Usher has seen his personal life spread across headlines for the past year, even as he released his latest album Looking 4 Myself, and in an upcoming interview on Oprah's "Next Chapter" the singer gets candid.

On Tuesday, Oprah's OWN network released a teaser clip of the pre-taped interview. Ush didn't say much during the clip, but Oprah threw a number of candid questions toward him that he will be sure to answer. "Were you faithful to her?" Oprah asked Usher about his ex-wife Tameka Foster.

The media mogul went on to ask the R&B icon about his custody battle as well as his relationship with his mother. Oprah seemingly grills Usher about everything. In response to his January 2011 breakdown in a concert in Germany he simply says: "I felt like I would never perform again."

There is no sign as to whether or not the two discussed the recent death of his 11-year-old stepson Kile Glover, who passed away in July after he was severely injured in a boating accident.

On the musical side of things, Ush has had a very successful year releasing his seventh studio album Looking 4 Myselfwhile spawning a number of singles like "Climax" and "Lemme See" with Rick Ross.

The interview does seem to get light-hearted. Usher could hardly contain himself when Oprah asks if he makes love to his own music. "I love that," he responded while laughing.

The entire interview will air on Oprah's "Next Chapter" Sunday, September 16, at 9 p.m. ET on OWN.

    • Wait, Burning Man is going online-only? What does that even look like?
      You could have been forgiven for missing the announcement that actual physical Burning Man has been canceled for this year, if not next. Firstly, the nonprofit Burning Man organization, known affectionately to insiders as the Borg, posted it after 5 p.m. PT Friday. That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
