Scooter Braun Hilariously Trolls Himself After Taylor Swift’s Viral Party

Scooter Braun is finally over his highly-publicized drama with Taylor Swift, but he still has a few regrets.

The CEO of HYBE-America recently took a hilarious swipe at himself, pretending to be shocked by the lack of an invite to the "Bad Blood" hitmaker's star-studded party. She threw a birthday bash in honor of Blake Lively's 37th birthday.

Scooter Braun and Taylor Swift butted heads in 2019 after she vehemently called him out for purchasing her masters and betraying her trust. However, the former music manager told a different story.

Following news of Swift's star-studded party for Lively's birthday, Braun shared his reaction to the viral event on his Instagram Story. He reposted a news headline about the bash alongside the rhetorical question:

"How was I not invited to this?!?"

He doubled down on his playful jab, being harmless, adding: "#laughalittle." Braun's hilarious diss at his beef with Swift came after he went down memory lane with HBO Max's documentary about their highly-publicized feud.

The record executive shared the poster for "Taylor Swift vs Scooter Braun: Bad Blood" on his IG Story alongside a confirmation that he had "finally watched" the documentary. Revisiting their beef seemingly sparked his trolling moment.

The party Braun jokingly lamented about missing took place over the weekend at Swift's $17 million Rhode Island mansion. The lavish soirée was held in honor of the singer's pal, Blake Lively.

Swift hosted the bash to celebrate the "It Ends With Us" actress's 37th birthday and invited some of her famous friends. Naturally, the list included the duo's respective lovers, NFL star Travis Kelce and Hollywood sensation Ryan Reynolds.

The star-studded guests continued with Bradley Cooper, Gigi Hadid, Patrick Mahomes, and his wife, Brittany Mahomes. Channing Tatum and his fiancée, Zoë Kravitz, also attended the party, per Page Six.

Braun's playful reaction to Swift's party was a significant step forward compared to his previous feelings about their strained relationship. The Blast noted his "regret" over the incident in a 2022 interview.

According to Braun, he purchased the music catalog of several artists, including Swift, when he acquired Big Machine Records. He couldn't discuss the deal with anyone because of a "very strict NDA;" however, he believed these singers would trust him.

"So when we finalized the deal, I started making phone calls to say, hey, I'm a part of this. And before I could even do that – I made four phone calls; I started to do those phone calls – all hell broke loose," he recalled.

Braun stressed that his biggest "regret" was assuming that "everyone, once the deal was done, was going to have a conversation with me, see my intent, see my character and say, great, let's be in business together."

As stated, Swift did not handle the news of Braun's purchase positively and slammed him in a scathing Tumblr post. She accused him of "incessant, manipulative bullying" that allegedly went on for years.

"When I left my masters in Scott [Borchetta's] hands, I made peace with the fact that eventually he would sell them. Never in my worst nightmares did I imagine the buyer would be Scooter," Swift's message partly read, adding:

"He knew what he was doing; they both did. Controlling a woman who didn't want to be associated with them. In perpetuity. That means forever."

Swift declared her future wouldn't be in Braun's hands and proved it by re-recording her first six albums. She titled each project "Taylor's Version," reclaiming her rights to the music catalog while pulling off the most iconic revenge scheme.

In June, Braun made headlines for his surprising exit from the music management scene. The Blast reported he announced his resignation in a lengthy Instagram post, claiming it was time for a new era.

Braun's career took a beating following his conflict with Swift; however, he didn't mention her as a reason for his resignation. Instead, the 43-year-old stressed that he wanted to prioritize his family after spending 23 years as a music manager.

"I came to the realization that my kids were 3 superstars I wasn't willing to lose. The sacrifices I was once willing to make I could no longer justify. It was time to step into a new role," he explained, announcing his status as the CEO of HYBE-America.

Could Scooter Braun's playful reaction to Taylor Swift's star-studded party be a small step forward to a possible reconciliation?
