Singer Guy Sebastian Settles Protracted Dispute with Manager
Day admitted he failed to pass on payments owed to Sebastian, and the singer dropped his civil case after a confidential settlement.
- On Wednesday, former manager Titus Day apologized to singer Guy Sebastian for failing to pass on owed payments, ending a decade-long legal dispute with a confidential settlement.
- Sebastian, winner of the first season of Australian Idol, worked with Day starting in 2006; a 2022 jury found Day guilty of embezzling almost $625,000, though a 2025 retrial ended without verdict on remaining counts.
- Day admitted, "There were many instances in which payments that should have been passed on to Guy, were not." Sebastian, who has sold seven million records, accepted the apology to move forward.
- Sebastian's lawyer, Mark Faraday, said the apology "speaks for itself" and contains acknowledgment of unpaid earnings; Sebastian has discontinued his civil action against Day.
- Faraday noted that through difficult circumstances, Sebastian has highlighted the need for high standards in artist management, which he detailed in a March interview with Sunday Life.
