Usher: My kids make me laugh

Usher

Usher finds it funny when his young sons try to "manipulate the situation".

The R&B star has two sons from his marriage to Tameka Foster; Usher V and Naviyd Ely. Usher loves playing around with his young family, although he does have to lay down the law at times.

"I took them to my mother's house; she lives about two minutes away from me. Naviyd is addicted to peppermint, but he had already had dinner and dessert. So I told him he couldn't have any candy, and he walked off.

"A couple of minutes later, when he thought I couldn't hear, he was asking my mother if he could open a peppermint candy. He was trying to manipulate the situation," Usher told People, before adding he had a "good laugh" at his young son's crafty behaviour.

The star wants to pass on his life experiences to his sons.

"Every time I open my mouth, I try to give as much advice as possible," he explained. "If my children are unclear of something, I take the time to explain it to them."

The singer is currently embroiled in a bitter custody battle with his ex-wife Tameka, who recently claimed he cheated on her with a woman who had been a bridesmaid at their wedding.

Gemini:

This is a good time to establish a routine. Create a schedule that strikes a nice balance between your personal and professional lives. You're the type of person who needs plenty of intellectual stimulation outside of work. If you've been spending too much time at the office, reduce your hours. This may mean less money, but you can't put a price on happiness. You might even decide to take a job with unconventional hours so you can play sports or spend more time outdoors.More
