He is insanely arrogant (Especially regarding his 'good looks') and appears to have no sense of humour or indeed a personality to speak of, outside of proclaiming his musical genius and general greatness. Oh, and his songs are wank.

Quite... I really don't get why he sells records...
... the 'good looks' really do need the parentheses.

I cannot stand it when, at the start of the video to "My Boo", he lifts up his top so we can all see his six pack. Oh, whoop de fucking do, what does he want, a medal? It still doesn't disguise the fact that his nose is practically the width of his entire face.

Usher: Boss...I got my 'one on the side' up the Hilary. Boss: Hmmm...is your 'true' relationship well documented by the press? Usher: Reasonably, seeing as she hasn't released a single in years and idiots across the nation fail to realise my nose ain't normal. Boss: We can make money from this. Usher: Money? From the fact that I can't keep my dick in my pants? Wow...momma sure never told me about that...then again, she never told me why I'm named after a cinema worker. Hmm Money...and popularity...from being an asshole....where do I sign up?
Nuff said.

He looks like a foetus and he cheated on one third of TLC- thus he is both a clown and an idiot. I do think he is talented and I like a fair bit of his music but he's such a cock and waay overrated since last year.

I hate Usher as much as the next right minded individual, but can we leave the state of his nose out of this, considering, if some of you hadn't noticed, most black people share the same type of nose, it's a genetic triat.

What, one that looks like it's been run over repeatedly by a steam-roller? Right, I'll look out for that next time then.

Totally see what you're saying, but the only people I've ever heard slag Usher for his nose in "real life" are black. Kinda like how every Chinese person ever seems to think Lucy Lui is ugly because of her exaggerated like woah eyes. He's the only black celebrity I hear dissed for having a big snozz. Not that's it's a defence for it or owt (indeed you could say it's still of form of internal racism) but I just thought I'd point that out...

Usher's nose is not a genetic trait, it's a mass of fuglyness.

Although the nose is a worthy issue, I think that the bloody 'U' necklace he wears is more wanky. It's the worst piece of bling I've seen.

The nose also has a severe problem in that it is emphasised by his evil pig eyes and sticky out ears. No amount of sit ups can compensate for a face like a slapped arse- and constantly drawing attention to it by commenting on his own godliness DOESN'T HELP!
p.s Don't go playing the race card- I don't hate him cos he's black- I hate him cos he's a cock.. Also I'll then have cause to play the puff card and say that only a homophobe would accuse me of being a racacist!

I read in the Mirror (!) that he is taking a year out to concentrate on baseball (or basketball). Hip hip hooray!
I think the nose looks big because of the short upper lip.

Like I've said before, I don't feel that Ushers nose should be an object of ridicule, as it's a characteristic of his African heritage, and something he should be proud of. If you think he's ugly fine, just say you think he's ugly, why make cheap jokes about his nose when it's a trait that so many other black people share.
I don't like Usher, but surely there are other and more legitimate things about him to make fun of.

Usher is a cuntbucket of the highest order. And I heard he likes nothing better than slurping on his warm sticky manbroth after staring at his own topless reflection post "confession". He also eats his own poo, calling it "droppings from God"
See? We can loathe him and avoid the Nose issue altogether! Go team!

No, I don't like him. His ego stroking tendencies are getting way out of hand. However, I'm not sure if ridiculing his nose is the way to go. Big nose, Wacko Jacko... It was bad enough the first time 'round.

I don't know about his nose because I can never bear to look at him he is such a twat. Do not see where this supposed talent comes from either, he's shite.

I'm glad others concur that he is, in fact, evil. Also, how are we meant to react when he plays an imaginary key board? Is this another way of him evidencing his greatness? I NEED ANSWERS! Everyone knows you should hate what you can't understand, so in the meantime I'll continue to plot his demise..
P.S If everyone (People posting in this thread) hates him- how does he keep having hitds?! Surely lucifer's powers have been enlisted..

He's a twat but he's made some good music, hence his continued success.
And twattydom never stopped people from being successful anyway - see Bono thread below.

I agree with Spinny. He's made and is still making some great music which I love listening to as long as I don't have to look at his smug gob. He's a brilliant dancer too.

That's right! If Usher was white, EVERYBODY would love him and everyone would be free to mock his looks. If he was white, ginger with loads of spots and glasses it'd be OK to take the piss out of his looks because only black people have genetically inherited traits...right?

I'll agree that he has a few decent tunes (mostly before the Confessions era), but I can barely bring myself to listen to them, because I can't stand his personality.
The worst thing I've seen him do was at a recent awards show. I believe it was the American Music Awards. He won the first award they gave out that night, and when they called his name, instead of hugging the people around him and the usual stuff people do when they win awards, he STOOD UP AND CLAPPED FOR HIMSELF for like 20 seconds. I wanted to vomit.

WRONG!, precisely where in my post do I say that it's ONLY black people who have traits?, you seem to have a total misreading of what I’m trying to say. Also, a black person is just as capable of developing spots and requiring glasses as a white one, so however distasteful and erroneous I might find it, I can live with these aspects of someone’s looks being ridiculed on this board, irrespective of their colour. The nose issue is quite different, as it affects a particular group of people. Although you can find some white people with naturally flat noses these are in the main a rarity (but still shouldn’t be fun of though), whereas if you go to places like Africa or Australia you’ll find that many of the indigenous black population have flat noses. Just like ginger hair is something that only certain white people in the main have, and isn’t ginger bashing becoming socially unacceptable now?. And I find it hard to believe that anyone could love Usher even if he was white.

So...we can't take the piss out of anyone's genetic traits? So no 'Posh looks like a pig' or 'Rachel Stevens resembles a munchkin' or 'I hate Prince Charles' big ears'? That's no fun. Just like ginger hair is something that only certain white people in the main have, and isn’t ginger bashing becoming socially unacceptable now?. No, ginger-bashing is still all the rage. Like mukluks, it's cruel and trendy.

I find him quite sexy I must admit but yes he is a TOOL. Plus his music has gone completely crap and then he becomes huge. Which hardly seems fair.
