Kelly Clarkson encouraged Taylor Swift to be stronger and stand a little taller while fighting for ownership of her masters — but her message didn’t sit well with Scooter Braun.In 2019, the American Idol alum, 41, told Swift, 33, via Twitter that she should “go in & re-record all the songs” she didn’t own the masters to amid her dispute with Braun, 42, and Big Machine Records.

When asked about the tweet during her upcoming SiriusXM Town Hall with Andy Cohen, Clarkson hinted that Braun wasn’t pleased with her advice.“I think Scooter took offense to it because we ran into each other, and I think he reached out at the time to my manager,” she confessed in a clip from the interview, which airs in full on Friday, June 23. “I was like, ‘It wasn’t anything against him.’ I just, when she came out and said that [about her albums] and I heard about it, I was like, ‘Whatever.

Like, rerecord them. Your fans will support you.’ They did.”The “Breakaway” singer clarified that Braun “didn’t say anything” to her directly about the tweet. “I don’t know what happened or what was said, but I think he thought I was attacking him. … I didn’t even know all the information,” she said. “All I heard was, ‘Man, I really want to own [my work].'”Clarkson explained that she understood where Swift was coming from in her battle for ownership rights. “She writes everything.

That’s the thing,” she continued. “It’s like, if you have the opportunity and you choose to not pay that much money, that’s one thing, but to not have the opportunity to own something that is really important to you … I knew it was important to her.”While the Voice coach
