Taylor remade her previous albums after a dispute with her old label Big Machine Records.
She has so far released Fearless (Taylor’s Version) Red (Taylor’s Version) before Speak Now last month.
In 2019, Taylor took to her Tumblr to reveal that “bully” Scooter Braun – who is the manager of Justin Bieber, Ariana Grande and many more – has taken over the label she was previously with – Big Machine Records.
His company Ithaca Holdings LLC bought Big Machine Label Group for a reported $300 million.
The deal included the master recordings of all six of her albums – all of her previous music and her legacy.
On her Tumblr post, Taylor slammed both Scooter and Big Machine Label Group CEO Scott Borchetta, revealing that she wasn’t given the chance to buy her own masters and that the former bullied her for years.
Kloss’ presence on the show came as a shock to Swift fans — Swift didn’t attend any of Kloss’s weddings to Joshua Kushner, and the model’s close bond with Scooter Braun may have been the final nail in the coffin.
But Kloss — who previously vowed she’d “always” have Swift’s back but is managed by Braun — was in the audience as the Grammy Award winner took the stage at SoFi Stadium.
