Is Usher a born again Christian? He's apparently hanging out with Rick Warren

Rick Warren posted a picture of him with Usher on his twitter account talking about how he would draw in the crowds... anyone know the background on this?

2. I wouldn't know either one of them if I fell over them.

I'm confused. I always think of Usher as some guy who kinda looked and sounded like Michael Jackson in the 1980's.

edit- I was thinking of Rockwell

3. Pretty creepy the way Warren's tongue is slipping out...

...then again, he'd be creepy with his mouth shut.

5. There is no mention of religion on his wikipedia article (that I can see) but he has said anti-gay

stuff in the past...

"It can never be bad to have a foundation as a man�a black man�in a time when women are dying for men," he says. "Women have started to become lovers of each other as a result of not having enough men. Are you not studying the stories? Wake up! Black love is a good thing."

Regardless I like his music. Im just hoping he's not getting caught up with the wrong side of equality...
