Ariana Grande and Taylor Swift fans rejoice as Grande splits with manager Scooter Braun after 10 years
Fans seemed to be cheering on social media on Monday when it was announced that Ariana Grande had severed her professional relationships with manager Scooter Braun after ten years.
Grande, 30, decided Monday to end her business relationship with Braun, 42, and his company SB Projects, Billboard reported, after a decade of releasing six albums.
Feedback on social media appeared to support the Positions actress in her business decision — which came about when Demi Lovato also split from Braun — and many have cited Braun after his controversial purchase of Taylor Swift’s master recordings in received compensation in 2019.
“The bar pauses in the middle of Taylor Swift quiz night to announce that Ariana Grande has been added to the list of stars to drop Scooter Braun, drawing cheers and applause. Love it here,” said one user.
Another quoted Swift lyric from her 2022 track “Karma,” which read, “KARMA’S GONNA TRACK U DOWN, STEP BY STEP FROM TOWN TO TOWN.”
