Taylor Swift's Friend Jack Antonoff Takes a Dig at Scooter Braun

  • IndiaGlitz, [Tuesday,August 29 2023]

Music Producer Jack Antonoff, 39, recently displayed his support for Taylor Swift, 33, while throwing shade at rival Scooter Braun, 42. Antonoff, known for his close friendship with Taylor, shared a meme on his Instagram Story on August 27. The meme depicted a Sims character ignoring a burning baby on the floor, with text referencing Ariana Grande, Demi Lovato, and Idina Menzel's departure from Scooter Braun's management. The meme humorously read, Not now sweetie, mommy is trying to figure out why Ariana Grande, Demi Lovato, and Idina Menzel just fired Scooter Braun as their manager.

Jack and Taylor have become close friends due to their musical collaborations. He was even present at Jack's wedding to Margaret Qualley. The tension between Taylor and Scooter arose when his company acquired the rights to her music catalog in 2019, leading her to express her disapproval publicly.

Taylor's response to Scooter's acquisition was to re-record her first six albums. Jack, who worked with Taylor on her re-recordings, has been an essential part of this process. The recent news of some of Scooter's high-profile clients, including Ariana, Demi, Idina, and Carly Rae Jepsen, leaving SB Projects added to the ongoing saga. While there were rumors of Justin Bieber also parting ways with Scooter, they were denied, though reports suggest they haven't communicated much recently.

On August 22, Scooter sarcastically tweeted, Breaking news... I'm no longer managing myself, addressing the reports about clients leaving. Despite this, he still manages a range of stars according to SB Projects' official website. As the industry dynamics continue to shift, the drama surrounding Scooter and his management firm remains in the spotlight.
