Usher Sacks Manager

07 August 2008

Usher has reportedly sacked his manager and rehired his mother.

Usher's record label released a statement announcing the fact, saying he "has dissolved his management arrangement with Benny Mendina and has re-engaged Jonnetta Patton as his manager." Patton was Usher's manager up until May 2007 when he hired Mendina to work on the release of his current album 'Here I Stand'.

The 'Love In This Club' singer has apparently also parted ways with his PR company W&W Public Relations.
