Only weeks after Kelly Clarkson told People that her record label RCA wanted to “Lindsay-ize” the singer, the pop princess has unexpectedly dumped her long-time manager, Jeff Kwatinetz.

Rumors have circulated that the firing was a result of how Kwatinetz handled the recent feud between Clarkson and RCA chief Clive Davis over her new album, “My December.”

Clarkson’s manager "exacerbated a thermonuclear situation," a source close to the situation told Entertainment Weekly.

From the Glitz of Vegas to the Ritz of Maui

Living in Las Vegas, everyday is a vacation: a chaotic, wild, all-night, strobe-lit, party-until-the-sun-comes-up vacation. And I'm in the middle of it all 24/7.

So when it came time for me to pick a spot for MY vacation, I wanted to get away to the most relaxing place on Earth. I longed for a place where the thumping bass and the slot-machine-bings of the Vegas Strip would be a distant memory... a place where screaming crowds were non-existent… and a place that I didn't have to spend three hours standing in line at a foreign customs department to get into.

Well, I found that place, and if you promise to keep this between you and me, I'll tell you all about it.

Maui.
