'Idol' Clarkson Fired Manager

Uh-oh, Kelly Clarkson is really self-destructing before our eyes. She went to war against music mogul Clive Davis about her latest album and now she has fired her manager. I think those guys wanted her to keep her lesbianism under wraps so she ditched 'em as a rebellion.

Here's what Page Six is reporting:

KELLY Clarkson - the "American Idol" winner who was at war with Sony BMG boss Clive Davis over artistic control of her third album - has fired her manager, The Firm's Jeff Kwatinetz. "Kelly has clearly seen the light," laughed a Davis crony. Clarkson, who's sold 11 million records, has insisted on writing all the songs on her third album and spurned the tunes by other composers which Davis, "the man with the golden ears," was offering her.

"Kwatinetz, a co-producer of Kelly's upcoming album, led her down the road of recording without the benefit of Clive Davis' magic and collaboration with hit-making songwriters," our source said.

"Clive was trying to stop her from jumping off a cliff." Kwatinetz, who treated Clarkson like "a little sister," was said by a pal to be "shocked." "She's not happy, and she can't fire Clive, so she fired Jeff," said the source.

A spokesperson for The Firm issued this statement: "Kelly Clarkson is an enormously talented artist, and we are pleased to have served as her managers in her well-deserved rise to stardom. We have only the best wishes and hopes for her in the future."

Musical Chicas

Word has it that Britney Spears has been calling (or her people have been) the razzi to tell them where she is headed for the day...'cause life wouldn't mean a thang if they weren't photographing her all the time. Of course, her camp denies this but don't star "camps" always deny crap like this? They've got to keep her in the light if she wants attention for her new album.

These were snapped as she tanned and shopped in Santa Monica. WTF are her kids? How about some Mommy-n-Me time? They are that young for long. Before she knows it, they'll have their own drug, alcohol & rehab problems to blame her for.

Kelly Clarkson was photographed at in the press room of "American Idol Gives Back" last night (April 25)...(big pic and then thumbnail next to the Brit pics).

These Avril Lavigne pics are standard size. She was snapped pimpin' her album in Tokyo. Um, nice outfit?

Clarkson On Fire

Kelly Clarkson is in Hawaii on vacation Somebody needs to reconsider their misuse or lack of use of sunscreen. Have she not heard of skin cancer?

Do you think she has run into Courntey Love while there? Or is Love too unrecognizable these days for Clarkson to pick her out.
