After Mann finished I'm with Stupid, her record company, Imago, encountered financial problems and delayed its release. Imago eventually sold it to Geffen, which signed Mann in 1994 and released I'm with Stupid in 1995.<ref name="Meter-1999">Template:Cite news</ref> Like Whatever, it received positive reviews but failed to meet sales expectations.<ref name="Meter-1999" /><ref name=":0" /> As of February 2001, it had sold 123,000 copies in the United States.<ref name=":0">Template:Cite news</ref>
