out and fix spinal-cord injuries. We’ve got two of them that need something special.”

It’s wonderful to see these celebrities helping a family in need.
