Jennifer Lopez - Superstar No More!

The rumor mill is spinning that Epic Records and it’s parent company, Sony BMG, may be on the verge of dropping Jennifer Lopez because she is no longer profitable. Jennifer’s latest ablum, Brave, only sold 53,000 copies in it’s first week and currently sitting at #175 on Amazon’s sales chart. MSNBC has reported:

She costs too much money and doesn’t sell enough,” says the source, who is familiar with the issue. “Her last album cover alone cost $60,000 in hair and makeup, lighting, photographers, re-touching, etc. The video budget was in the neighborhood of $300,000.” And that’s just what it costs to get the album out the door. Lopez performed on “Good Morning America” earlier this month, and all the costs were absorbed by the label. “Epic had to eat the cost for that entire performance….The woman requires everything short of flying monkeys to get on a stage.”
