R&B artist Usher says he doesn't want to push his children into the entertainment business although he does enjoy putting them on stage during tours.

The singer recently broke down in court as he gave evidence during a legal battle with his ex-wife over custody of their two sons.

Usher's new album is his seventh studio effort and called Looking 4 Myself. His 2004 album Confessions is currently the biggest selling album of the 21st century so far.

The singer was speaking to Newsbeat's entertainment reporter Natalie Jamieson.
