Kelly Rowland is under new management, according to Destinyschildrumours blog!
The former Destiny’s child singer, who recently parted ways with her longtime manager Matthew Knowles, has reportedly signed a new contract with artist manager Jeff Rabhan.
In addition to managing music mogul JD’s career, Rabhan formerly managed singer Kelis whose career has been sidelined while she deals with personal issues.
In a recent interview about the music industry’s dire financial straits, Rabhan said:
“Sales are so down and so off that, as a manager, I look at a CD as part of the marketing of an artist, more than an income stream… It’s the vehicle that drives the tour, the merchandise, building the brand, and that’s it. There’s no money.” [link]
This may or may not be a good sign for Kelly who can’t really count on a tour to rake in the big bucks. We’ll see what other career moves Rabhan has in store for Kelly who currently co-hosts TV series The Fashion Show with fashion Demigod Isaac Mizrahi on Bravo Network.
Thanks to Danielle over at Destinyschildrumours for the info!
Kelly is a moron, how is she hiring Kelis’ manager. Kelis is the artist who had the looks and the talent who never quite blew up the way she should have. Sounds like Kelly will remain in the exact position she is in now.
Yeeeeeah
*pops the top off a pepsi can and lets the foam spill over*
“drink, be merry WELCOME to the Chyna club, ah ching a chong chong, ah chingah chang chang”….
“its a celebraTION BYTCHES”
Hey Kelly UPS is hiring…once that destinys child money run out (which shouldnt be for awhile) she gonna be hurting…. but isnt she more popular in UK?
If the few times I saw Kelly live is an indication of what her tour will be like. I’ll pass. She needs to stick to acting. She was great in I still know what you did last summer & she was good on girlfriends.
Never thought about it but she is a better actress than Bey.
As long as JD is not behind it, we know what happened with Janet’s career. LOL. Good for Kelly.
Kelly is talented but who would actually go pay to see Kelly in concert..? I mean seriously (In my Kyle voice from EBT College Hill). She should just stay in London b/c I know they like fallen off has-been stars!!!
Kelly can sing better than Kelis. Kelis is another Rihanna as far as singing goes..lol They both have their own lanes and do them but neither is the best singer.
That is a FAB pic of Kelly!
@Anna JD and MC make magic together!

Ontaya has the same avatar pic as yours!
Poor Kelly. I keep telling that girl to start a new group. Why ain’t she listening? She is not a solo artist.
I don’t know about this one Kelly. I don’t think I’d want anyone managing me who was managing Kelis because ummmm where is she? She should’ve hooked up with Manny (if KC would let him) or heck even Ushers mom.
Daisy – JD is slept of talent wise. In addition to MC he also has created that magic with Usher. He and Janet wasn’t meant to make music together but JD is talented.
I think Kelis is talented, she’s just a talent that never was quite developed properly. I’ve liked her sine she first came out. She just will never get the proper shine.
Dayum .. WHY Does JD look like the Travelosity Gnome ? ?
Who gives a fuck about kelendria flopland

@Shauny I agree and let us not forget he was behind those HOT JE songs as well back in the day. I like JD! I am a LIFER!..lol
Im a LIFER too!!!
i’m team kelly all the way , but i’m not sure about this move. i wish her the best though .
daisy i agree about jd & mc making those hits . i also agree with shauny about jd & janet . jd can throw down on a janet remix , but a regular song , I VOTE NO .
i love him and janet as a couple though .
good luck kelly! (lord knows u need some)
a jd post son!
with his lil ommpah loompah looking self. note to mr. mauldin…it is unwise to stand “shoulder to head” with folks of normal height. the top of his head meets right up to that man shoulder.
TRAGIC.
