How She's Destroying Her Career

10/14/2007 5:10 PM ET | Filed under: Anglophilia • Joss Stone

We're not the only ones that think Joss Stone is a twat.

The British soul singer has gone through four managers in the last five years. She's fired them all.

And, now, two of them are speaking out on the record about everything Joss is doing wrong.

""She's a lovely girl, as sweet as can be, attractive and enormously talented, but when it comes to her career she's convinced she's right and everyone else over 30 is wrong."

Of course, Joss, now 20, is hardly the first young person convinced that she knows best and inclined to dismiss the opinions of her elders. Indeed, in that respect, she is typical of her age group."

Everything is normal…

After her embarrassment at the Brit Awards earlier this year, she effectivly ended her career in the UK.

She released her album a couple of weeks later and it flopped miserably. Failing to sell 200,000 copies. After her first couple of albums both sold over a million, that's a bit of a comedown!

I adore Joss but this is sad. And for those who compare Joss to Christina–there is no comparison. They sing two completely different types of music.

Yeaaaaah.

love her first 2 CDs, 3rd not so much.
guess success has gotten to her.
truly can hold her own onstage w/ melissa etheridge and at the diva's concert.
(by the way, whatever happened to the diva's concert???)
get a manager to deal with the bullshit, then she can be a true "artiste".
based on the article, seems like she's a british kelly clarkson.
blabla says – reply to this

52

"We discussed her musical direction constantly but our differences were philosophical. She wanted to be more in control of her music but the truth is that most women of her age may not have the best idea of what is best for their career." These managers are sexist.. no wonder Stone fired them.

Joss Stone is so lame, everyone in her hometown hates her and everyone in england hates her now too for becoming a fake american and thinking she's a big soul diva when she's just a little english girl who had a good voice and was ruined by too much money and too many compliments from ppl in the record industry who just want to sponge off her

Re: AMERICAN – I'm pretty sure she had 2 record albums in the states before Amy Winehouse. Mhmmm. I'm sure her music came to America first.

And, I'm America. There are MANY excellent white blues singers. Blues is not about race. Its about emotion–raw emotion, pain and struggle.

The Mail? Are you serious? Thats like the enquirer for cryin out loud! This girl can sing. She's only 20, who else is singing like her at that age. By the way, the English were paying black blues musicians to perform in London when the americans wouldn't share a bus ride with them. Where did the 60's English blues music invasion of america stem from? (Stones, Zeppelin, Cream, Mayall etc.) In fact, Cream was credited with saving Blues as an art form in 60's america. Read your music history and stop making assumptions.

joss stone is a sweetheart in person. i met her at the mmva's (that's the canadian version of the mtv music awards) in toronto this summer. at the end of the night, she was slouched over on a couch half sleeping just outside the gifts' room and even though she looked super tired and beat, she was still so nice, she smiled and waved goodnight to everyone that passed by her. she's also very polite

Joss rules. I saw her a few weeks ago in concert… and hey as long as its not HER mom managing (ahem La Lohan, Panatierre, etc) then Im pretty sure shes going to be just fine.

Perez I used to hate you and think you were a complete shit just trying to cause trouble. But now I see you are totally on the money.
Since coming here I've noticed you hate all the same celebs that I do (and like pretty much the same)

Her, avril, beyonce, keira, claire danes etc etc. They are all idiots and no one else I know seems to share the same opinion. If they do, at least none of them seem to hate all of them.
It's very interesting the people you decide to "hate on" and the reasons you choose…

….you are maybe more level headed than people think. Well done Perez.
Although to be fair that asswipe never had a career to start with

Whatever, I have all three of her albums and the third is by far the best, its the first one that sounds like it wasn't just designed for MTV or billboard. And maybe she wants to be a real artist and not some Britney wannabe who just wants fame. Give her a break, she's one of the only female artists out there right now that actually has talent. England has totally got it covered now and America needs to learn to find some real talent unlike our Britney Spears, Avrils that have no real music credibility.

As usual Perez shows how fucking LITTLE he knows about the music business. Without going into a lot of detail, I've been a professional working musician for going on 20 years. I applaud people like Joss Stone and Kelly Clarkson for showing some integrity when it comes to their music. Note…the key words there were "THEIR MUSIC". The labels and management these people are with care about one thing. MONEY! And that would be the money that goes in their pocket! I think it's great that FINALLY some mainstream artists are taking control of their own careers.

And why is it if a female musician/singer fucks a few people asses like Perez act like it's the worst thing to ever happen. For Christ sake Perez….you praise Amy Whinehouse and she's a god damn junky! To be blunt……….you don't know dick about the music business! Most of the major labels cast these singers off as soon as they're done with them (which means they're not lining the pockets of some asshole record exec. who wouldn't know quality music if it bit them in the ass). And don't even get me started about the fucking sham that the Billboard Chart system is. That thing has about as much integrity as the Grammy's.

Just go back to writing endless blog entries about Britney and how much you'd like to share a glory hole with David Beckham!

I don't know anyone on earth who thinks she has a good voice except her publicist and the stupid media. Nobody I know listens to her, likes her or thinks she talented. Her voice is a scratchy whiny bong-soaked screech. Shame on anyone for comparing her to St. Aretha.

Re: d –

uh. she is not like a British Kelly Clarkson.
For a start she is nowhere NEAR Kelly Clarkson in talent or fame. (and I don't even like KC)
She doesn't even register on most people's radar.
She is someone that the people on talk shows and morning tv like to talk about but no one really likes them. I am interested to know just who bought all her albums

Re: Scott –
Re: blabla –

What they are saying is that she is a SINGER.
That's it.
She doesn't know enough about the business or the world to know what she needs to do, the sacrifices she needs to make and the hard decisions.
That's what you have managers and the rest of them for.
She didn't make it into the biz on her own and she won't be able to continue on her own. They are correct in that it takes far more than a good voice.
If that was the case there are plenty of people who would be rich and famous.
She sings about as well as my cat when you stand on it's tail.
There are people out there 40x as talented as her who will never get the chance to make it so she needs to get on with it doing what they say and wait until she is mega rich and knows enough like everyone else in music had to do until they could get total freedom and people bending over backwards to let her do exactly what she wants, or she could go the fuck home
