Usher discusses marriage, new music projects

Atlanta R&B star Usher discussed his new marriage and upcoming music projects during a visit to Ellen DeGeneres' talk show. He's sort of light on details about either topic in this clip provided in advance to the AJC. Basically, yes he is married, to Grace Raymond, and at some point he'll have a new release:

"It's coming .. next year," he says. "Definitely next year."

Usher also plans to teach a master class where he'll motivate people to pursue their dreams. Details to come about when and where, presumably.
