Taylor Swift’s  Ex-Record Label Offers Licensing Deal to American Music Awards Ahead of Decade-Spanning Performance

After Taylor Swift claimed last week that Big Machine founder Scott Borchetta and Scooter Braun were preventing her from performing her past hits during the 2019 American Music Awards, Swift’s former record label released a statement Monday that said it had “agreed to grant all licenses of their artists’ performances” on various platforms.

“The Big Machine Label Group informed Dick Clark Productions today that they have agreed to grant all licenses of their artists’ performances to stream post show and for re-broadcast on mutually approved platforms,” the statement reads. “It should be noted that recording artists do not need label approval for live performances on television of any other live media. Record label approval is only needed for contracted artists’ audio and visual recordings and in determining how those works are distributed.”

This statement comes after an earlier release in which Big Machine said it had reached a licensing agreement with American Music Awards producer Dick Clark Productions “that approves their artists’ performances to stream post show and for re-broadcast on mutually approved platforms.”

Following the release of this first statement, Dick Clark Productions released the following response: “At no time did Dick Clark Productions agree to, create, authorize or distribute a statement in partnership with Big Machine Label Group regarding Taylor Swift’s performance at the 2019 American Music Awards. Any final agreement on this matter needs to be made directly with Taylor Swift’s management team. We have no further comment.”

Tottenham Sack Head Coach Mauricio Pochettino

Tottenham Hotspurs have sacked head coach Mauricio Pochettino after five years in charge of the North London club.

Pochettino was appointed in May 2014 and led Spurs to the Champions League final last season, where they lost to Liverpool.

The 47-year-old has had a difficult start to the ongoing season with Spurs dawdling at 14th place in the Premier League.

“We were extremely reluctant to make this change,” said Spurs chairman Daniel Levy.

“It is not a decision the board has taken lightly, nor in haste. Regrettably domestic results at the end of last season and beginning of this season have been extremely disappointing.”

Kylie Jenner Sells $600 Million Majority Stake in Beauty Business

Four years after launching her inaugural lip kits, the 22-year-old billionaire is selling a majority stake in her famed beauty business.

On Monday, Coty Inc. – home to dozens of beauty brands including CoverGirl, ghd and OPI – confirmed in a press release it will be acquiring a 51 percent ownership in a partnership with Jenner for $600 million.

Per Coty Inc., the acquisition is expected to close in the summer of 2020.

Jenner was named the world’s youngest self-made billionaire of all time by Forbes earlier this year with an estimated net worth of $1 billion.

Jenner, who is the youngest and richest of the entire Kardashian-Jenner family, started her make up line in 2015 by selling $29 lipstick kits.

The kits sold out within minutes of launching – an early sign of the power of her now 270 million-plus social media following.

Jenner’s products were only sold online when it was first launched but last year the brand struck a deal to sell its goods in 1,100 Ulta Beauty stores across the U.S. She expanded her empire earlier this year with Kylie Skin – a line of moisturizers, under eye creams and facial scrubs.

Jenner brought in sales of an estimated $360 million last year, according to Forbes.

The “Lover” crooner is set to take the big stage at the upcoming American Music Awards, where she’ll be honored with the Artist of the Decade award, on Nov. 24 and she’s ready to give the performance of a lifetime.

“Taylor is humbled by being named the Artist of the Decade and had always intended to perform on the show to show her fans and the AMAs how appreciative she is over the honor, but then the latest uproar occurred with Big Machine and Scooter Braun that has since caused her to speak out and potentially change up what she was going to perform,” a source told Hollywood Life.

“A lot of that night is about her career from the past and where she is today and what she will be looking to go towards in the future,” the source continued. “It is not going to be just a regular award show performance, she wants this to be the most memorable one she has ever done. It is important that she makes a statement with her performance and her words because it is going to echo loudly in the music industry and she is ready to make a statement.”
