Lona Delery 7,216 Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 Recently, Marina got a new manager, leaving fans wondering what happened to her old manager Jess Keeley. She now published the following piece: "As an artist manager I was recently fired by a client while on maternity leave. I’m unfortunately very familiar with this feeling: I have two children, and this has happened to me exactly twice." "You are holding a newborn and receive word that your artist needs to “have a chat”. They give reasons which are unrelated to your new baby, but the timing is too specific. It’s hurtful, incredibly stressful and unfortunately predictable. And the part that really stings? In my case, both of the artists in question are women." "I once made the decision to take my two-week-old newborn to an artist’s concert, bundled in his car seat backstage, his little ears covered by oversized headphones. With my limbs still aching from giving birth 14 days previously I showed up and declared of course I was fit to be standing here at this open air venue for three hours – because that is what is expected and what it takes to be a manager. Ultimately, the artist/manager relationship is based on a trust which tends to flow in only one direction." https://www.musicbusinessworldwide.com/i-was-recently-fired-by-a-client-while-on-maternity-leave-its-happened-to-me-exactly-twice/ Thoughts? Is Marina the artist in question? Sometimes it feels like I've got a war in my mind, I wanna get off but I keep riding the ride Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JRCF29 8,219 Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 what is "shile"? Just because you're fired on maternity leave doesn't mean that's why you were fired. If it is Marina she deserves to tell her side also Don't Call Me Gaga Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CautiousLurker 19,476 Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 I mean, it sucks for sure, but to play the devil's advocate for a bit - maternity leave takes a while, what if you grow close to a person who's replacing the former - in that case, I can't really fault the client for wanting to hire them instead - this might be naive thinking but I can see this scenario taking place It's a joke! When you give me that look, it's a joke! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosalina 612 Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 As a Marina stan, I’m really disappointed in her. Especially because she’s always talking about female empowerment. Practice what you preach, sis Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daylight Jokers 14,958 Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 So we're not sure if she's talking about Marina anyway? But if this is really her, and she fired her manager for 'that' reason, then I'm very disappointed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
InstantDejavu 571 Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 This happens on regular jobs as well sadly. Some bosses think woman can't work after giving birth which is troubling. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Addison Rae 16,901 Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 All we know is that she was pregnant when she was fired. We don’t know what their working relationship was like, we don’t know what went down for Marina to fire her and we don’t even know if it’s actually Marina. Sounds like the manager is bitter and is using her pregnancy and OLD issues to try and paint the artist in question in a bad light. Whenever someone wants to make a point in a situation like this and they know they’re being petty, they’ll use previous scenarios to make it out like they’re innocent. Throwback to when Mariah fired S*ella (a lady who has become infamous with lambs for being a complete leech) and that hag did everything she could to bring Mariah down. sitting on his lap sipping diet pepsi Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
