Watch Taylor Swift call out Scooter Braun in her latest acceptance speech, here.
that will likely flood all of our feeds by weekend’s end. But before she celebrates, Swift marked the occasion by looking back on what she’s learned from a career that started in earnest when she was in her early teens.
Swift was on hand to accept her Woman of the Decade award during Billboard’s 2019 Women in Music event on Thursday, and delivered a powerful 15-minute long speech in which she emphatically reminded everyone that she’s not a teenager anymore. Far from it. “I’ve seen a lot,” Swiftof her decades-spanning career. Her success, she pointed out, was often attributed to “a male producer or co-writer" working behind the scenes.
"In the last 10 years, I have watched as women in this industry are criticised and measured up to each other and picked at for their bodies, their romantic lives, their fashion," she explained. "Have you ever heard someone say about a male artist, 'I really like his songs, but I don't know what it is —there's just something about him I don't like?' No—that criticism is reserved for us.
Swift added that Braun “never contacted” her or her team to discuss the sale, and that she’s “fairly certain” he knew how she would feel about it. “Let me just say that the definition of toxic male privilege in our industry is people saying ‘but he’s always been nice to me’ when I’m raising valid concerns about artists and their right to own their music,” Swift added. “And of course he’s nice to you — if you’re in this room, you have something he needs.
