PageSix reports that the megastar quietly parted ways with her longtime business manager Lee Anne Callahan-Longo and hired a new team to steer her career and land her more lucrative deals.

Per the report:

Beyoncé is now working with Steve Pamon, cialis sale who was JPMorgan Chase’s head of sports and entertainment marketing and masterminded the bank’s sponsorship of Queen Bey and Jay Z’s 2014 On the Run tour.

A source tells us, store “Beyoncé basically cleaned house, see got rid of her whole team, which included her cousin, and hired a new team. She wants to surround herself with business people who could take her career to an even higher level.” The insider added, “She has one album left to deliver before her deal is up with Columbia, plus she wants to make smarter decisions where it comes to touring, sponsorships and acting roles.”

Beyoncé brought Pamon over from JPMorgan Chase to her company, Parkwood Entertainment — which encompasses artist management, music production, tours, motion pictures, TV specials and apparel (as well as every facet of Beyoncé’s career ) — late last year. Former Universal Republic and Island Def Jam exec Peter Thea has also joined her team, along with Dan Ghosh-Roy, who heads up her digital operation.

The 34-year-old’s longtime publicist offered the following:

“Last year, Parkwood Entertainment created new departments and recruited new executives from the tech, business and entertainment sectors who joined the team to help grow Parkwood and its interests .?.?. Some senior staffers were given the opportunity to reposition and stay on. Some members .?.?. awakened [to] new interests and decided to follow personal routes.

“Lee Anne Callahan-Longo has worked with Beyoncé for the last 10 years. Their friendship supersedes business, and while she is no longer an employee of Parkwood, she will remain an imperative part of Beyoncé’s life.”

Wow.

In many ways this is perhaps the most marked change the star has made professionally since parting ways with her father Mathew Knowles back in 2011. For most of the mentioned names have been in the mix since the onset of her solo run and some as far back as Destiny’s Child.

How the new Bey Team fare will be especially interesting to see. Exciting, in fact.

In more ways than one, bring on the new “era”!
