This question has been answered before, and it just doesn't seem to die. Keyboardist and founder Tuomas Holopainen claims that she changed over the years, developing so called "diva" like behaviors, such as neglecting the band, failing to arrive to rehearsals, becoming more concerned with making money than making music, not speaking to him or the other members and that her husband/manager was a bad influence on her and to blame for her new attitude and outlook. She was kicked out of the band on October 22, 2005, nearly 5 years ago.
