Booby Made Keyshia Fire Manny?


Word around these Internets is that Keyshia Cole and husband Booby Gibson are going through a rough patch because Keyshia is pissed off at how things have turned out ever since Booby made Keyshia fire Manny Halley...

Last January Keyshia Cole announced via Twitter that she and long time manager Manny Halley were parting ways and quoted some anonymous source who told her, 'if the people around you won't change, change the people around you [click here if you missed that].'

 Now we know that someone was Booby. 

According to Mouth to Ears Booby was jealous of Keyshia and Manny's close relationship and insisted she get rid of him. Keyshia is said to have gone through 8 managers since then.

With her career flailing Keyshia is headed back to reality TV in a desperate bid to revive her brand.

Not good to have your husband influence or be your manager. Call Melba Moore and ask her. She's before Keisha's time so she can Google her.

what kind of name is 'Booby?'

Keisha needs to stop trying to be a damn diva cause really she still has some dues to pay !!

She's a studio singer anyway. She sounds horrible live. In ten years no one will remember her.

I hope that's not the issue. You should never let someone intercept your success, especially if they are not in an position of expertise! Never shake up a winning formula! If that person is really riding with you it won't be an issue because they want to see you win baby win any way you can!

That's just stupid. If you were making money before he got there, why rock the boat. Jealousy has no place in my finances. If she isn't there throwing shade in his place of business why on earth would he hinder her? I won't speculate,but I will say that he may be overstepping his boundaries. Negro, that's my money you messin' with!

If this is true...she's a fool! Does he let her dictate what teams he should play for or who his agent should be? Then why the fk would she let him make this decision for her? Last time I checked Booby wasn't a management expert. Hell does he even have a bachelors degree?

I don't believe this story and the reasonw hy is because Kesh got the big head. She's been acting like her shit don't stink for about 2 years now. The reality show made her loads of money and she bounnced. I remember when she was down to earth, now you can't walk by the bitch without a stank look on her face. Her last album was trash and didn't produce one hit. Her song writers walked out on her when she left her manager on the show. She's a hot ghetto mess that couldn't really hit a high note without crack and fucking it all up. She should be happy that she had two hit albums, because her talent wasn't that strong. Now nobody cares about her bootleg looking ass.

I hope she doesn't end up trying so hard to please this guy and ends up being left with $30,000 in the bank with three kids and no business network base because of an inability to work effectively with others. He should support her and trust her...unless of course she and Manny actually had a thing going on...hmmm.

when she needs her fans the most she wont be able to find them because she ignored them. Her 20 mints is over. Never thought the biotch had that much talent.

Keyshia's face is pretty enough that she doesn't need all that mountain of weave on her head. These mountainous weaves, to me, seem like distractions from other flaws. I think she would just rock the hell out of a curly fro that shows her face and hairline, even moreso than Solange.

And I don't even know what the phrase "'if the people around you won't change, change the people around you" means! Seems kind of a self-serving statement to me...

Keyshia is beautiful and talented! Congrats Keyshia on
Your new reality show "Family First" I know that your fans will be interested
in knowing that your biological dad is alive! Your real dad is on Facebk. and his
name is Tyrone Thompson he did not abandon you nor did he turn his back on
You. He was not giving a chance or a choice in the matter at hand! He would like a chance to sit down with his youngest daughter. He looked for Frankie with
his child for 25+ yrs. keyshia you look so much like
Your biological dad. If you worked at KFC or B of A your
biological dad would have the same desire to want to see,talk and be a
part of his child's life. I hope that God will put this in
your heart to sit down with your dad. Much love to you Keyshia .

I don't know is Manny was gay or not, but I thought he was married and had a family and this thing with Keshia/him were strickly a brother/sister/manager relationship. He truly from what was seen on tv was helping her entire family.

Anonymous said...

I never thought too much of this couple, Keyshia was a star when she was heartbroken.

OPEN YOUR EYES said...

8 managers in a year? Damn, that shows she has a problem working with people.

Unless she plans on back to back reality shows with Neffie and Frankie she better rehire Manny... and next time don't let your husband's insecurities interfere in your career.

dumb chick.
Money is better than dick and Keishya he is a dick. Dude is all in your pocket and now it is empty. Sooner or later he is going to dump her for not providing the lofty lifestyle.

Keyshia got too big for her britches. She is only marginally talented the same way Ashanti is. Whoever gassed this b*tch up in the first place? She walking around looking like a diva and ain't had a hit since the one Missy gave her a few years back. She shouldn't mess with a formula that works and it was working for her. Manny was able to get this extra ghetto bootleg MJB some shine and this is the way she repays him? Ain't nobody checking for her.

Keyshia got lucky. That is how she got a career - pure luck. Fantasia and Jazmine Sullivan can sing circles around her without the extra large ego. Keyshia seems like she's been feeling herself too much lately and I need her to stop letting her husband mess with her business affairs.

She is a supreme bitch with whose attitude is unwarranted because she is not that talented. She sounds horrendous live. However, I read that Manny was supposedly stealing money from her and writing bad checks. If that's true, anybody with a brain would fire him. That doesn't change the fact that her attitude stinks though. I'm sure not all of those 8 managers were fired. Some of them probably quit after seeing how she is.

Anonymous said...

Worked with her on a fitting for a photoshoot back in 2010 and she was the biggest fucking CUNT I have ever worked with and I once styled Jill Scott!!

This girl's attitude just plain stinks and she treats her so-called people like shit. And she is NOT that talented - I saw her perform live at SOBs a few years ago and she is a straight studio singer. All the front of house mixing in the world cannot save her.

Whether Manny was stealing from her or not (I don't think he was that is just a rumor they put out there to justify his firing) she still can't keep a manager because a)she is not that talented and b)she thinks she knows every goddamn thing.

Boobie is a scrub but he can still make a few coins once he recovers from his injuries. He will probably need to go play overseas though which means BYE BYE MARRIAGE to that wicked bitch. He probably didn't want to marry her anyway but like a true hoodrat she got PREGNANT first.

The fact that her name is Keyshia should be clue number ONE that she's more than likely ghetto as heel. I hate ghetto names with a passion.

Before you know keyshia will be back In Oakland singing for her supper,while booby will still be a sit on your ass bench playa,perhaps he,ll be demoted i to jock strap scrubber! Here's to titties and his non singing one hit wonder with a diva attitude!

@2:33, u said a mouthful, u keep your husband (family) and work separate. Melba Moore husband left her broke and homeless. i miss Keysha Cole, she is the only one doing r & B music, everyone else is pop. get it together and come on back, don't wait to long.

Anonymous said...

You do not want to carry the blame of why a DIVA is no longer relevant...smh...!!, nothing about that sounds good. Keisha's ego is already on a thousands with not very many units sold worldwide so the last thing Booby needs is for that ego to be inflicted upon him concerning the demise of her career...UGh!! no ma'am. There is no way Booby would survive that, so im gonna go with:

ROFL @ 9:22! Well she does seem like a hardcore bitch! She has let that side slip out a little bit during interviews! She seems like the type that you would want to pop in the mouth for being a smart ass.

@8:24 & 11:06 Would you prefer a nice Anglo name like Sally, Sue or Melissa? You're ignorant as hell, for real. You probably have a mountain of weave in your head, too. Nothing is more ghetto than weave.

Worry about what you name your child and not about the name's of strangers.

My birth name is quite 'normal,' but I felt the need to comment on your ignorance just the same.

For those of you who aren't aware, there is a video on YouTube called PLAYTIME IS OVER. You all need to watch and share it. Icki Garbage is a stealing ass, certifiable, schizophrenic, obsessed bitch. People need to get off Kimmy's back and leave her the hell alone. She's a really sweet person and doesn't deserve the ill treatment she's been receiving. Mental illness is a disease and should Not be unleashed into society to make records and the like. Icki Garbage needs to be in a padded cell somewhere under 24hr survielance.

Manny is working with a "new devil" aka Nicki Minaj aka YM' personal slut bucket. Keyshia made alot of mistakes in the industry. Her main mistake was thinking she was gonna fill Mary's shoes (big mistake). Another mistake she made was disrespecting her little bit of fans she had. But her biggest mistake & EPIC FAIL was running over to that devil, plastic dick sucking, coke sniffing, clone bitch Nicki Minaj for a dis record. Mind you this is the same bitch that helped her career FLOP. Now look where Manny is..... Dumb bitch, her career is done.

Anonymous said...

I saw all 5 videos. Nikki is a straight swagger jacker. From stealing Kim's weaved looks, to outfits, to stealing her verses.

#TEAMKIMMY too all day!!!!!

Keysha is a dumb bitch! I hate her nasty attitude. There's a reason why she, Brandy and Monica fell off. All of them have the worst attitudes and treat their fans like shit. I've seen all three broads screw face any fan that came up to them.

I haven't bought a Keyshia Cole cd since the second one. I do enjoy her music but she has fallen off lately. I suspect she does have a bit of a nasty attitude but look at her family.....DAMN!!! If Frankie's crazy ass was my mother and Neffe's crying, pathetic baby-making ass was my sister I'd probaby act the same way.

I call BS on this - there were reports last year that the reason they split was because Manny was taking $$ for gigs & endorsements in Keyshia's name without her knowledge or approval. Manny was also let go by Tank for the same reason.

When your manager has been there and help make you, you don't get rid of them. These stupid women never learn, you don't mix business with pleasure. Alicia Keys had to go and beg her manager to come back. You never let your husband or your man manage you. Booby should focus on playing ball and leave Keisha to do her thang and sang. I can't believe how dumb she is for listening to that fool.

I can understand her respecting her husbands wishes and putting him first at the same time this is who you were before you meet him if he can't except who you are. Maybe it's best to let him go I know she's all for love but sometimes the ones closet beside you be the ones that hurt and do you over the most. Manny was there when there was no man now you have a man a child and now marriage you end what allow you to become you that wack and backwards on so many levels. I love Keyshia's music just don't let the ones closet to you define who you are at the end of the day. Hold your ground and don't lose who you are in the end because if the one you loving doesn't love you for who you are than who are they loving a figment of their own imagination of have they would like to perceive you which is wrong. Raise that baby do your music the best you know how to do it and get your muthafuckin' money girl love and peace and always believe in the one who created you first and foremost!
