Scooter Braun Latest News, Photos, and Videos

Taylor Swift is calling on all Swifties to help her amid her latest battle with music mogul Scooter Braun and Big Machine’s Scott Borchetta, the men who own the master recordings for her first six albums.

You probably remember the feud that Taylor was in with the men over the summer and now it’s continuing because they allegedly won’t let her perform old music at the 2019 American Music Awards, where she’s being honored with the Artist of the Decade Award.

Taylor’s plans to perform a medley of her hits is currently in jeopardy as Scooter and Scott are supposedly using the performance as a means to get her to agree to things she doesn’t want to do.

In the open letter, Taylor also revealed that she has a Netflix documentary in the works and the duo also will not let her use “older music or performance footage for this project, even though there is no mention of either of them or Big Machine Records anywhere in the film.”

If you’re not fully aware of the situation, Taylor launched her career on Big Machine Records and the label owns the master recordings to all of the music featured on her first six albums. She decided to leave the label and release her new album Lover with Republic Records, where she will own her masters moving forward.

Big Machine was then bought by Scooter for $300 million earlier this year, which was Taylor‘s worst nightmare because she has felt bullied by him in the past. Read what she wrote in her open letter back in June about the situation.

Taylor is now asking her fans to let Scooter, Scott, and the other artists they work with (like Justin Bieber, Ariana Grande, and Demi Lovato) “know how you feel about this.”

“I just want to be able to perform MY OWN music. That’s it. I’ve tried to work this out privately through my team but have not been able to resolve anything. Right now my performance at the AMA’s, the Netflix documentary, and any other recorded events I am planning to play until November of 2020 are a question mark. I love you guys and I thought you should know what’s been going on,” she concluded the letter.

Scooter Braun has opened up more about his ongoing feud with Taylor Swift in a new podcast.

Speaking on Tony Gonzalez’s Wide Open podcast, the music manager chatted about the famous feud and how he’s sticking to his guns.

If you recall, Scooter purchased Big Machine Label Group, which owns the masters to Taylor‘s first six albums. The purchase is something that Taylor called “her worst nightmare”.

Scooter received a ton of backlash from Taylor and her fans, but he’s sticking to his side of the story.

“You got to know your intention,” he shared. “I think you should have no regrets in life unless you do something with malicious intent. If I go through life with no malicious intent … hurt people hurt people. They’re going to project it onto you, they are going to say certain things.”

However, he’s not letting any online hate get to him: “I don’t really carry it. I used to get really angry, but now I am at a place where this is just an opportunity for me long-term to really truly show my truth.”

“It’s hard when you get attacked and it’s not based on any truth, but for that other person it may be based in truth but they don’t have all the information,” he explained. “And that’s why I am always open to communication and having a conversation with someone and saying, ‘Maybe this was a misunderstanding and I am happy to have the conversation with you.’ But not everybody is willing to do that and you can’t go through life thinking you’re going to be friends and everyone is going to like you.”

Scooter added, “I try to do the right thing. Not everyone is going to be happy with what you do. I think in the long-term, I’ve learned this over time, the truth always comes out. And I am confident in that.”

Taylor recently revealed that she will be re-recording her old songs.

Taylor Swift is opening up about her feud with Scooter Braun and why she believes so strongly in artists owning their own music.

The 29-year-old singer was interview by radio host Elvis Duran on Friday morning (August 23) in New York City.

“It’s mine! She’s mine, fully mine,” Taylor said about owning the music on Lover. “I’m happy to take full ownership of this album. It’s not just from a business perspective, it’s like your heart belongs in that art you made. And the person who bought my art, he’s never made any art in his life, so he doesn’t know what it’s like. He could never understand that personal connection. When you make something and then someone buys it out from under you… I don’t think that a lot of people understand that’s how our business works. They think we own what we make.”

“I think it’s interesting to get that out there. There are so many people who want to be musicians and they need to learn these things because I didn’t know these things when I was a teenager,” she said.

If you weren’t aware, music mogul Scooter Braun purchased Taylor‘s previous label Big Machine Label Group for $300 million and he now owns her previous master recordings.

Scooter Braun is opening up about his history with Taylor Swift!

The 38-year-old music manager told the story of his first meeting with the 29-year-old pop star in a new interview with Billboard.

According to Scooter, the meeting went down in June of 2010, when his client, Justin Bieber, was opening for Taylor on her Fearless tour stop in Foxborough, Massachusetts.

Scooter also met with his future business partner, Big Machine record label founder Scott Borchetta, that day.

“Our stories were similar,” Scooter said. “Everyone at Big Machine — Taylor was kind, Scott was kind — everyone was kind to me and Justin when we were doing that show, and you don’t forget those things. I never forgot that, and we started a friendship.”

Scooter wouldn’t get into details with the magazine about his recent drama with Taylor, following his purchase of her old label.

Taylor put extra emphasis on the lyrics “While you’ve been getting down and out about the liars and the dirty, dirty cheats in the world” – and fans think it’s directed a Scooter.

Demi Lovato is always going to be loyal to her team and that’s why she is publicly showing support for her manager Scooter Braun, who is being bullied by fans of Taylor Swift following his purchase of her master recordings.

The 26-year-old singer only recently signed with Scooter and she is crediting him for coming into her life at the right time.

On her Instagram Stories, Demi wrote, “I have dealt with bad people in this industry and Scooter is not one of them. He’s a good man. Personally, I’m grateful he came into my life when he did. Please stop ‘dragging’ people or bullying them. There’s enough hate in this world as it is.”

Demi added, “Y’all can come after me all you want but I’m always gonna stay loyal to my team. I value loyalty more than most people in this world and if my name is gonna be brought into conversations I’m gonna stand up for myself and the ones on my team.”

Demi also hit the like button for the Instagram posts written by Justin Bieber and Yael Cohen in support of Scooter.

In response to Todrick Hall‘s claim that Scooter is homophobic, she said “making claims that someone is homophobic is really serious. Please don’t spread information that isn’t true because I can guarantee you Scooter isn’t.” See the whole response in the gallery.

Hailey Bieber took to Instagram to praise her husband Justin Bieber‘s message to Taylor Swift… and now Cara Delevingne is blasting the married couple.

As you probably know by now, Taylor‘s master recordings were just sold to Scooter Braun without her knowing about it first and she’s rightfully upset.

Justin took to Instagram and called out Taylor for her blog post about the sale as now her fans are bullying Scooter, his longtime manager.

Hailey commented on the post and simply said, “Gentleman.”

Cara replied in a comment and said, “Gentleman? @haileybieber @justinbieber you must be bored. I wish you spent less time sticking up for men and more time trying to understand women and respecting their valid reactions.”

She added, “As a married man, you should be lifting women up instead of tearing them down because you are threatened. I am not sure you actually understand what an apology is. This issue that @taylorswift is talking out is about far more than a picture and you know that. As you said, you haven’t spoken to her in years which means you definitely don’t understand the situation. I do. Take a step back and try and learn from this. We should all be on the same team. End of story.”

Cara Delevingne and Taylor Swift are longtime friends and the model even appeared in the “Bad Blood” music video.

Taylor‘s rep has spoken out today to deny a false story spreading around about this all.
