Taylor Swift, the American singer, and songwriter declined to participate in Manchester and Parkland benefit concerts that are organized in honor of the lives lost in the Manchester Bombing during Ariana Grande's concert and the Parkland school shooting. The reason is that they were run by Scooter Braun. In the recent cover story for a magazine, the 29-year old singer denied the accusations made on her for missing the performance and said, 'unbelievable'. She further said that everyone in her team knows, if Scooter Braun offers something, it should not be brought up to her.
I hadn’t done a @RollingStone cover in 5 years, and hadn’t seen @hiattb since I got in 2 car crashes while driving him around during our interview in 2012. 🤦♀️ There were no cars driven this time, but we had a lot to catch up on.

Borchetta's accusation
The founder of Big Machine Records, Scott Borchetta accused the singer on her decision to opt-out from the performance. In reply of which, Swift said that the team already knows not to bring her anything by Scooter Braun. Taylor Swift also commented on the prolonged dispute with Brochetta and Braun that started with Brochetta signing a deal with Braun on Swift's masters which are worth $300 million dollars. The singer also believes that the men involved in the acquisition are powerful and rich. Borchetta along with her wife claimed publically that the singer was well aware of the deal and had every chance to keep her master. However, Swift has said repeatedly that she was unknown of the deal in mention. Furthermore, the singer called the deal sneaky.
The main feud
Taylor Swift that the already rich and powerful mean used other people's money worth $300 million
to purchase the “most feminine body of work” and they posed for a photograph with glass. The singer also said that they got the deal done sneakily and was unexpected for her. She further says that she got blindsided with the deal but was not shocked. However, she couldn't make any comment about the same. As opposed to this, Borchetta made a statement on June 30 about how the singer, her father, and shareholders were made aware of the deal before it was broken to public. Swift's team had multiple choices to place her objection. But, she did not. Borchetta and her wife, both statements were made to accuse Taylor Swift.
