The rumors have been swirling around Scooter Braun<\/a><\/strong> as of late. It was originally rumored that Justin Bieber<\/a><\/strong> dropped him as a manager (not true), then Demi Lovato<\/a> <\/strong>(true), then Ariana Grande<\/a><\/strong> (possibly not true), and finally Idina Menzel <\/a><\/strong>(true).<\/p>\n

Braun, one of the highest-profile managers in the music industry, is taking a step back from managing some of his superstar clients as he takes on a new role as CEO of Hybe America<\/a>, a source close to the situation confirmed Tuesday (Aug. 22, 2023).<\/p>\n

Puck News reported Friday that Braun was on the outs with his oldest major client, Justin Bieber. Reports from other outlets circulated Monday that Braun also lost singers Ariana Grande and Demi Lovato.<\/p>\n

A source familiar with the matter said Braun\u2019s firm, SB Projects, has amicably parted ways with Lovato and another client, Idina Menzel.<\/p>\n

Colombian superstar J Balvin<\/strong> also departed SB Projects in May this year.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll of Scooter Braun\u2019s clients are under contract, and negotiations have been going on for several months as Scooter steps into his larger role as Hybe America CEO,\u201d the source said. \u201cPeople are spreading rumors based on what they know, but they are off.\u201d<\/p>\n

Conversations about representation have been going on for months, but there is \u201cno bad blood\u201d between Braun and the clients, the source said. Bieber and Grande remain under contract with SB Projects \u201cas they work through what this new structure looks like.\u201d<\/p>\n

Braun seemed to joke about the reports on X, formerly known as Twitter.<\/p>\n
