In the wake of her racism scandal, celebrity chef Paula Deen's downfall continues. According to TMZ, the disgraced television personality has just fired her agent, following the loss of lucrative business deals with Walmart, Target, Caesar's Entertainment, The Food Network, KMart, and her book publishers. 

Deen's rep announced the news, saying Deen and her family "thank [agent Barry Weiner] for the tireless effort and dedication over the many years."

Deen's career has been in a major downward spiral since deposition papers leaked which revealed Deen admitted to using racial slurs, including the n-word, in the past.
