Music producer Mark Ronson has been warned by his manager to cut back on his huge entourage - because he is not making enough money to keep them on tour.
Despite being among this year's Grammy winners with his own gong for Producer Of The Year the Valerie hitmaker is failing to make money from touring.
But Ronson is putting his lack of earnings down to the fact that he brings too many friends on tour with him - which is clawing away at his profits.
He says, "My manager is annoyed with me, because I always bring so many people on tour with me.
"The costs are so high that I never make money from touring, but I don't really care about that. If we can break even, I'm fine. This isn't my day job. Producing records is my day job."
