Radio hosts push Usher's buttons

Watch what you say about Usher's lady!
The formerly press-shy R&B star is so mad for his fiancée, Tameka Foster, that he has been calling radio hosts to blast them for making fun of her.
According to syndicated host Tom Joyner, the mild-mannered Grammy winner recently threatened to "whup my a-" after Joyner joked about rumored tension between Foster and Usher's mom, Jonetta Patton.
Joyner said Usher called him off-air to complain about claims that Foster urged him to "fire" Jonetta as his manager. (Word is Usher was particularly unamused when Daily News contributor Jawn Murray quipped to Joyner during the broadcast: "I wonder if he's going to put a pink slip in her Mother's Day card?")
Joyner and sidekick J. Anthony Brown made much of Usher's fury last week aboard the Fantastic Voyage Cruise, where LL Cool J, the O'Jays and others performed during a Caribbean benefit for historically black colleges.
"Who's afraid of Usher?" asked Joyner, prompting laughter from ship guests. Joyner and Brown even invited anyone in the audience who knew Usher "to tell him we're not afraid of him." Usher is also said to have called WBLS host WendyWilliams and Hot-97's Angie Martinez to "ask them to lay off Tameka," a source tells us.
The personal call to Williams comes as a surprise to those who remember Usher hurling curses over his shoulder as he dashed away from the deejay on the red carpet of the Soul Train Awards a few years ago. (This was after Williams had invited Foster onto her show - only to kick her out of the studio when Foster failed to deliver the expected dish on why she was fired as Usher's stylist.)
"It's so out of character for Usher to take such a handson approach to the media," said Murray. "He must really love this girl."
Usher rep Chris Chambers said, "I don't know of my client calling or threatening anyone. Radio personalities are going to talk about current news. We can't put a muzzle on anybody."
Usher may have good reason to be protective of his mate. The rumor's flying again that she's pregnant. Though his reps have denied that the couple is expecting, spies at the recent Bahamian opening of the Cove at Atlantis noticed that Foster seemed to cover her tummy every time a photographer loomed.
