What did Usher REALLY say about Kanye?

More on Usher and the Kanye West George Bush incident: It was recently reported by the media that Usher defamed Kanye West's criticsm of George W. Bush's "caring for black people".

But this is what the R&B idol said according to the BBC: "Contrary to false media reports, I support the personal opinions made by my friend Kanye West.

"If it wasn't for his comments, there would not be an open dialogue about the underserved people in the Gulf Region.”

He continued: “Our country is in a state of emergency - instead of the media trying to turn celebrities against one other - we should all come together as one and support the victims of this devastating tragedy."
