Mariah Carey's former manager accuses her of sexual harassment

Stella Bulochnikov is seeking monetary compensation in an amount that is to be decided at trial

Mariah Carey's former manager Stella Bulochnikov has charged the singer of sexual harassment, reported E! Online.


Stella's lawyer filed in New York notifying Carey of their intention to sue for violation of the US Civil Rights Act, California Fair Employment and Housing Act, breach of contract and breach of fiduciary duty among others.

Mariah has been accused of frequently being naked in front of Stella, who claims that she was unfairly dismissed mid-contract and is, thus, owed money. The amount is reported to be in the millions.

Stella's lawyer Pierce O'Donnell further alleged Mariah is "addicted to alcohol, prescription pills and marijuana," and if there is no settlement, he plans to proceed with a "blockbuster exposé lawsuit."

Mariah's lawyer responded to the lawsuit by stating, "Stella Bulochnikov was terminated from employment as Mariah's manager due to failure to perform her job effectively and ill-serving."

He added, "Stella was not under contract for employment and has been spreading false rumours to media outlets. We won't respond to lies and threats. Again, if this frivolous and baseless claim is filed, we will defend against it vigorously and successfully."

According to a source close to Mariah, Stella apparently took money she wasn't entitled to, charged hundreds of thousands of her personal expenses to Mariah's credit cards and violated California law by finding a way around Mariah's talent agent to try and book engagements for herself. To this, Stella's representative replied, "The statements regarding our client, Stella Bulochnikov Stolper, put out by Mariah Carey's representatives are demonstrably false."

He added, "Stella denies any and all allegations of wrongdoing. We will ensure that the truth will come out at the appropriate time."

In November 2017, it was confirmed that the two women had professionally parted ways. "After working together for almost three years, Mariah Carey and Stella Bulochnikov have determined that it is in their mutual best interest to part ways on day-to-day management," a statement from Stella read.

It further stated, "During their time working together, they have accomplished great things, including, most recently, Mariah's new music and motion picture projects for this upcoming holiday season. Mariah and Stella remain partners in a number of business ventures and will continue to support each other in those endeavours."
