Ellie Goulding Sues Ex-Management Company Over Live Nation Ties
World2 sources1 country🔦 Under-reported19m ago
English pop singer Ellie Goulding has filed a lawsuit against her former management company, TaP Management, and its principals Ben Mawson and Ed Millet. The legal action centers on allegations that her management team pushed her to work with Live Nation without disclosing that TaP's parent company, HNOE, was partially and eventually fully owned by Live Nation.
Goulding claims this undisclosed relationship created a significant conflict of interest that financially benefited the managers and the corporate entities involved rather than serving her best interests as an artist.
