At the height of Taylor Swift’s public feud with Scooter Braun after his company acquired the masters to her first six albums, Kelly Clarkson weighed in on the situation. “The Kelly Clarkson Show” host offered the multi-award-winning artist some sound advice: to rerecord her old albums.
“@taylorswift13 just a thought, U should go in & re-record all the songs that U don’t own the masters on exactly how U did them but put brand new art & some kind of incentive so fans will no longer buy the old versions,” Clarkson, 38, tweeted on July 13, 2019. “I’d buy all of the new versions just to prove a point 💁🏼”

The “American Idol” alum’s tweet has resurfaced across social media in preparation for Speak Now (Taylors Version). With the tweet making its rounds again, fans of Swift are praising Clarkson for her past advice, with one fan writing, “Everyone say thank you kelly clarkson.”
Another fan replied to Clarkson’s original tweet, writing, “this tweet has aged so well now that the re-recording is out!!!”
“‘from the vault’, Kelly you were visionary!” one fan tweeted to the singer, pointing out Clarkson’s idea to release entirely new bonus tracks.
Months after Clarkson first tweeted the suggestion that Swift rerecord her old music in order to own the masters, she further clarified her statements on “The Tonight Show” and told host Jimmy Fallon that she was inspired by her former mother-in-law, Reba McEntire.
