As if her highly publicized breakup with rapper/boyfriend Big Sean wasn’t enough, the triple threat starlet was reportedly written out of the season finale of the hit series that brought her to fame.

Now, ahead of ever releasing a full length album, reports indicate the ‘Sorry’ singer has been dropped from label home Columbia Records…

It is said all good things must come to an end.  And, if news sources are to be believed, the latest good thing coming to a close is BET’s top rated religious program ‘Celebration of Gospel’.

Henson, boasted the series’ best ratings ever,  fans believed the show’s newest slogan of “forward in faith” was fitting indication that it was moving full speed ahead.
