Country star KELLIE PICKLER was dealt a blow on her 26th birthday on Thursday (28Jun12) when record label bosses dropped her.

Her manager Larry Fitzgerald insists the move was a mutual decision, telling ABC News Radio, "Kellie's contract with Sony came to an end, and they mutually decided not to renew."
Pickler refused to acknowledge the bad news on her big day as she took to Twitter.com to announce, "I'M 26! Birthday girl... Thanks for all of the Happy Birthday wishes!! I love y'all!"
