Rise To Stardom

Chapter 77: Dethroned

Chapter 77: Dethroned

Kelsey West, was previously, a country-song musician.

However, her luck had changed when one of her songs hit the top of the charts a few years back, bringing her into the mainstream space.

So as not to stay irrelevant, Kelsey, now commonly known by her stage name 'Gingercat', flipped her entire style of music to fit the trends, one that her core fans weren't too happy about.

Sure they were happy for her success but, at the same time, they began to lose interest as she kept on releasing more and more songs that only fit the trends, completely ignoring her country-songs, songs which made her different from other mainstream musicians.

But since the new formula worked for Kelsey and made her relevant in the music industry, she ignored the growing concerns about her music not being distinct anymore and instead, embraced the new change.

Unfortunately, the fame too, also got to her head and soon, she ended up embroiling herself in a few nasty controversies here and there that were mostly her fault.

Before she even knew what was happening though, slowly, she had started to become irrelevant, with most of her fans leaving her, either because they became very disappointed in her, or to find greener pastures in form of fresh new music that wasn't hers.

Her agency too, had also stopped treating her like their golden goose and had instead, given her an ultimatum, one that detailed that unless she had a song that was in the top 10 for an entire month, they would drop her without fail.

This sent Kelsey into a state of panic but, as if the universe was giving her one last chance, one of her recent singles, currently sat at No. 10 on the charts, overtaking the eleventh song by a few million streams.

Believing that she was now back in business, Gingercat was once again found at the center of a major controversy, one where she had been caught sleeping with a well-known music producer who was a married man with kids.

TweetTalk as usual, flamed the topic to no end with people mostly canceling the music producer himself for cheating on his wife whilst Gingercat, stayed relatively unharmed, feeling as if she was untouchable.

But then again, karma was a bit of a bitch.

Receiving a call from her agent a few seconds ago, Kelsey was currently biting her glittered fingernails in fear whilst sweating buckets.

The cause – One particularly crazy song was shaking up the music charts like crazy, its ascent to the top of the charts, unprecedented and phenomenal.
