Ariana Grande has decided to change her management, bidding farewell to Scooter Braun and his management company, HYBE, sources with direct knowledge reveal to TMZ.
Ariana has enjoyed a lengthy professional relationship with Scooter, who has been her manager for years and counts her as one of his top clients.
This decision follows a pattern of high-profile exits from Scooter’s roster, including Demi Lovato and Idina Menzel earlier this year. Notably, Ariana has even unfollowed Scooter on social media, suggesting that the parting might not be on the most amicable terms.
Scooter Braun had previously announced his intention to step back from day-to-day management responsibilities. Reports indicated negotiations with various clients, including Ariana, for a potential restructuring of their professional relationship. However, Ariana has confirmed her departure.
While there have been whispers about the possibility of Justin Bieber also leaving, our sources indicate that Justin is still bound by his contract with Scooter’s company. Negotiations for a potential new arrangement are reportedly ongoing. As for Ariana, there might be an existing contractual commitment with Braun, leaving the outcome uncertain.
Ariana Grande now stands as a significant figure in the music industry, and her choice of a new manager is anticipated with great interest. The industry will undoubtedly watch closely to see who takes on the responsibility of guiding her career moving forward.
