Sydney Sweeney’s relationship with the controversial Scooter Braun is raising eyebrows

Sydney Sweeney’s new romance with controversial music figure Scooter Braun is said to have caused concern among her friends.

Radar Online reported that the 28-year-old American actress is romantically involved with the 44-year-old businessman, investor and record executive after rejecting top Hollywood stars such as Orlando Bloom, Tom Brady and Ben Affleck.

Sweeney’s decision has caused concern among her inner circle because Braun is one of the most hated figures in the music world.

For those who don’t know, the Euphoria The star and RBMG Records founder were first spotted out and about in Venice in June this year. Some reliable sources have claimed that they have dated many times in the past and are completely immersed in their “casual” relationship.

The insider told the report: “Sydney says she doesn’t care, she’s having fun and people have got it wrong because Scooter is a cool, laid-back guy.”

“But friends say he’s a wolf in sheep’s clothing and you only have to look at his past to see that,” the source said.

Notably, Braun bought Big Machine Records in 2019, a former Taylor Swift label that produced her first six albums, which ultimately drew her ire. The pop sensation was furious and called him a “relentless, manipulative” bully.

The insider urged: “Taylor and Justin and many others would swear it’s pure and anyone interested in dating should seriously reconsider because they are not to be trusted.”

“They say it has to be avoided with a ten-foot pole,” the source observed.

However, Sweeney says she “has every right to see who she wants, and no one wants to take that away from her, but this has all the makings of a disaster. People think she’s making a huge mistake even hanging out with him.”

“Scooter has such a bad reputation and the feeling is that Sydney could do a lot better,” concluded the insider.
