I love this forum, but how do you know- I mean really know that this is a replacement?
It probably is!.
The first pic was taken without touching up done afterward. The second pic was 'glammed-up' for a publicity shot- anyone with a few months experience on photoshop could tell you that.
No disrespect, but such things as lighting, camera- digital vs 35 mm, camera lens attachments can all 'alter' the look of a person. I haven't read yet anywhere on this forum where that's taken into account.
You gotta compare like with like, otherwise it cheapens the argument.
(I did too many years at Art College).

Oh I wasn't even going by the photos. I was using the cover of the album as the marker time of the replacement. I know, some argue with this, but I feel that those mysterious illuminated ones leave us clues to indicate when a replacement has taken place. Such was the case, I believe, in the emergence of the new, younger and inexplicably talentless Lionel Richie… And Halle Berry (star of The Program, The Surrogate, Robots, Who is Doris Payne? Things We Lost in the Fire, Perfect Stranger, Die Another Day, They Came from Outer Space and Living Dolls) It’s as if the old version is fading as the new is coming into focus. Multiple images are also indicators/codes, but not exclusive ones There are indicators that seem to be pointing to cloning and even artificial life (I.e. androids, cybernetic organisms) And what’s going on with Christina? But the point I’m making is that I wasn’t using the airbrushed vs. natural photo of Usher to indicate that the change in appearance indicates he’s been replaced or copied. It’s just that the polished, airbrushed pic came about after the duel-image album cover clue/indicator. So this guy is most-likely the new version of Usher that we’ll be seeing for a while.

The first Usher seems to have a shorter eye distance. But I think more comparisons are needed, although that may be hard because there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of early pics of Usher on the net.

Usher did seem to disappear off the musical radar for a few years which always raises alarm bells. Another who may require further investigation is Nelly, for the same reason.

great post!! you are absolutlly on point!! i thought i was the only one that noticed the replacement halle. she is no where near as pretty. although i dont think she is a permanent replacement. last i heard the real halle was in south africa filming a movie. they are probably using this fake halle in pics in the media just to keep her relavent till her movie comes out.
but as far as usher, i did notice that he just doesnt seem as talented as before. theres something thats not quite right in his performaces. if he is a replacement, its a damn good look alike though. also, another recent replacement is 50 Cent. remember, they had him all over the net saying "he had lost weight". which really means "he has been replaced with someone skinnier than him". also the fake 50 looks nothing like the real one. he's a really bad replacement.

Wasn't it in the media not to long ago, that FiftyCents has his tattoos removed. First of all, it's more painful than getting them and secondly - Come on! the replacement didn't want to get those tattoos (not a strong enough control program going on there in this case <G>?) It's just a bit odd, right? And was it Usher who's mother died while getting some sort of cosmetic surgery? I'm not clear on that and can't research right now. Maybe the original Usher was threatened and who knows what happened? Ten theories could all have a hint of truth to them, huh?
