    Scooter Braun thinks it is time people moved on from his feud with Taylor Swift

    The 43-year-old former music manager famously fell out with the pop superstar after he acquired the rights to her master recordings when he bought her old record label Big Machine, and allegedly slapped her with restrictions on performing her hits live before he sold the rights on to the private equity company Shamrock Holdings


    And while Scooter watched the recent two-part documentary series, 'Taylor Swift vs Scooter Braun: Bad Blood', he felt "a lot of things were misrepresented" in the Max programme.

    Speaking at the Bloomberg Screentime event in Los Angeles on Thursday (11.10.24), Deadline reports he said: "I watched it recently.

    "I wasn't going to watch it because I just thought it was going to be, like, another hit piece. And I pretty much stayed quiet about this kind of stuff. And my dad called me and my mom, and they were like, we just watched it. We think you should watch it. So I did...

    "Look, it's five years later. I think, everyone, it's time to move on."

    After the HYBE America CEO sold the masters on in 2020, Taylor shared a letter with fans on X in which she alleged the rights had been "sold without [her] knowledge" for a second time and Shamrock Holdings had told her they couldn't inform her of the deal before it was complete or it would be cancelled by Scooter.

    But now, Scooter hit out at Taylor for going to social media and not speaking with him directly.

    He said: "I think that it's important in any kind of conflict that people actually communicate directly with each other. I think doing it out on social media and in front of the whole world is not the place.

    "And I think when people actually take the time to stand in front of each other have a conversation, they usually find out the monster's not real, and that hasn't happened. And that has not happened."

    However, the businessman then praised the 'Cruel Summer' hitmaker when asked which artist he would love to build a company around.

    He said: "I'm going to give you the soundbite you're looking for, because I just can't help myself. The PR team is going to be like, 'What?'

    "I think the artist that's one that you should always bet on, and is already a huge star, and you can always bet on because they want it all the time, and they do what it takes to be, you know, present all the time. is Taylor Swift."
