Demi Lovato is on the hunt for new management. In July, the 31-year-old singer parted ways with Scooter Braun, her longtime manager, and is searching for someone new to fill the role.
“This was a mutual and amicable decision to part ways, and the two remain close,” a source has revealed.
Lovato joined Braun’s SB Projects firm in 2019, after previously being managed by Phil McIntyre. She released two albums — Dancing with the Devil… the Art of Starting Over, and Holy Fvck — while with Braun’s firm.
Braun manages the likes of Justin Bieber and Ariana Grande. Earlier this month, reports surfaced that Bieber had parted ways with Braun; however, that was untrue at the time.
“Justin and Scooter are still working together,” the source said. “Justin is not taking meetings to look for new management. The two recently worked on something together.”
Braun has previously been in the news for his ties to Taylor Swift, as he purchased Scott Borchetta’s Big Machine Label Group in 2019, and thus much of Swift’s music catalog.
Since news of the deal broke, Swift has blasted it, claiming that she wasn’t told about Braun’s purchase before it became public and was never given a chance to buy her music, an allegation that Borchetta has denied. The deal is also what prompted the singer to rerecord her first six albums.
