Just when we were almost believing celebs can’t survive with one job, they went ahead and proved us right that it’s nice to be famous in Mzansi these days. Celebs quitting jobs has become a trend lately. We’re not sure if these celebs are all quitting in the name of “bigger and better opportunities” or if they are just loaded and don’t feel the pressure everyone seems to be complaining about. However, we don’t know the reasoning behind some of these celebs quitting their jobs. For all we know, they may have quit due to the companies not treating them correctly. Perhaps these companies aren’t too sure on how to retain employees and keep them happy. At the end of the day, celebrities are still people too. If they don’t feel respected or valued in their workplace, they’re going to quit just like normal people would. Sometimes it’s not on the staff, sometimes it could be due to the actions of the company. However, we’ll probably never know why these celebrities felt the need to quit their jobs. For now, we can only assume the reasoning behind these decisions.
