It’s not bad enough that this singer dumped another singer off her tour. She had to kick him on the way out! Someone close to the decision explained the strategy:
Look, it was just a business decision. It’s not a coincidence that he was replaced by someone with the same management and the same publicist. It’s less work and more money for everyone to have two singers repped by the same people [on the same tour].
They knew there would be a problem with the messaging on [getting rid of the other singer] because firing someone doesn’t fit with her “perpetual victim who fights back bravely to become a role model” image. There was no way that she was going to look like the bad guy so her team leaked that it was all his fault and that he brought it upon himself and that he was a jerk who deserved to be fired. Sucks for him, especially because it’s not true, but that’s way it went. JSYK, it was her decision to fire him and it was her decision to make him look bad because she wanted to make herself look innocent.
What a lovely “role model.”
