Scooter Braun manages Justin Bieber and Ariana Grande
Scooter Braun is a talent manager best known for working with celebrity clients like Justin Bieber, Ariana Grande, Demi Lovato, and J Balvin. Braun has cultivated the careers of several stars and catapulted them to the heights of fame, making a fortune for both himself and his clients.
He once worked with Kanye West, who famously tweeted, “I no longer have a manager. I can’t be managed” after parting ways with Braun. Braun is also known for his feud with Taylor Swift after he acquired the master recordings of her first six albums in 2019. Swift posted a scathing message on Tumblr in which she accused Braun of “incessant, manipulative bullying” and claimed she was never given a chance to purchase her masters.
Since Braun manages so many celebrity clients, fans may be curious about the talent manager’s net worth. According to Celebrity Net Worth, Braun has almost more wealth than Bieber and Grande combined, with an estimated net worth of $400 million.
