How J-Lo can you go?
First her crappy catsuit gets a big thumbs down in the blogiverse.
Now comes word that her new album Love, which was supposed to be released in early April, is postponed as she’s been dropped by her record label, Sony.
J-Lo’s first two singles from the upcoming disc Fresh Out The Oven and Louboutins did ok on the dance charts, but failed to make much of an impact, getting a “meh” reception.
Her manager went into full spin mode, saying “Jennifer had a wonderful relationship with the Sony Music group, and they have shared many successes together, but the time was right to make a change that best serves the direction her career as an actress and recording artist. She is grateful and appreciative to everyone Sony for all that they accomplished together”.
J-lo’s spokesminion says she’s currently begging and pleading in negotiations with a different label, so don’t cross Love off your 2010 CD list just yet.
J-Lo is one of those artists that started at the top with her first release which can be a mixed blessing. On The 6 was a huge hit when it was released almost 11 years ago, but since then each subsequent album seems to get a colder reception from the music listening public.
If that wasn’t enough of an ego bruiser, her new movie The Back-Up Plan, has been pushed back to April 23rd as the April 16th date became “too crowded“.
Well, at least J-Lo still has her Saturday Night Live coming up this weekend as both host and musical guest (with a non-existent album to promote and a delayed movie to shill). Wonder if they’ll write these developments into her monolgue or a skit?
