If you are a Swiftie you know all about Taylor Swift’s legal battle with Scooter Braun in 2019. For those of you who don’t, Braun paid $300 million to own the rights of Taylor’s music. This is not what Taylor wanted, so she has been rerecording the albums she doesn’t own. Kelly Clarkson has given Swift some advice on the matter that Scooter Braun was not too fond of.

Kelly And Taylor Think Alike

Maybe the two performers have more in common than they think. Clarkson has the idea that Swift should rerecord her old albums that her former label, Big Machine Records, had previously bought from her. Kelly even decided to share the idea she had with Taylor via Twitter.

“@taylorswift13 just a thought, U should go in & re-record all the songs that U don’t own the masters on exactly how U did them but put brand new art & some kind of incentive so fans will no longer buy the old versions.”

People reports that Taylor Swift never thanked Clarkson for the idea, but Kelly still adores the 33-year-old performer. It is assumed that Swift had the idea and had it in the works before Kelly tweeted about it.

Scooter Braun Feels Attacked

Kelly reported that after a run-in with one another, she could tell Scooter had taken offense to her showing Taylor support.

“Scooter took offense to it … we ran into each other, and he reached out at the time to my manager. I was like, ‘It wasn’t anything against him, when she came out and said that and I heard about it, I was like, ‘Whatever. Re-record them. Your fans will support you.’ Uh, they did. She has like every top record right now in the charts!”

Scooter Braun never confronted Kelly Clarkson directly about the situation but had talked about it with Clarkson’s former manager. Regardless, Kelly seems to be supporting Taylor and her rerecordings. Clarkson also really respects Swift and her professionalism.

“All I heard was, ‘Man, I really want to own,’ and I was like, ‘Man, that song.’ She writes everything! It’s so important to her. She’s a businesswoman. It felt wrong that she didn’t have the opportunity. Right? That’s the thing. If you have the opportunity and you choose to not pay that much money, that’s one thing, but to not have the opportunity to own something that is really important to you … I’m not that artist. I don’t care like what I own, I’m not a businesswoman at all.”

Kelly has always been an uplifting person and was only trying to give a fellow female artist support. She did not seem to be doing it out of spite or anger, nor did she mean to make Scooter feel attacked. Do you think Scooter should be offended? Sound off in the comments below.
