Tameka Released – Usher Didn’t Know Wife Was Having Plastic Surgery!

Tameka Raymond, wife of R&B singer Usher, has been released from the Brazilian hospital where she’s spent the past 11 days recovering from a cardiac arrest.

According to the new issue of In Touch, Usher had no idea that wife Tameka had gone down to Brazil to have plastic surgery.

So imagine his shocke when, as he was departing for a rehearsal for Clive Davis‘ pre-Grammy party, he got the call telling him that his wife had gone into cardiac arrest while going under for lipo.

Usher immediately flew out to be at her side.

Ellen Dastry, a spokeswoman for the doctor who was to perform the plastic surgery, said last week that Raymond suffered a cardiac arrest while being anesthetized ahead of a “simple liposuction” at Sao Paulo’s Sao Rafael Hospital.

Raymond was revived in less than a minute with heart massage, and was placed in an induced coma before being taken to the intensive-care unit, said Dastry, spokeswoman for plastic surgeon Silvio Sterman.

She was then transferred to the posh and better-equipped Sirio-Libanes Hospital to recover.

Foster was released from the hospital – finally – on Monday.

No one knows for sure why Usher’s wife decided not to inform him of her surgical plans, whether it was intended as a special surprise or what.

The 30-year-old R&B star and his wife were married in August 2007. They have two young sons, 2-year-old Usher Raymond V and 2-month-old Naveid Ely Raymond.
