Usher Raymond VI, anyone?

Usher (Raymond IV) is expecting his second child with wife Tameka Foster, according to several reports.

The couple are also the proud parents of 9-month-old Usher Raymond V.

The little tyke's namesake swapped vows with Foster twice last year, the first time Aug. 3, 2007, in a private civil ceremony in Atlanta, and again the following month as part of a more elaborate affair at the Chateau Elan Winery & Resort, also in Atlanta.

Looks like Usher's the last man standing.

The R&B megastar might not have duplicated the seven-figure sales debut of Confessions, but the follow-up Here I Stand dominated the album charts, selling 443,000 copies for the week that ended Sunday, per Nielsen SoundScan numbers.

Here I Stand easily finished at No. 1 despite a strong debut by the Fergie- and Jennifer Hudson-powered Sex and the City soundtrack. Usher's album also topped the charts in Canada, Australia and the U.K.

A minor-league blog might be saying "yeah," but Usher's people are saying "absolutely not."

The R&B star's manager calls an anonymously sourced breakup report on the website theybf.com "100 percent not true."

"Usher and Tameka are currently traveling in Europe together as a family on his promotional tour," Benny Medina told E! News. "This rumor is completely false."

Not to mention, Tameka—who's also the mother of 6-month-old Usher Raymond V—was spotted with her hubby of nearly nine months at an MTV taping on Sunday.

But, if nothing else, with Usher's marital life squared away, that leaves his fans free to talk about that upcoming album release on Tuesday, eh?

The "Yeah" singer is saying hell no when it comes to selling pictures of his baby son.

"In no way would I ever pimp out my child for money," Usher tells the New York Post about rumors he was trying to go the fast-cash route à la Brangelina, J.Lo, Christina Aguilera and Nicole Richie.

And just to prove the little tyke isn't helping line his wallet, the R&B star posed for free with his offspring for an Essence magazine Father's Day cover.

"I am livid that people talk about my child," adds the proud papa. "What makes you a man more than being a father to your child?"

You tell 'em, Usher.

Of course, we'll just overlook all the free publicity the magazine shoot will generate to promote your upcoming album. That makes your outrage sound sooo much better.
