These demands included things like agreeing not to re-record “copycat” versions of her masters next year and not speaking about Scooter or Scott in the press.   

  

                  

        

                This meant that Taylor’s performance at the American Music Awards – where she had intended to perform a medley of her songs as part of her acceptance of the Artist of the Decade award – had been put at a “question mark” .       

                                     

          

              

                As you probably know by now, this is yet another addition to theongoing feudbetween Taylor and Scooter Braun, which started when he purchased Taylor’s former label, Big Machine Records.

With that purchase came the acquisition of the rights to all of Taylor’s previous masters, which Taylor spoke up against, revealing that Scooter hadmistreated and bulliedher in the past.

  

      

         

                  

                      

                Following Taylor’s most recent statement, Swifties from all across the world have been showing their support for the singer under the hashtag #IStandWithTaylor.       

  

      

               

          

            

Taylor Swift has been writing songs on her bedroom floor ever since she was a kid & throughout her career men have constantly tried to bury her, manipulate her & take credit for her hard work and achievements. Artists should have the right to own their work. #IStandWithTaylor

                Alongside that, Halsey posted this statement to her Instagram which supported Taylor’s actions.       

                        

                  

        

                “Not only are we looking at an awful business move … but this is just mean. This is punishment. This is hoping to silence her from speaking about things by dangling this all over her head.”        

                  

        

                “These people are protected because they inspire complicity with fear. Banking on the illusion that people will not stand up for her. That the world will say she is overreacting.”       

                  

                      

                “You’re barking up the wrong tree. It is her grace and patience in these moments that make her Artist of the Decade.”       

  

      

                      

    

    

                  

                      

                Halsey also posted a snippet of her singing along to “Mean”, which is one of Taylor’s songs.

                In response, fans have been praising Halsey for her openness and honesty in supporting her friend.

                While others have called out the silence of other artists in the music industry.       

  

      

               

          

            

It’s been over 4 hours since Taylor’s post and Halsey is the ONLY major artist that has spoken up for her. Where are her “friends”? Her collaborators? Why is the music industry so silent on this issue?
