Jennifer Lopez Record Label Might Dump Her
Posted on October 30, 2007 at 6:49 pm (PST)
Jennifer Lopez has been costing Epic Records, and their parent company Sony BMG, a lot of money lately, so there is talk they might drop her from the label. A source said:
“She costs too much money and doesn’t sell enough. 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.â€
JLo’s make-up alone costs $8,000 per day. When she did Dancing with the Stars it cost the label $60,000. All this and yet her Album Brave, released October 9, only sold 53,000 copies, at an average profit for the label of $4 per CD, which means the label lost money. Another source says:
“Sony and Epic might keep her, but she’ll be doing little more than greatest hits albums. That you can do without incurring a huge cost. The label is tired of throwing money away.â€
Looks like Jenny from the block is going to have to do her own makeup, just like the girls from the block. Represent.
