Scooter Braun is showing love to his girlfriend, Sydney Sweeney.
“I’ve met an extraordinary woman, kind and generous and smart, and real and down to earth,” Braun, 44, gushed over Sweeney, 28, in an interview on the “Second Thought With Suzy Weiss” podcast on Thursday, May 28.
Although the music manager did not mention the Euphoria actress by name, Braun said that finding love with Sweeney has been “one of the biggest surprises ever.”
Braun was asked if he’s been watching the latest season of HBO’s Euphoria, which stars Sweeney, and was effusive about her acting talents.
“I am catching it. I’m biased … I like it. I think there’s been an incredible performance by a certain actress,” he shared.
Braun and Sweeney were first linked last summer when they were spotted spending time together in Italy ahead of Lauren Sánchez and Jeff Bezos’ June 2025 wedding.
Sweeney hard launched her romance with Braun via Instagram earlier in May, sharing photos of them looking cozy at the Stagecoach country music festival. She followed up that post with a minute-long montage of sweet couple moments posted via her Instagram Stories later in May.
“They are the real deal, and their relationship has become very serious,” a source exclusively told Us Weekly in April. The source added that “people around them thought that this would be just a fling, but they are committed.”
The Housemaid actress “really appreciates Scooter’s support with all her projects,” the source added. “[She] loves hearing his feedback.”
Braun, meanwhile, is “emotionally invested in her career and wants the best for her,” the insider said. The insider said Sweeney finds Braun’s interest in her career “very endearing and feels loved and appreciated by him.”
“They are slowly integrating their families and blending their lives, making the relationship more serious,” the source told Us. “Sydney is a hopeless romantic at heart and likes being in a committed relationship.”
During Thursday’s podcast episode, Braun also reflected on his public feud with Taylor Swift following his purchase of Big Machine Label Group, through which he gained control of the master recordings for Swift’s first six albums.
The bad blood between Taylor Swift and Scooter Braun has inspired song lyrics, forced celebrities to take sides and incurred the wrath of Swifties. The drama came to a head in June 2019 when it was announced that Braun’s media company, Ithaca Holdings, had acquired Scott Borchetta’s Big Machine Label Group for $300 million. Through […]
“[I] went from being like, loved and appreciated for over a decade to literally a villain the next night. I don’t want to go into that, but I will say something that will really sum it up that I don’t know if I’ve ever really said,” Braun said “I don’t know Taylor Swift. I think I’ve met her in my life three times.”
“I think I spoke to her, really, once for like more than two minutes. But it was a very nice conversation. And beyond that, nothing ever,” he claimed. “And then the three years prior to us buying Big Machine, she and I had no contact. I think it was two years. The party was like two years earlier or three years earlier, and then never had any contact through the whole thing. So I’m just as confused that this is part of my life as you are. But, I choose to learn and grow from it.”
