Hot Potato

[Blind Gossip] You hear about stars dropping their agent or manager or publicist all the time to go with someone they think can make them more successful.

However, when you hear about an agent or manager or publicist dropping their client like a hot potato, it’s almost always because the client has gotten out of control!

This male singer is very popular, is worth tens of millions of dollars, and has literally millions of followers on social media. You would think that anybody would be thrilled to represent him.

Nope.

He just got dropped – hard – by one of his longtime reps.

They just couldn’t deal with his drug use any more. Working with someone this self-destructive is both exhausting and untenable.

  2. Singer: Zayn…him and Sarah Stennent just ended their 3 year contract.

    [Optional: I mean what drugs could he possibly be doing beside smoking weed, that he’s “that hard” to work with. He doesn’t look like the type of person to do hard drugs though

  4. zayn
    yes because sometimes no matter how hard you try you need to let go when someone is refusing help or listening to you

  5. Zayn was just dropped by Sarah Stennett. Absolutely the right thing. This job is hard enough without someone who isn’t interested in their own success.

  10. Zayn was recently dropped by his management.

    The rep did do the right thing…well, if she exhausted all other avenues.

  12. Singer: Zayn (was just dropped by his Manager, Sarah Stennet, for literally doing nothing)

    [Optional] Did the rep do the right thing?: Yeah. You have to do what’s right for your in your life. If her livelyhood is based on promoting an artist, and the artist is not interested in promoting themselves, you have every right to drop them. His stans will go off about “mental health”, which is real, but she’s also gotta look out for herself.

  15. Singer: Zayn Malik

    [Optional] Did the rep do the right thing?: Yes. Just hope she tried to get him to get help first.

  21. Singer: Zain Malik

    It seems he’s gotten more and more out of control, ostracizing himself from friends and family. Now it’s affecting his professional life as no one wants to work with him.

  24. Singer: Zayn Malik

    She definitely did the right thing, he is going to burn himself out and he is not her responsibility
