She is NOT UGLY. She’s a black woman darker than a brown paper bag and that’s a problem for some.
You are spot on.
Yup! It's so sad
Shes gorgeous she is literally a work of art. I hope to God this wasnt what solit them up. Peep they tried doing the same to Simone Biles and her husband
I use to be one of those fans that felt a way as I am a Usher super fan. I will never forget when Tameka wrote the open letter that was posted in Ebony/Essence and I was in awe and felt so bad that she had to even do that. Her writing was amazing and she was so vulnerable and showed that she’s a person. I reached out to her on Twitter, she responded…numerous times and was so funny and nice. I hate how folks treat others. She’s phenomenal.
Why did you feel that way about her? I am trying to understand why she was so hated. BTW, I am also a super fan of Usher.
@@coffeebooksandthoughts I never stated I hated her, as a fan it was more of “why did he get married?” It could have been anyone and still could have felt that way.
@@Tamiko878Understood
I never not liked her and I'm I glad I didn't jump on that bandwagon. She is so funny. I can see us hanging out
I think fans forget they don’t actually “know” these people they admire and follow. You can love a person’s talent, skills, etc but their personal life is their choice and business. I’m a Beyonce super fan but I could care less about her personal life…In reality and real life…I don’t know the girl. But hey…that’s just me.
23:18 I love her response. A guy I know told me, "Women coming out of college are your competition." I'm 44 years old. As much as people would LOVE to cosign this man's comment, it doesn't fit my life as I don't view other women, younger or older, wealthier, more attractive, etc as my "competition" and NEVER WILL!!!! I LOVE ME, and I also want others to love themselves! I genuinely love to see people win and succeed! There could never be competition between 2 very different people ANYWAY! ❤❤❤
Competition for what? It can only be for a man he was thinking because it's not a job. With that being said, if I did compete for a man's attention against any other woman, then I've bumped my head and forgot that man GOD has for me will want me. I am unique.😊
@@sjg5994 exactly!!!!!!
Thank you for being transparent. It takes a mature and seasoned woman to share her pain with humor.
I wish people would hurry up and realize that love is not an aesthetic. It's not even a feeling. It's a decision that you make daily to honor, respect, and see and accept someone for everything they are. Even if it's ugly.
Whew, you ain’t lying one bit! It gets ugly!!!
Tameka is freaking hilarious!! Laterras, she was a wonderful choice for a guest. Thank you for having her and I'm on my way to sign the petition. Rest in heavenly peace, Kyle.
I agree Tameka was a pleasant surprise Funny as all get out!
Laterras I love how you humanize all of your guests. You still ask the questions we all want to know, but not at the expense of them!
Yes!
Loved Tameka's energy! Wishing her nothing but wins along her journey.
This was an amazing interview!! I remember how ppl used to talk about her even saying how Usher mother didn't like her etc. She is funny, authentic and so refreshing. Prayers to her on he continued journey.
He put it in a song about the mama😩
Im confused as to why people are unsure of why Usher chose her...she is a Beautiful Woman! I remember when he went off in her defense pubically...he unapologetically vocalized that he married a beautiful black woman! At the time, I felt so affirmed to see a black man publically proclaiming his love for his black wife.
I was always baffled by that also. It's none of our business who people we don't personally choose to marry.
Unfortunately 'society' has told us that women with 3 kids from previous marriages/relationships do not deserve to marry a superstar of that caliber which is rubbish. She is such a beautiful, funny and engaging woman and deserves the best.
@@ninah5938What society thinks is garbage. God qualifies the ppl who ppl think are unqualified...
@@ChozenbytheAlmightyplease read my comment properly. I was happy for her but society tells us that 'certain' groups of women do not deserve a man that is considered the 'price'.
Have a blessed day.
@@ninah5938 I know what you said and I was saying what society says is trash not what you said. Sorry if it came across like that.
Loving the interview so far! Tameka is hilarious😆 😁✨I can see why Usher fell in love with her. She’s a whole vibe!
Same
My sentiments exactly! She's marvelous!💐🦋
Tameka is a beautiful person. I love her open-ness. A survivor and thriver. Bless her.
As well....As BEE U TEA FULL!!!🥰♥️
She was very authentic, hilarious, and beautiful! I got the audio book and am looking forward to listening. I felt she was getting a bad rap during her marriage with him. My condolences for her loss and I hope those changes get made. As a person who's buried a child, my heart ached when I heard that. Yet another great episode with relevant subject matter.
I always date older men but lately I’ve been wondering if I should date my age or younger. These older men are big babies🤦🏾♀️ Maturity doesn’t come with age nowadays. That’s been my experience.
You’re absolutely right.
Sweetheart I’m 56 and it has never come with age!
@@moniquedependable3782 I hear you!
how do you do it. I always looked at it as gross. When I was 25 I would have 45 to 55 year old men hitting on me. I would always say sir what are going to do . nahh I like Frosted Flakes you are on Raisin Bran. I like to go out you want to dinners after church. Nahhh
I dated older men when I was younger, and you’re right they are all immature after you realize what you really want.
I haven't reached half of the interview and I am loving this. I feel like I am hated by most of my coworkers for the way I carry myself and the standard I strive to uphold. Sometimes I feel like picking myself apart I remember that God has a special plan for my life so I just laugh at them and keep focus on God. Thanks for that.
Same here re co-workers. They try to belittle you by asking, “where are you going” when you dress nicely. Then they start to try and look like you with hair done, nails done etc. Women can be so jealous. I’ve found this out……..
God is love. Even though we are set apart as Christians. We still want to smile, show respect and be kind. A guy once said to me “people at that church think they are better than others”. We want to remain approachable. We don’t know who is looking to give their lives to the Lord and you may be the only “church” they see.
@@CocoChanelle-1 my sister spreads lies about me every chance she get and she is at church almost every day. Thank God I know him for myself.
@@marshastoddart3665 that’s called a divisive spirit and it’s used to bring another person down. You need to confront her about the false accusations.
Great episode. Tameka is down-to-earth and hilarious! She gave HER answers, that level of realness is appreciated.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤Go Tameka ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I so adore Tameka. She’s a complete package and her style is dope. She’s intelligent, articulate and graceful. Listening to her interviews and following her on IG shows her humanity. She’s DOPE!
I love Tameka. She reminds me of Whitney Houston. She's gorgeous, funny, classy, and tough. I have always admired her resilience in continuing to keep going despite all that she has gone through. Great interview.
I absolutely love this woman. Her sense of humor and transparency is refreshing
Yes very fun. I would have a fun time with her. We would be laughing all day. I love it!
Great episode! As an Atlanta naive, I know all about Lake Lanier. One of my high school classmates died there in 2004. I signed the petition. Great initiative! RIP Kyle 💙
I love what Temeka said about not choosing to suffer and the fact that life is good. For me life is good because I’m learning who my Lord is and allowing Him to call the shots in my life.
When you marry Usher you keep the name until you are replacing it with your new husbands!!!!! I completely get it ❤
No ma’am 😂 just no. Isn’t he remarriedv
@@ouranoswealthgroup7042 no maam a girl friend who he now has 2 kids with
A lot of divorced women keep their married name because of their children. Kids are funny that way and want you have to the same last name as them. when they have children...speaking from experience
@@ouranoswealthgroup7042my mom was separated from my dad for at least 16 years when he died and my sister's mother even longer. Dad been dead 12 years and they both still have his last name. What's the problem
Hello Laterras! I want you to know that I am absolutely determined to sit on that yellow couch and share my story one of these days. You can mark my words. Please continue to be obedient to God, as through your obedience, I have experienced significant physical, spiritual, and emotional growth. Thank you so much!
I pray you have your time on the couch!!!!!
@@tylynn256 Thanks ❤
Standing in agreement that you’ll be on that couch! I have felt the same way!
I honestly really want more non-celebrities on that yellow couch, with real stories. A lot of these people, we hear their stories on multiple platforms, books, social media, etc. Their same stories. I want to hear more stories from regular degular folks because we can relate to that deeper. Because we get to hear how people work through things, without the resources these known people have.
I Totally Love HER! So Candid, so authentic, so real and Hecka off the script Hilarious !! Please have her back+
Laterras hasn’t fell out laughing in that chair since the wig incident 🤣🤣🤣I loved this episode❤❤
Facts!
lol❤
Love Her!..She Doesnt Pretend 2 Be Anyone But Herself!…And, Shes, So Much More!..I Can Feel Y Usher Selected Her! lol❤
Pleasantly Surprised 2 Have Selected This Platform 4 Auzzie Entertainment!..It’s Been That & So Much More!!!❤
Loved This Whole Conversation!!!❤
She was awesome! So much respect for her ❤Thank you for having her on your platform 👏🏽👏🏽
I felt so bad seeing her in court fighting for her kids, and losing her son. Glad to see her laughing now
🎉
All smiles indeed 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Do you feel bad when men in court fighting for their kids as well?
@@BjtheLawyer_Do they do it while grieving the loss of a freshly dead child?
@@BjtheLawyer_why are y’all like this!?🙄
OMG! She’s hilarious. Great interview. I always enjoy myself here on the Dear Future Wifey Podcast. Continued Prayers for the loss of your son Ms. Tameka. That’s a pain that never goes away. Not speaking from experience but from people I know that has experienced it. The chemistry the two of you had was a great watch. Not in a romantic way but just the fun you had with her doing the interview.😊
THIS INTERVIEW SURPASSES WHEN THE WIG FELL OFF THE GUEST. TAMEKA YOU ARE HILARIOUS. YOU NEED TO DO STAND UP COMEDY. I TRULY HAVE ENJOYED THIS INTERVIEW AND YOUR INTELLIGENCE YOU ARE SOOOO PHONOMINAL!!! YOUR BOOK IS A MUST READ ❤
Bout time. We been waiting all day, brother. Hope all is well. Sings, "These are her confessions...."
I was saying the same thing… #hurryupnpost
Lol good one
Such a good conversation. We all should be more responsible for what we say.
Tameka is telling the truth about this generation. Thanks for sharing your story. We are sending you love 💕 prayers and blessings. 💕✌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿
I love this Queen's energy, her authenticity and her entire presence. I'm so thoroughly impressed and grateful with this interview. I will definitely be purchasing this book. ❤❤❤ Thank you for doing this interview.
This interview was awesome! Thank you for having Ms. Raymond on the show. I’ve never seen her in an interview and I’m so happy I had the opportunity to see this. May God so richly bless your podcast continuously.
Beautiful Black woman, I am so sorry that you had to go through this. You have so much more to offer than your beauty. Stay Blessed!
Loved this interview; Tameka is refreshing, hilarious, classy, my stylist in my head & more! Keep shining Queen! ✨👑💖
I love her! She is full of life and personality. She has experienced a lot but still majors in joy. My favorite laughs of yours Laterras is when you slide off the chair or lean to our viewing left and your right hand goes up.
😂😂
This is by far one of my favorite interviews! It was heartfelt and enlightening I love Tamika transparency and the way I laughed- Thank you Laterras for using your talents & gifts You are Amazing!!❤😂🙌🏽🙏🏽
Glad you enjoyed it!
She's hilarious, love her personality!--so real and genuine
TAMEKA!!! My girl!! I been with you! I hated how people treated you!
I kept my last name for my kids. It was easy. The last one just graduated college, I bought a new home, and applied to change my name! It's time!
Here I stand in a beautiful state 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 Yes ma'am!
My condolences to you. May Kyle RIP.
I don't know about him Oder either. I need my man to be younger. I need him to still have some youth in him. I gotta catch up and still want to travel & have fun.
I want a partnership in my marriage. I don't wanna do everything again.😩
Men need to be able to take care of himself! Not going to date no broke man. Period! Not gone do it! Talking about he will pay the gas & water bill while I pay the rest. No sir!
Hilarious!!! She was really good, so happy you had her on Dear future Wifey. The world needed to see her for who she really a funny down to earth person who lives her life LIT
I just bought her audiobook. I was so heartbroken when her and Usher didn't make it. She is stunning and funny, just such a shame...glad she is in a beautiful state❤❤
This interview was fun to watch. Sad she was scrutinized & handled so negatively in the public eye. I hope she, & people like her, realize that many of us out in the public do wish people well & are not into negativity. May her present & future be well.
I dont blame her for keeping the name. They have children together. I wouldn't change it for that purpose either. Tameka is lovely.
Thank you for this interview ❤ I appreciate her candor and wit. Very relatable and comfortable in her skin. Reminded me that it's okay to have a standard and not be above humanity. Warm laundry can be comforting 😂😂😂
Tameka being so true to herself and unapologetically who she is-is refreshing. I truly had no intentions of looking at this whole segment in one sitting but I couldn't stop watching. Great interview Laterras!
I knew of Tameka before her marrying Usher, as a stylist and being from the Bay Area like her as well. Bay Area women are down to earth, hilarious and chill, but don’t cross us. It sickened me how people disrespected her because she so-called ruined their fantasy of being with Usher. She’s beautiful, funny and chill.
I am 23 years old and I completely agree with Tameka about this generation, MANY are a lost and confused about everything.
I think Usher's mom is a real meddler. She's one who also caused the issues.
She has never been ugly but it’s sad how Hollywood only thinks light or white is beautiful. But to me she was beautiful than and now
I'm 49 and can totally relate to this younger generation not knowing how to do anything unless it's te h related. I like her personality she is funny and relatable.
Great episode. Love her transparency and her ownership of who she is and becoming. ❤
I watch this show all time and this was one of the best episodes! I love how Tameka kept things real and was very open. She found it very hilarious about the scrutiny she faced. I love her attitude and she is very beautiful!
I love her sense of humor!
She’s so real!
She is a breath of fresh air. I love her 🎉
This was good! I love when you bring someone to the couch that can personally give their own testimony transparently and with truth. She is very mature in speech and state of happiness shows. I will get the book! Blessed to be a blessing!
I absolutely love this episode. She is so funny, open and beautiful. I definitely will try to get your book
I enjoyed this interview I have followed her story as it unfolded and she has been through so much as a wife and a mother !
She is definitely standing tall in a beautiful place ! I hope more people see this podcast ❤ Beautiful inside and out ! 🌸
Oh and that book is amazing I bought the audio book to go with it and it was an experience! I cried and laughed she emotionally took me there. You have to buy it with the audio for a wonderful experience she is an incredible author! Wish you the best looking forward from more of Ms. Tameka Raymond.
Tameka should have wrote a book on how to marry successful men. Best seller guaranteed. She’s funny. Great interview as you always do.
I never really paid alot of attention to their relationship but of course I heard the negative. This has completely changed my narrative of her. This is one of the best episodes I have watched. She's hilarious and seems very genuine and REAL. I see why Usher fell for her. Definitely a Tameka supporter now.
Great interview. Her personality is wonderful. I remember how cruel some folks were . I’m so glad she is doing well. I had no idea she was so personable.
Be your own couple goals... Thank you for another insightful episode 😊
This was a fun episode. It was good to see this side of her.
Thank you Tameka! I love your beautiful, funny, personality. Great to know you’re Still Standing. God Bless you and your family 🙏🏾
It's nice to hear from her and she is able to tell her story. God Bless!
Great interview! So sorry for her loss with her son. Yes, we have to safe guard our relationship from “confused admirers”. Sometimes they don’t even recognize they are being used by the devil. ❤ #Peterdidn’t
👏
I absolutely love Tameka's interview ❤️ she is authentic, real, and funny 😂 I really enjoyed your interview ❤❤ it's interesting that these people are real. God bless her heart and wishes her all the best life has to offer 🙏 ❤️ ❤
They hated her skin tone too. Props to Usher for choosing such a spirited, beautiful woman. I don't know where her haters are now but she gets the last laugh.
She's hilarious 😂 Loving this interview so far! 🍿
I absolutely enjoy every episode!!! It is imperative that I sow into Kingdom Royale because of the way this podcast feeds my life. This is holy ground!! Usher us into the presence of the King.
I like her personality! So glad she was able to show her true self to the world❤
Great interview! Love how vulnerable she was and just a realist ! Just followed her and purchased the book !
Ohhhh I loved this podcast. Tameka’s a trip and crazy as heck. Loved this ❤❤
I love Tameka ❤❤ glad she crossed paths with Usher so we could meet her ❤️❤️
My husband is 11 years younger..I am 53 and we have been together for over 20 years and people usually thinks we are newly wed...it works...I look like I am in my 30s....nothing is wrong with keeping it younger and not too seasoned 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I remember when Usher had his reality show (he was one of the first) and his mother did not like her so much so that she didn’t even go to the wedding. That marriage was doomed from the start but at least she moved on somewhat
40:26 😂 I like her....she do have a good spirit and a good soul. You can tell. ❤❤❤
I've always been a fan! She seems to be such a peaceful person.. and hilarious!
Is it just me that thought they are doing a whole lot of talking but no information is being passed on??
Great episode and, great guest. I can completely identify with her on the dating piece. She had dying laughing explaining her age requirements! 😂 I feel her on that subject!
Yooo this lady is gold. Got me laughing out loud fareal
Thank you for sharing your experience with us, you was very funny😊
She is hilarious! I love her! Not the too much seasoning ahahahahaha! Talk about Black Don't Crack! Sistah is just gorgeous! Another great episode. Keep em' coming!
OMG Tameka is Funny. She reminds me of Jessica Ready!! They would do some serious cutting up together and I would be here for it!!! 🤣
I love her humor. I’m glad she is able to just be now.
Her losing her son does seem fresh. I can't believe it was only 11 years ago. Praying for her and her family's continual healing. I cant imagine how the pain from losing your child.
Amen it sure wouldn't be easy praise God we have him to lean on that boy is smiling down from heaven
Great interview. It was much more than I expected. Tameka is hilarious! 😍
🤣🤣🤣🤣The “too much season, you can over season your food” I hollered….took me out 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I truly appreciate how you always are able to bring the conversation back to the main point.
Thank you
Well said. " I am my own couple's goal." I don't measure what I desire for a kingdom partner through someone else's relationship.
Tameka energy was everything thank you for your presence great interview ❤
Tameka is beautiful. I love her personality. I remember they absolutely hated this woman. They attacked her all the time. It was sad.
😂😂..I thoroughly enjoyed this interview with Ms.Raymond!! She seems to me to be an Amazing, Real Woman!! I appreciated her humor and candidness ❤️❤️...She reminds me of Me. Don't Play Wit It!! And we Good!! I hear ya her growth and can tell she has been putting in her self work and taking accountability for self.❤️❤️..My condolences to you Sweetie for the passing of her Son!! 🙏..I'm sure he's proud to see how you are Standing and advocating!! I also like that even in your growth, you still are yourself and good with it!!! May your next love reflect and support the Queen in you and realize the gift you are to him!!! Great Show 💋💋
I'm looking forward to watching this and learning more about her and her story! ✨
She was a great guest. Hilarious, vulnerable, truthful.
😂 Women Date a Man who know how to treat you with love, patience, respect and kindness.
We are Not fighting that isn't Christ like😅
Exactly I Respect a Kept Man❣️
Excellent interview I knew nothing about her prior to this. I love her attitude and her spirit and her confidence. Really enjoyed this interview.
She’s so funny, I love her! I appreciate the honesty shared and the modest, yet bold, way she speaks of herself. It reminds me of myself, lol. 🙌🏽👑
She was hilarious
As a mother, " The Heart is what you hear first"❤❤❤❤
