Christina Milian Dropped From Island Def Jam
Word is Island Def Jam dropped Christina Milian, after her third album, "So Amazin,' " was less than amazin' in sales. The heavily hyped album sold a meager 50,000 units ? in the week after its May 16 release. Sources say Island Def Jam gave her a promotional budget worthy of Mariah Carey.
Adding insult to injury, I herd Vibe magazine canceled Milian's scheduled August cover, after Island Def Jam informed the mag that she's toast ? and replaced her with R&B singer Keyshia Cole.
I?m told that Milian passed on recording "S.O.S. (Rescue Me)," which ended up becoming a hit single for her label mate Rihanna ? whose record, "Girl Like Me," sold 115,000 copies in its first week.
