Usher has re-hired his mother just over a year after he fired her.
The 'Love In This Club' singer - who ditched his manager mom Jonetta Patton in May 2007 - has now employed her for a second time in a bid to kickstart the success of his latest record 'Here I Stand'.
The pair released a statement saying: "Usher has dissolved his management arrangement with Benny Medina and has re-engaged Jonetta Patton as his manager."
Usher's decision to get rid of Jonetta last year was reportedly due to a rift between Jonetta and Usher's wife Tameka Foster.
At the time, Usher said: "This is great for me because it means I now get to have my mother strictly as my mother, with no added pressure."
However, executives at Usher's label, Jive Records, were said to be concerned about Jonetta's sacking.
A source said: "They think Jonetta's done an incredible job with his career."
