After Selena Gomez's exit, Disney is headed for a cold spell
Quote:
Thanks to the blockbuster sales of Frozen and its beyond-ubiquitous hit “Let It Go,” Disney’s music division is on its hottest streak in years, with a 2.9 percent market share. The soundtrack’s whopping-for-these-days 3.5 million sales helped account for half of the label’s recorded-music earnings in 2014 so far -- a feat to cheer, no doubt, but what happens in 2015 when Elsa is on a screen sabbatical?
That’s the question on many Mouse watchers’ minds as Hollywood Records, Disney Music Group’s pop division, tries to arrange a new crop of stars to make up for the mainstays who have jumped ship. Selena Gomez, who’s headed to Interscope (a best-of album will be her final release on Hollywood in November). Meanwhile, sources tell Billboard that budding pop/R&B artist Zendaya is not quite leaving the label, but finalizing a joint venture with Hollywood and Republic Records that will be a first-of-its-kind deal between the two companies.

Billboard better recognize Hollywood Records' cash cow!

I spot no lies.
Star of the most watched Disney show & show with the most watched Disney finale of all time, Selena Gomez, is the TRUE Queen of Disney

R5, the pop-rock group fronted by 18-year-old Austin & Ally star Ross Lynch, has been touring in preparation for its 2015 sophomore album.

Ross is only 18?
... I need help.
But I hope Selena can fully embrace a "sexy" image with her first era under a new label (assuming she wants to release new music, that is)
I think she could pull off a "classy" type of sexy really well. Maybe have an era with that type of image, and fitting songs to match. I'd be here for it.

It doesnt matter what it means. 0_0 HWR is going nowhere.
The highlighted part is another confirmation

Yes, it does.
The OP clearly wanted us to believe that Billboard said after Selena's exit, HWR will go bankrupt or something like that

Interesting read. Glad HWR have no hard feelings with Selena leaving them and signing with a different label. It'll be interesting to see where they go from here and how they're going to treat the other Disney girls; Bridgit, Bella and Olivia.

Well, it says

That’s the question on many Mouse watchers’ minds as Hollywood Records, Disney Music Group’s pop division, tries to arrange a new crop of stars to make up for the mainstays who have jumped ship. Those include Cyrus, who remade her career at RCA Records in 2013, and Selena Gomez, who’s headed to Interscope (a best-of album will be her final release on Hollywood in November).
|
Which sounds like they did lose 2 of their biggest stars.
Obviously HWR wont go bankrupt because of whoever leaving, since Disney is one of the biggest companies.

Right now, Lovato, 22, is Hollywood’s flagship artist, and the last of Disney’s late-2000s teen stars is still releasing hits for the label -- 2013’s Demi spawned three top 40 singles on the Billboard Hot 100. Bunt confirms that Lovato will release a new album on Hollywood in 2015, but while her manager Phil McIntyre talks of a “collaborative relationship and many years of success” with the label, he says he doesn’t know how long the singer will be on the roster.

Plus: Frozen Fever, an animated short that serves as a mini-sequel to the feature film, is due in spring 2015. Although it won’t have a full-length soundtrack, Disney confirms that a new song is coming.
If all else fails, perhaps “Let It Go Again” is just a few months away.
