Broadcast legend Larry King has released a new memoir called “Truth Be Told” (Weinstein Books). 
 Here is what he has to say about Usher:

 “Anybody who was at Michael Jackson’s memorial service will never forget Usher singing ‘Gone Too Soon.’ The thing most people don’t know about Usher is that this guy really knows his politics.”

Le légendaire Larry King (présentateur du Larry King Show sur CNN) vient de sortir ses mémoires et voici ce qu'il y dit à propos de Usher : 

"Toutes les personnes qui étaient à la messe de Michael Jackson n'oublierons jamais le moment où Usher a chanté "Gone too soon". Il a une chose que la plupart des gens ne savent pas sur Usher: C'est une personne qui s'y connaît très bien en politique"

Interview: In mentoring singers, Usher knows of what he speaks

He was a teen sensation who made it out with sanity intact. So who better than Usher to become a tutor to the young and famous?

At 32, the R&B star is clearly relishing his role as mentor to young artists such as Justin Bieber, whose elastic voice and girl-wowing ways make for easy comparisons to Usher’s early years. Bieber got his mainstream break at the hands of Usher, who has remained a steady guide and sounding board for the young Canadian singer. The two most recently performed together at the Grammys earlier this year.

The father of two is back on the road supporting his album “Raymond v. Raymond” and its companion set, “Versus,” which have provided a raw window into his personal life, including 2009’s much-publicized divorce from stylist Tameka Foster. Album reviews were mixed, but concert reviews have been strong for Usher, who made his name in the mid-’90s with moves as smooth as his voice and sensual songs that made him one of the era’s leading musical heartthrobs.

“I only focus on the positive,” he says. “The negative is only a deterrent from my purpose. My purpose is to make sure people understand that what I’m offering is pure and from my own experiences.”

His return to the touring life has put him in a philosophical mood, happy to impart some hard-earned wisdom to the world.

Question: You’ve been all over the place lately, and you seem pretty happy being back in this sort of groove, back where the action is nonstop.

Usher: Absolutely. It’s the kind of lifestyle that one could grow accustomed to. (Laughs) As a youth, traveling the world, I never really got a chance to enjoy it —I was always moving in circles. I looked at it like: I need to make sure I build relationships, make sure people understood why I’m here, why I’m doing what I’m doing. I was acquiring the success, but not really enjoying it.

This time, I’m actually able to sit back and just enjoy it. It’s the first time I’ve been able to just sit in a room, do my interviews, prepare for my show, do my show, go do an afterparty, get on a bus, go to the next state, then chill out a little bit. And it makes it even better when you have children, because I have that time when I’m just in their rooms, relaxing, just being with my kids.

So I couldn’t ask for a better situation, a better setup. Or really, even just to be fortunate enough to do this again, you know. I’ve been around these parts a few times. I’ve been doing this for 18 years, so I’ve learned how to utilize these moments to the best of my ability, because there was a time when I didn’t.
