Seriously though, to go back on the history of the band, it's always been Amy Lee + main guitarist/songwriter. First it was Ben Moody, now Terry Balsamo.
You can argue that she's a bitch, and I think she probably sometimes is. But by her own admission, she's a control freak, and I think if she indeed fired LeCompt, it was probably because she felt his side project was taking up too much time.
Lars and James from Metallica wouldn't let Jason and Kirk work on side projects either, which is I think partially why Jason left. It's not just Amy Lee that's a control freak or asshole/bitch in this industry.
The whole Moody thing was a control issue plus the fact that he is bipolar, a fact that he now admits to and has seeked help for.
The rest of the band has always been "hired" guns, and if you look at who wrote each album they have very little input.
It's either Amy + Ben or Amy + Terry. With the lovefest that Amy heaps upon Terry, I doubt he's going anywhere anytime soon. So I am sure they'll be fine.
