Usher ex-wife wants $50k for child custody battle legal fees










Usher's ex-wife has asked for $50,000 to cover legal fees accrued by the custody battle for their two children.

Tameka Raymond, whose divorce from Usher was finalized in November 2009, requested $15,000 for her lawyer's fees plus $35,000 in other costs, according to TMZ.

The further costs reportedly are for hiring a private investigator, maintenance of expert witnesses, obtaining out-of-state testimonies and canceling her Saks 5th Avenue credit card.

The 40-year-old stylist is trying to strip the performer from having joint custody of Usher Raymond V, 4, and Naviviyd Eli, 3.

In December, she demanded that Usher take a drugs test because she was worried he was abusing substances around their children.

The R&B star filed for divorce in June 2009 after less than two years of marriage, claiming irreconcilable differences and that the couple hadn't lived together in their Atlanta home for a year.
