In 2019, Scooter Braun and Taylor Swift were embroiled in a copyright dispute over the original recordings after Braun bought the singer’s record label. Now, he believes that this conflict has been going on for many years, hoping that the other side will let go of the past.

Appearing at a recent event, Scooter Braun shared about his “feud” with Taylor Swift as well as the documentary Taylor Swift vs. Scooter Braun: Bad Blood. The former manager of Justin Bieber and Ariana Grande said that he initially had no intention of watching the film.

“I thought it was going to be another work aimed at me… But then my parents called and said I should watch it. So I watched it,” Scooter shared.

In addition, the producer said that the public should stop talking about this because the incident happened 5 years ago, and commented that some details were misrepresented in the documentary.

Speaking about his conflict with Taylor Swift, Scooter Braun said that it is very important for the two sides to “talk directly to each other” to resolve the conflict.

“I think it’s not appropriate to argue on social media or in front of the world public. When people actually take the time to confront each other in real life, they can realize that the bad guy is not real and the conflict may not happen,” the CEO of HYBE America said.

Also in the interview, Scooter Braun said that he will not return to the job of artist management. However, when asked which artist he would like to manage, he praised Taylor Swift. He commented that the Cruel Summer singer is “one of the artists worth betting on” because she is always persistent and puts all her effort into her music career.

The male CEO still praised Taylor Swift.

Taylor Swift is currently the most successful artist with 18 years of working in the entertainment industry. Recently, she surpassed Rihanna to become the richest female singer in the world with a fortune of 1.6 billion USD (nearly 40 trillion VND). Most of Taylor’s income comes from music copyright fees and performance activities.

Forbes said that the success of The Eras Tour has helped the singer’s fortune increase dramatically. They estimated that Taylor earned an additional 1.15 billion USD (28.5 trillion VND) from 65 shows in 2024, bringing the total revenue of this tour to about 2.19 billion USD (more than 54 trillion VND) after 125/149 shows. Many comments say the tour will reach the 2.5 billion USD mark (more than 62 trillion VND) after ending in December this year.

With a huge fortune, Taylor Swift often does charity work. Most recently, she donated 5 million USD (124 billion VND) to the Feeding America organization to help those affected by two hurricanes Helene and Milton. Throughout The Eras Tour, the singer also donated money to food banks in the cities she visited.

In addition to charity, the pop superstar is also very generous in paying her staff. In 2023, she awarded a total of more than 50 million USD (more than 1.2 trillion VND) to all members of her crew, from dancers, construction workers, sound technicians to transportation drivers.
