Scooter Braun seems to be changing his tune!!
After being added to a Taylor Swift fan group chat on Twitter, the exec claims he is willing to do what he can “to help fix it all.” The “it all” in question is the ongoing matter of Miz Swift’s music catalogue.

This week, the Lover songstress took to social media to sound off about the latest update in the legal situation: that she cannot perform a medley of old songs at the American Music Awards, and will not be able to feature them in an upcoming Netflix doc about her life.
As you’ll recall, Scott Borchetta (founder of Big Machine Records) issued a lengthy statement on Friday to Variety dancing around the latest legal claims made by Tay. Regardless, Taylor stans are NOT happy, and we’ve been monitoring all the back and forth between camp Braun and camp Swift, including where celebs are siding.
When asked about the latest comments made by the 29-year-old, Braun messaged:
“There isn’t truth to any of the statements and I don’t have nor would I ever block anyone from singing their songs. I don’t even have the right to do that. I also don’t run big machine. That being said as her fans please ask her to call me back so that we can settle this and I hope to build a bridge.”
Wow!!
Though he was pressed more about the matter of future performances, the 38-year-old insisted she can perform her older tunes live:
“She can. I never stopped her nor can I. I’m a fan too. My favorite on the album is The Man. It’s a smash.”
“I have had my convos privately when I was made aware but my biggest hope is to finally connect with her to make this right.”
Not only does Braun say he’s not attempting to block Tay from using her music, but he’s open to selling the catalogue back to her:
“Are u ready for this? If she called me she would know I’m completely open to selling her the catalogue.”
So why hasn’t this been done yet? Apparently, he hasn’t gotten word back from Swift:
“I have tried. No one is calling back. If they do they will see the narrative is wrong. No monster here. That is why we have so many mutual friends. This needs some communication and it’s fixed.”
He seemed to put the burden of response onto the fans in the chat, asking them to press Miz Swift to respond to him:
“I wish you guys well. I hope you push the message of communication. No one wins in drama. I will keep trying to build the bridge. would appreciate your help. I believe no one is a bad person but hurt people hurt people. I want to try and fix the hurt. Take care.”
