Even Usher gets hit by the economy

Usher closes down his bar The Grape in Atlanta because of the economy. The R&B singer had great expectations for his Atlanta bar  The Grape back in 2006 and even wanted to go global with it.

Usher opened the bar back in 2006 in his hometown Atlanta, but the wine house failed to re-open after New Year’s. Apparently the parent company is going out of business.

“Grape Enterprise Group, has also filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy.”

Other stars have not been successful with hospitality business like Jennifer Lopez who closed Madre her Los Angeles restaurant last year.

It looks like the hard times are for everyone including rich and powerful celebrities like Usher. We hope everything goes back to normal soon.
