Stop the presses, sound the glitter cannons, and alert every Swiftie with a pulse—Taylor Swift has officially Thanos-snapped her way back into ownership of her own music. And Scooter Braun? Well, he’s just… vibing.

Let’s rewind, shall we?

Back in 2019, the Swiftie universe imploded when Scooter “I-own-your-teenage-diary” Braun’s company, Ithaca Holdings, scooped up Big Machine Records—aka the vault holding Taylor’s first six albums. It was like someone walked into her musical childhood home and bought it without asking. Cue: drama, diary entries, and a million angry fan edits on TikTok.

Taylor was, understandably, not thrilled. In fact, she compared it to being blindsided by a pop villain in a surprise plot twist no one wanted. She said she never got a fair shot at buying her own masters. And as far as music ownership heartbreaks go, this one was basically the Grammy version of a breakup ballad.

Fast-forward to 2020: Scooter sold Tay’s catalog to Shamrock Capital for a casual $300 million (because who doesn’t spend that much on a breakup souvenir?). And now—hold on to your friendship bracelets—Shamrock just sold the whole shebang back to Taylor. Queen behavior only.

Taylor took to her typewriter (read: Instagram Notes) to thank Shamrock with the grace of a thousand Grammys, saying:

“I will be forever grateful to everyone at Shamrock Capital for being the first people to ever offer this to me. The way they’ve handled every interaction we’ve had has been honest, fair, and respectful.”

She even joked she might get a shamrock tattooed on her forehead—which, let’s be honest, would be a serve. Add a butterfly next to it and we’re in full *Debut Era* renaissance.

And what about Scooter, you ask? The man, the myth, the mogul?

He popped his head up like a groundhog on Reputation Day and said to The Hollywood Reporter:

“I’m happy for her.”

That’s it. No tears, no “look what you made me do,” not even a passive-aggressive playlist drop. Just a clean little sentence that smells faintly of PR cologne.

This is a far cry from 2019 Scooter, who was busy dodging metaphorical tomatoes after Taylor accused him of “incessant, manipulative bullying” and declared he “stripped me of my life’s work.” Yeah, it was like the musical Hunger Games—and she definitely had the bow and arrows.

As for the last two remaining re-records—Reputation and Taylor Swift (Debut)—Taylor’s keeping us on the edge of our vinyl collections. She said she’ll release them *if* fans want them. Spoiler alert: they do. We do. WE ALL DO. Even our pets want them.

So here we are. Taylor Swift owns Taylor Swift again. Scooter Braun is allegedly happy. And Swifties? They’re pre-ordering their “Property of Taylor Swift” merch in bulk.

Justice has been served, and it’s glitter-drenched with a sprinkle of poetic karma.
