<P><MTVNLINK type="artist" id="1270">Usher</MTVNLINK>'s stepson, 11-year-old Kile Glover, remains in the hospital after suffering a traumatic head injury during a jet-ski accident last weekend. Glover, the son of Usher's ex-wife Tameka Foster, was pronounced brain dead on Sunday, but his family has issued a statement, saying that they are keeping positive thoughts and asking for prayers.</P><P>"We know God's in control, and are leaning on our faith in Him and His word at this most difficult time," the family told CNN in a statement. "We firmly believe in the power of prayer and ask that you all continue to pray and lift Kile up, as it's the best way we can all support him now."</P><P>According to CNN, Glover's family has already held a vigil for him at the hospital, and Usher visited the 11-year-old the morning after he was admitted to the hospital. The two had reportedly grown close during the R&B singer's two-year marriage to Foster.</P><P>The accident took place on Friday (July 6) when Glover and a second victim, a 15-year-old girl, were struck by a jet-ski while floating on an inner tube in Atlanta's Lake Lanier. Both children were airlifted to the Children's Healthcare of Atlanta at Egleston pediatric hospital. The girl is reported to have suffered from a cut on the head and a broken arm, while Glover took the brunt of the trauma to his head.</P><P>The man driving the jet ski has been identified as 38-year-old Jeffrey S. Hubbard, a family friend. At this time the police have determined that no drugs were involved, and no charges are being pressed. On Sunday TMZ reported that Glover was declared brain dead when doctors determined that he had not experienced any brain activity since he was admitted to the hospital on Friday.</P><P>Friends of Usher and his ex-wife have sent their well-wishes to the family via Twitter. "Wishing @TamekaRaymond's son godspeed recovery. horrible news to hear," Roots drummer Questlove tweeted, while Jermaine Dupri added, "Lifers! pls say a prayer for man Ryan, Tameka, Usher and the Glover family."</P>

Emma Bunton Covers Easy Living October 2012

Not long after rocking the stage at the 2012 London Olympics Closing Ceremonies with her "Spice Girls" band mates, Emma Bunton found herself gracing the October 2012 issue of Easy Living!

On her diet:
"I avoid carbs in the evening mid-week - but not at the weekend - and I try to exercise with the kids, by walking and going for bike rides. I'm not too strict about anything. Life's too short! I love having friends round, enjoying a glass of wine or sharing pizza. I really love food."

On her partner, Jade, of 15 years:
"We are great friends who still fancy eachother, who take the mickey out of eachother and who talk about everything - we never let anything fester. It's easy to be complacent, especially when you have children, but Jade always says he finds me attractive, and he tells me he loves me every day."

On working with Victoria Beckham:
"You know, I love Victoria and she's brilliant fun, I love her to bits. She is one of the funniest women I know. She makes me howl with laughter. And she's got a great pout. If I could pout like that, I would!"

Clint Eastwood Defends ?Empty Chair? RNC Speech

He made quite an impression at last week?s Republican National Convention, and Clint Eastwood is still standing by the speech he delivered.

Though he admitted his remarks were ?very unorthodox,? the ?Dirty Harry? hunk maintained that he made his point very clearly.

Eastwood also indicated the idea for the notorious ?empty chair? speech was a last-minute decision, one he made only minutes before coming on stage when he spotted a stool which someone kept asking him to sit in.

The 82 year-old actor and director said, "?When I saw the stool sitting there, it gave me the idea. I?ll just put the stool out there and I?ll talk to Mr. Obama and ask him why he didn?t keep all of the promises he made to everybody.?

?President Obama is the greatest hoax ever perpetrated on the American people. Romney and Ryan would do a much better job running the country, and that?s what everybody needs to know," he added.
