Scooter Braun has raised eyebrows with a claim that his infamous feud with Taylor Swift helped improve her career. The 44-year-old music producer and the 35-year-old Wildest Dreams singer clashed in 2019 when he bought her old record label, Big Machine Label Group.
Taylor’s first six records’ master recordings were included in the deal, which caused her to bitterly criticize the businessman. She then went on to re-record her albums and re-release them for a sizable sum of money.
After re-releasing four of the six albums this year, Taylor successfully recovered the rights to her own music, giving the impression that she might no longer be able to re-record her debut and Reputation albums. Scooter now makes the suggestion that Taylor’s feud that led to the re-release of the records may have contributed to her finding success that she would not otherwise have been able to achieve despite her re-recording of four albums.
Fans of the actor have, however, made it abundantly clear that they disagree with Scooter’s theory and that he should be punished for his criticism. Taylor’s fans have criticized Scooter for his comments, but he has also shared his thoughts with praise for the Lavender Haze singer.
Scooter and the chart-topping star spoke on Danielle Robay’s Question Everything podcast about their relationship. He cited her re-recorded albums as the “most impressive moment of her career,” reinvigorating her career with each.
The Big Machine Records and Taylor’s masters were previously reported to have cost $ 300 million (£220 million) to acquire Scooter in 2019. After selling the records to an investment firm called Shamrock Holdings for $ 45 million (£ 300 million), Swift herself purchased the music in May for a ‘$ 360 million (£ 268 million) later.
Scooter gushed, “It was brilliant on her part. You could see a spike in the original catalog, but she also released one each time. Funny enough, everyone involved in the saga triumphed, both financially and psychologically.
She is “the biggest artist of all time and the biggest she’s ever been.” The asset was really useful to us. Because of those spikes, the people who purchased the asset did incredibly well.
There are situations in life where there is no need for an oppressor and oppressed, there are situations where it is a miscommunication, and everyone can succeed, I wish kids and people out there knew that.
Fans of Taylor, who took to social media to criticize him, however, his comments sparked a backlash. She lives rent-free in his tiny head, one user wrote on X.
Another typed: “Man takes credit for the success of a woman,” an old tale. A third person wrote, “Is he obsessed or obsessed? “
Scooter is famous for helping discover Canadian pop star Justin Bieber – and the two famously parted ways, on a business level, in 2023. Earlier this month, Justin released his seventh studio album – which was his first since he ended his partnership with Scooter.
The businessman took to social media to praise the 31-year-old singer, however, writing ia Instagram Stories: “Been having a beautiful start to the weekend and been getting a lot of texts about how I feel about Justin’s new album.
“I’ll just leave this here,” I said. Without a doubt, this is Justin Bieber’s most authentic album to date. It is truly him, raw, and beautiful. And that is significant.
He continued, “I’ve had the honor of witnessing his development for almost 20 years. There comes a point where an artist fully enters their own space, as is the case with every journey, and that’s what he’s doing here. You can tell from the first run how passionate he is about this project.
I’m pleased to see him go about doing it in this way because the way he chose to release it is just as deliberate as the music itself. I didn’t play any role in this one, but as someone who has always believed in him, I’m incredibly proud and impressed, and I’m really enjoying the music.
Scooter added: “Justin has a special tone that I have witnessed for almost 2 decades. It’s the best in the world. And because of that special tone, I have to say daisies is probably my favorite record on the album.”
Betfred Super League
Wigan (0) 12
Wade attempts, Havard goals, Smith 2.
Hull FC (20) 32
With a superb victory over reigning champion Wigan Warriors at the Brick Community Stadium, Hull FC completely transformed the Super League play-off picture.
With a utterly dominant first-half display that gave Matt Peet’s side a 20-point lead, the Black and Whites completely blew it.
And they came back after the break to show that it wasn’t a fluke, scoring two more tries to bring their total to sixth place.
Hull FC put together their best performance of the season while second-placed Wigan was below their usual high standards. They used a tactical masterclass to target the home side’s vulnerability with the high ball.
In the second half, Wigan’s account was opened by Winger Christian Wade’s superb solo effort, but his handling errors during attempts to catch high kicks led to Hull tries on three occasions.
After four minutes, Zach Eckersley looked certain to score in the corner, but his failure to ground the ball suggested that this might not be a routine 80 minutes.
The home side’s cards began to fall ominously when the center was immediately helped off after suffering a potentially serious lower leg injury shortly after.
Sure enough, Hull FC took the lead, and their opening attempt served as a model for how they defeated their hosts throughout the afternoon.
Wade may be devastating going forward, as he later demonstrated, but Aidan Sezer quickly realized he was vulnerable when he faced a high ball, and Wade forced him to fumble on the fifth tackle before Jed Cartwright threw his chip away.
Following that, Wigan made a superb field position, which a Sezer line break and offload gave Cartwright a second on 23 minutes, when they made the next error with a Kaide Ellis fumble 30 meters out.
Sezer then successfully angled his 30-minute cut through the posts himself. The Black and Whites won 20-0 with a penalty from Charles just before the half-time break.
The pep talk from his Hull counterpart John Cartwright did not perform as well as it did from Wigan’s Peet at half-time.
On 54 minutes, Wade’s superb rubber-ball run down the left and his balance and dancing feet leading to a score of 20-6 suggested Wigan might make a game of it, leading to a 20-6 lead.
However, Hull FC gradually regained control after Jai Field was forced to leave the field after hitting his head on the turf and failing a head injury assessment that had prevented him from playing next week’s game against Catalan Dragons.
On 64 minutes, Harvey Barron should have converted from the right corner but Jordan Rapana missed the opportunity to convert after another Wade fumble under a high kick from Charles.
Ethan Havard from Wigan once more cut the lead to 26-12 with additional extras from Harry Smith, but Jack Ashworth put the finishing touches on a brilliant performance by extending the lead back up to 20 close to the hooter.
After winning the Challenge Cup in March, Hull FC won their second game against Wigan, but Cartwright will now have to concentrate on their home form, which has been their biggest flaw this season.
Matt Peet, the coach of Wigan:
“Christian Wade apologized to the team for making a few errors right away on the field, but I knew it would happen, so I made the decision to choose him.”
“I had enough in practice last week to believe that we would move in the right direction,” said Christian, who made a few errors and was clinical for Hull FC.
“But he’s been playing well and will continue to work hard.” That’s the sport’s nature.
I understand how and why it happened, but we’re disappointed to lose, especially when we concede the points we did in the first half. When people find out about it, it surprises me.
“The play-offs are very possible in the present league table,” said one player.
John Cartwright, the coach of Hull FC, told BBC Radio Humberside:
“I thought the entire team did a fantastic job.” We’ve struggled to hold on to the ball for a while, which has hurt us, but today everything worked out for us.
Christian Wade has a lot of carry, but he is new to the game and is very dangerous when he kicks high to him and attempts to make a tackle on him. The key factors were the kick’s and chase’s positions.
Although I’m not sure if many people believed we could have won, I’ve always liked the phrase “underdog.” A plan rarely comes to fruition 100%, and today was one of those days.

After missing out on Saturday’s 4-0 pre-season friendly defeat by Celtic, Newcastle manager Eddie Howe is “confident” that Alexander Isak will still play for the club at the start of the season.
After being the subject of transfer interest this summer, the 25-year-old’s future has been uncertain.
After the disappointing defeat at Celtic Park, Howe remarked, “I think it’s difficult for me to give a player a fuller explanation.” Because it’s football and you never know what might happen, I wouldn’t sit here and do that.
However, Alex enjoys visiting Newcastle. He and I have never had any issues with each other, and he loves the staff, the team, and the players he plays for.
At the start of the season, I’m confident that he will be here.
After Joe Willock had brought Nick Pope down inside the box, Arne Engels sent him the wrong way from the penalty spot, leading Celtic in the 28th minute.
Just before half-time, keeper Pope rushed off his line and made an error by attempting to head a long ball clear, allowing Johnny Kenny to net it into the bottom corner.
Anthony Elanga made his debut for Newcastle at the break, but the winger was unable to make an impact. He moved to Nottingham Forest for £55m earlier this month.
Seven minutes after the break, South Korean keeper Martin Dubravka was substituted for by Celtic with a close-range goal from the spot.
Newcastle conceded a fourth goal with a 75th-minute header into the top corner despite having more possession in the second half.
On Sunday, July 27 in Singapore (12:30 BST), the Magpies take on Arsenal in their next pre-season game.
Boss Howe questioned whether Isak would be on the tour, adding, “Yeah, absolutely. He is a member of our team. I anticipate him at this very moment.
Myleene Klass sent her love to her old school, where she now mentors, after a fire broke out. The former Hear’Say singer, 47, took to her Instagram Stories to share a picture of a billowing plume of smoke emerging from the buildings of Clifton Park Academy in Gorleston-on-Sea this week.
She stated in the caption, “This is my former state school, where I now lead instruction.” I’m happy you’re all safe, Cliff Park teachers and students. I’m told that the teachers did a fantastic job of removing you. I’m sorry, but your last day of school ended this way. I’m happy you’re all fine. Sending my love,” he said before calling the school.

Before concluding, she continued, “Well done once more to my colleagues and teachers for getting the kids out safely.” She also shared a screenshot of the news article about the fire.
As part of their commitment to help the school make a full recovery, Norfolk Fire and Rescue Service was called to the primary school at 13.16 after receiving reports of a fire on Friday afternoon.
Following the incident, Norfolk Fire and Rescue Service’s head of operations, Paul Seaman, stated: “We will remain on the scene and do whatever is necessary to support the school and the local community to a full recovery.”
After all children were safe and accounted for, the school released a statement on their social media page. They wrote on Facebook: “Following the fire at the academy earlier this afternoon, we can confirm that everyone is safe and that all children have now been collected.
At a later time, there will be arrangements for additional information regarding the collection of belongings, including bikes and scooters. I appreciate your cooperation and understanding.
Following a number of miscarriages, Myleene received an MBE at Windsor Castle several days after dedicating herself to raising awareness and supporting legal reforms.
The King himself has now acknowledged that miscarriage care and healthcare needs to advance, the 47-year-old star said in a statement to PA news agency. Women can benefit from changing the law because we are in a position to do so.
One of the nation’s leading voices for change has been Myleene, who has already had four miscarriages herself.
She referred to the award as recognition for “the accomplishments of so many people who work together” to improve what she termed a neglected area of women’s health.
You just feel like you need someone to help you out of it when you’re going through your own miscarriages, she said. Women feel so lost and let down by miscarriage healthcare because there is so much negativity about it.
