USHER: MARRIAGE IS STILL ON

R&B star Usher has moved to dismiss suggestions that his planned wedding to his girlfriend is off.

The Grammy award-winner cancelled his wedding on Saturday, prompting reports that his relationship with Tameka Foster had broken down.

But speaking briefly to US Weekly magazine the star, who has also appeared on screen and stage, suggested the wedding would be rescheduled.

"As of right now we don't have a date but we will let you know when we do," Usher said as he and his partner arrived in Manhattan.

Following the cancellation, rumours circulated that Usher's pregnant girlfriend had been rushed to hospital after experiencing problems, but the 28-year-old singer moved to allay fears.

"Everybody's fine. Tameka and the baby are fine," he said.

The couple arrived hand-in-hand at the Mandarin Oriental in New York yesterday and when asked how she was feeling by a reporter, Tameka said: "We're good. We're all doing great now."

Usher and his 37-year-old girlfriend got engaged in March and are expecting their first child together later this year.
