Quote:
Selena Gomez hopes that her new management move will light up her career like a firework!
She fired her mom Mandy Teefy and stepdad Brian Teefey, who have managed her since childhood. Replacing her parents is Bradford Cobb, who manages Katy Perry and Adam Lambert.
Cobb, who was listed as one of Billboard's 40 executives under 40 in July 2013, has spent more than a decade in the industry making a name for himself, and was instrumental in making Katy Perry a pop superstar.
“For me, it’s really about the team,” Cobb told Billboard of his success. “Everyone [at Direct Management Group] works on all of the clients, and we build the right team for each artist.”
Gomez, who parted ways with her label Hollywood Records, seems ready to reinvent her career. Her 2013 album Stars Dance was her first number one on the Billboard 200, with hits "Come & Get It" and "Slow Down."

1st Bradford Cobb [& her new team Martin Kirkup, Steven Jensen] is an A-lister in the music world, amazing. For sure counted as 1 od THE best at what he does. And as he said the team is important more than everything. He is Billboard's execs Top 40 under 40 for a reason.
2nd Selena has the best team for her acting career, WME a management firm that works only with A-list actors = I Cant Wait for the stuff they can get her.
3rd working with Rihanna's hitmakers. I LOVE her music, so I guess after C&GI they obviously can work well with Selena too.
4th I think she gave HWR 1 more chance to prove their...flopselves, but I hope I'm wrong. Thats the last thing that needs to GO.
