I hope this isn’t true. Rumor is American Idol’s 2nd season winner, Ruben Studdard was dropped from J Records today due to poor record sales of his last disc. If it is true, Ruben will be picked up by another label pronto. He is truly a talented brother who is deserving of all the accolades he has received.
Here’s an email I received from a loyal reader:
Hey Sandra,
I just wanted to let you know my brother tours as a background singer for Ruben Studdard and he was just informed today that Ruben was dropped by J Records. The sales were just too bad from his last album. He has only sold 234,000 copies.
Meanwhile, Ruben will return to host American Idol Rewind, in which he and runner-up Clay Aiken will bring back memories of Ruben’s historical 2nd season victory through behind the scenes video.
