Usher dating alicia

After being branded a 'home wrecker' by some media and bloggers Alicia is maintaining that she did nothing wrong and that her husband, Swizz Beatz, was completely separated from his ex-wife before they got together.'We didn't start seeing each other until months after they had separated,' she said.'I was aware of all the false things that were being said about me it definitely hurt,' added the 30-year-old.

For over 3 years, Alicia Keys has been branded a homewrecker ever since she first started dating her now-husband Swizz Beatz.

After news broke that Swizzy was still very much married to his wife, at the time, Mashonda Tifrere, Alicia remained quiet for years about being the woman who allegedly broke up Swizz and Mashonda's relationship. Alicia finally defends herself for the first time when you read on....

"My Boo" is a duet between American R&B singers Usher and Alicia Keys, written by Usher, Keys, Jermaine Dupri, Adonis Shropshire, and Manuel Seal, Jr..

The song was released as the album's fourth single in 2004.

The single stayed on top of the Billboard Hot 100 for six weeks, making it the third most-successful single from the album after "Yeah! It was also ranked as the 36th biggest song of the 2000–2009 decade in the US.

Usher and Alicia Keys had previously collaborated with the remix of Keys' 2004 single "If I Ain't Got You", which was released in the United Kingdom.

In the June 2011 issue of ESSENCE magazine, cover girl Alicia Keys speaks out against those scandalous homewrecker accusations--years after they began.

YBF first broke the news of Alicia and Swizz's relationship back in 2007, with most people not believing it as Swizz was still very much married to Mashonda.

"I feel that [once] we put this 'My Boo' record on the album, it's complete. It's gonna go down in history as one of the best R&B albums of our time." The plan, according to Jermaine, is to release "My Boo" once "Confessions Part II" runs its course as a single. Usher's label says that while there has been talk about re-releasing Confessions, nothing is definite. Entertainment is hurting; his stomach is aching and his palms are sweaty. But the jump-off was too good and Ush wants more as he reminisces while in traffic.

He says the new version of the album should be coming out in August and will feature several songs from the U. Regardless, there's been plenty of Usher records floating around that are not on the original version of the album. "Me being a dummy, not knowing he was going to sell 1.1 million first week, I was on my Hollywood Kiss, being lackadaisical and took too long to send it back. I seen him doing 1.1, I put it out immediately; white label to the DJs, MP3s. I'm not a fool." The Song: "Sweet Lies" The Solidarity: Neptunes (writing and production) The Scoop: The untruth never tasted so good. He's been bamboozled and led astray, so here he is, second-guessing himself and wishing aloud that he could find that one "special girl." Usher wants her to "save the day" and hopes "she'll get it when I say, 'I don't want to go on in this life thinking, why baby why? "It was supposed to be just one night/ In and out and I'm out the door," he sings.
