IN TODAY'S EDITION OF: AS THE USHER PUBLICITY WHEEL TURNS: TAMEKA THROWS A 'BITCH ASSNESS' BITCH-FIT ON HUBBY'S VIDEO SET.

Usher, Tameka and Usher's PR team are wasting no time at all in the hopes of bringing as much he say/she say drama and utter madness before his new album drops this summer. According to the New York's Post Page Six, our favorite 21st century talking, walking version of a negro spiritual reportedly and allegedly put on a clown act on the set of Usher's new video, Love in the Club last weekend, making it apparently clear that she isn't going to let any woman step to her man...whether it's a part of that woman's job description or not. Page Six sources claim Foster was upset when she found out stunning singer/songwriter Keri Hilson was personally picked by Usher to play his love interest in the video. "It was supposed to be a sexy video shoot," our spy said. "And Tameka was there the entire time guarding like a watchdog. It was ridiculous - she knows Keri and knows she's no video ho or Karrine Steffans." Steffans, nicknamed "Superhead," wrote the book, Confessions of a Video Vixen," about her alleged flings with Usher and several other artists.

"Tameka is very insecure. Even in rehearsals she was weird and clearly not happy that Keri is so gorgeous. Tameka threw a lot of attitude. The day of the shoot, Tameka dressed Keri very badly - she looked like an extra. Tameka wouldn't let Keri have her hairdresser there - she had to use the hairdresser who was doing the extras." Foster also took a dislike to Usher's longtime choreographer, Jamaica, and banned her from the set. When Usher and Foster were spotted at the Beverly Hills Hotel last week, they barely said one word to each other. The two have had a choppy past. After they got engaged, Usher fired his mom, Jonetta Patton, as his manager and also axed his publicists. "Tameka was the one and only one to call the shots," spies said.

They were supposed to wed last summer at L.A. Reid's Hamptons estate - but the wedding was called off at the last minute. They wed a week later in Atlanta, and Foster gave birth to their son, Usher Raymond V, in November. Usher's album, which may be called "Regret," was supposed to have come out last year but was delayed due to his wedding and baby. It is now expected by June. Usher's manager, Benny Medina, said via e-mail: "Keri could not have been happier with Tameka's choices in the styling, hair and makeup . . . Jamaica was flown out and arrived a day late to do Keri's choreography, and was on-set at all times. The shoot itself went brilliantly."
