"Never, ever messing with someone else's fella again."
It almost sounds like the line from a song that could be sung by Sinead O'Connor. It's actually words written by O'Connor in her confessional piece on why she needs a new manager.
It seems that Sinead and her former manager were having an affair behind the back of the manager's girlfriend. In the piece, published on her website, she details the regret she has over the dalliance and her trepidation about finding a new manager.
"Wasn't at all proud of myself. Or him. ... Its the most disgusting thing a woman could possibly do to another woman. And it smacks of zero self-esteem."
O'Connor has had a history of mental illness which has had an effect over her career. Just in the last few years she has gotten into a Twitter war with Mylie Cyrus and has been treated after saying on the service that she had attempted suicide. At one point, she had announced that she was diagnosed as bi-polar but later stated that, after seeking further opinions, she was not.
The following is O'Connor's full statement:
Shit day from hell.
'Have had to leave my manager.
'Not that we didn't get on well, we got on too well, both fell equally in love.
'Had a month long affair, but he has a girlfriend, so naturally I gotta vanish.
'Extraordinarily sad and depressing, but there it is.
Another manager bites the dust.
So now I need to find a new manager and I haven't a fucking clue where to start.
'Shoulda fucking thought about that before I got involved with someone else's fella.
'Been secretly fucking miserable as a motherfucker since the second it started.
'Wasn't at all proud of myself. Or him.
'Never, ever messing with someone else's fella again.
Its the most disgusting thing a woman could possibly do to another woman.
And it smacks of zero self-esteem.
So, back to the therapist for Sinead.
For which unfairly, I may not invoice my parents.
If anyone knows anyone who might be interested in managing me could they please e mail me at Iamwonderful@me.com
I do not have a career in America, my career is European based, so it needs to be someone who is familiar with the European market.
While waiting for the right permanent manager I could do with a 'temp' so if you know anyone please let me know.
