Scooter Braun reaches agreement over divorce

Alec Baldwin's controversial movie Rust will resume production in January. In October 2021, production on the western was suspended indefinitely after Baldwin's prop firearm discharged during a rehearsal, injuring director Joel Souza and killing cinematographer Halyna Hutchins. Her family filed a wrongful death lawsuit over the incident in February, and on Wednesday, it was announced that all parties had reached a settlement, which involves Hutchins' husband Matthew boarding the project as an executive producer.

Katie Reul editor Individuals seeking advice from self-help guide Cathy Heller are usually met with a daunting waitlist, but after signing her first Simon & Schuster book deal, nuggets of wisdom from the L.A.-based life coach will become far more accessible. Titled “Abundant Ever After: Building the Future You Can’t Stop Dreaming About,” Heller’s new book outlines the steps to align with one’s truest, most personal self — from filtering intrusive thoughts to matching the vibrational energy of your surroundings. The novel will be released in hard cover on Aug. 22, 2023. As explored in her novel, Heller theorizes that all humans have the capacity to change their lives for the better and rewrite the narrative they’ve been given — a journey she’s experienced first-hand.

Scooter Braun has said that he regrets how things turned out with Taylor Swift when he acquired her former label Big Machine back in 2018.Although – like Swift – he somewhat blames the label’s former owner Scott Borchetta for the massive fallout that followed the announcement of that deal. Nonetheless, he admits to a certain level of “arrogance” to think that “someone would just be willing to have a conversation and be excited to work with me”.“I learned an important lesson from [the Big Machine acquisition]”, he tells NPR in a new interview.

On this week’s episode of NPR’s The Limits With Jay Williams, music mogul Scooter Braun joined the former NBA star — and his longtime friend — to discuss his life and career. During the interview, Williams brought up about Braun’s recent conflict with Taylor Swift, whose catalog he acquired in 2019 from her former label, Big Machine. Swift referred to the acquisition as her “worst-case scenario” at the time and said she was “sad and grossed out” by the way it had been handled in an impassioned Tumblr post.

Lots of time thinking. Scooter Braun speaks out about how he handled Taylor Swift’s masters. In a conversation with NPR’s The Limits with Jay Williams, the entrepreneur reveals how he regrets how things went down between him and the Midnights artist.

former label, Big Machine Records (run by Scott Borchetta), of her first six albums to , who then after Swift began in one of the biggest power moves in music history. Swift was not made aware of the initial deal until the news broke to the public, writing that it was her “” in an emotional Tumblr post. "I learned about Scooter Braun's purchase of my masters as it was announced to the world," she wrote at the time. Three years later, Braun is opening up about the controversial deal in a new interview with NPR's Jay Williams, claiming he was under “a very strict NDA” that made it impossible to warn Swift—or any other Big Machine artist—ahead of time.

Taylor Swift‘s master recordings.Back in 2019, Swift confirmed her plans to re-record songs from her first six records in a bid to take control over her music once again after music manager Braun and his media holding company, Ithaca Holdings LLC, acquired Swift’s old label, Big Machine Label Group, back in June 2019.The story then hit headlines again in late 2020 after Swift confirmed that the ownership of her back catalogue has changed hands again for the second time within two years.After news broke of Braun selling the rights to Swift’s music to the private equity company Shamrock Holdings in a $300million (£230m), the singer shared a statement in which she said that the master recordings “were not for sale to me”.“This was the second time my music had been sold without my knowledge,” Swift said. “The letter told me that they wanted to reach out before the sale to let me know, but that Scooter Braun had required that they make no contact with me or my team, or the deal would be off.” Swift’s statement claims that Braun will continue to profit from her catalogue “for many years”.Speaking this week on NPR show The Limits With Jay Williams, Braun was asked about the situation and whether he had any regrets about how he handled the deal.“When you bought the rights to Taylor Swift’s masters, it turned into a really big thing,” Williams said, adding: “If you could go back in time… Would you have handled it differently?”Braun then responded: “Yes, I would’ve.

Scooter Braun wishes he could have done things differently when it came to buying Taylor Swift’s music library.

Scooter Braun learned a big lesson after he acquired Big Machine Records in 2019, resulting in a controversial dispute with Taylor Swift.

NPR, he learned an “an important lesson” about transparency from the Big Machine deal about keeping artists in the loop. “I learned an important lesson from that. So when I ended up selling our company recently to HYBE, I told myself this time around, everyone is going to participate.

Scooter Braun is reflecting.

Jem Aswad Senior Music Editor As has been well documented, the 2018, Scooter Braun-led acquisition of Big Machine Music Group — and the rights to Taylor Swift’s first six albums — caused some controversy. Swift — who had attempted, unsuccessfully, to acquire the rights herself — was outraged, launching not only a global dialog about artists owning the rights to their work, but sticking it to the new owners by beginning a campaign to re-record all of those albums and encouraging her fans to stream the new “Taylor’s Versions” instead of the earlier ones; two such albums have been released to great success. She had few kind words for Braun in the process. Braun bore the substantial wrath of the Swifties for a year or two before selling off the catalog (for a tidy profit) and said he had attempted to speak with the singer about the issue multiple times after the sale was finally revealed, to little avail. He has since sold his own company to the South Korean entertainment powerhouse HYBE, and continues to run it and manage the careers of Justin Bieber, Ariana Grande and others.
