Jennifer Lopez confirmed yesterday that she had split (re: was dumped) from music label Sony after ten years collaborating together. The Daily Mail quoted her as saying,

“I have belonged to the Sony family since the beginning of my career as a singer and together we’ve had great success.

I have fulfilled my contractual responsibilities with Sony/Epic up to this point, and we have both reached friendly terms about my departure from the label.

I’m also happy to say that we’ve found a new home for my album Love and that it is slated for release in the summer of 2010.”

While neither Sony nor Lopez gave the reason for the split, rumor has it that Sony dropped her on her big fat ass after her last two singles tanked:

Her two recent singles, Louboutins and Fresh Out Of The Oven, were flops on the U.S. Billboard singles chart and Sony were not willing to take a gamble on her Love album, [fearing it] would be a flop.

Sorry, but your fifteen minutes are long past up, JLo. You’re talentless, you’re obsolete, you’re fat, and nobody likes you. See Jessica Simpson for details.

Jessica Simpson finds herself even further down the spiral after being dropped by Sony Music. According to OK! Magazine

A staffer for Columbia Nashville, the division of Sony Music… responsible for releasing Jessica’s most recent album, told us that Jessica Simpson has now “come off the label.”

Her latest single, Pray Out Loud, has failed to chart, [and] her winter tour supporting Rascal Flatts has been something of a rocky one, with several shows having been marked by fumbled songs, do overs and booing crowds.

Jessica’s rep tells OK! that she “is and has always been an Epic artist. She was on loan to Sony Nashville for her country album. She continues to be on Epic’s label.”

Geez. The only thing that’s ever crashed and burned faster than Jessica Simpson’s career wound up scrap metal at the bottom of the Florida Everglades. Desperate times call for desperate measures, people. And by “desperate measures” I of course mean “sex tape.” It’s really the only shot she’s got left.
