Taylor Swift Dad’s Full Leaked Email Detailing How He Paid Millions to Make Taylor a Superstar: ‘Her dad is a mastermind’ 

Scott Swift’s full email from the past has been leaked where he spoke candidly about making Taylor a star and the amount of money he has poured into Taylor’s career.
Getting proven right about Taylor Swift’s dad, Scott Swift being a control freak and a ‘know-it-all’ wasn’t on our 2024 bingo card but we’ll take it!

Taylor Swift’s old manager, Dan Dymtrow is suing Taylor and her family for incorrectly compensating him during the early years of Taylor’s career. This has been taken to court and Dan Dymtrow has sent in this email written to him by Taylor Swift’s dad, Scott Swift, which now makes this a public document.

This leaked email gives so much insight and detail into celebrity life and how almost everything is calculative behind the scenes.

It also gives an insight into Taylor’s life which is shocking because we know how much privacy Taylor likes to have about her REAL life. The “Taylor Swift” you get from her lyrics has done a good job of driving you away from knowing anything real about her personal life.

This is how we described Taylor’s dad in our November 2023 Hollywood In Parts post.

Take note of how specific my source describes him to me.

“It’s not the first time I heard weird things about him and how controlling he is over Taylor’s career and image”

“Taylor’s dad, Scott has had a hand in everything Taylor’s done since she started her career.”

“He also would constantly put his two cents about Taylor and the life directions she should take.”

“[Scott’s] always around because he shoves himself in her business/personal aspects. He thinks he needs to ‘scope things out’ so he’s always in the back pulling strings.”

These are very niche ways of describing Taylor’s dad, and they’re important to note because it’s what you constantly see when reading his leaked email to Dan. So I did all of us a favor and read the email.

So let’s break down this 5-page email (yes—it really is 5 whole pages)

Taylor Swift Grew Up Wealthy and Privileged

Before we start, nothing I say in this post is going to take away from Taylor’s hard work and dedication towards her career. This email will shed a different light on the music industry and how nothing is as natural as it seems, but it doesn’t take away from her hard work, dedication, or love for music.

I am not a Swifie, so I have never once thought to care to see how Taylor started her career, but one thing I do know is that Taylor never presented herself as someone who grew up wealthy.

It was always, “I grew up on a Christmas Tree Farm in Pennsylvania and got bullied in school” and that was it. Never did she mention that she grew up very privileged with her dad bragging about being part of the 1%.

Don’t take it from me, take it from Taylor’s dad who said to Dan, “Keep in mind that I manage $270 million but more importantly, 249 relationships with families at Merrill in a terrible market… I am in the top 1% of all brokers at the most prestigious investment firm in the world. I manage staff, I manage my client’s lives, their money, I have moved my family to Nashville, cleaned out two houses, sold one.”

Right off the bat, you learn two things about Scott Swift, 1- he thinks highly of himself, and 2- he has a lot of money.

So much so that he brags later on in the email that he was able to pick up Taylor, her brother Austin, and their mother Andrea Swift and move them to Nashville for Taylor’s career, a move that easily took $200k.

He mentioned that in the email when he said, “Who made enough money that if we have to take off across the country we will be okay? Who hired staff ahead of time so that we could move to Nashville? The idiot that lives with Andrea!!!!!”

It’s such an unhinged email, I don’t know whether to laugh or be shocked about how odd Scott Swift is. Reading this email made me understand Taylor so much better because how could anyone turn out normal with their dad and mom this controlling?

Just beware, there is going to be a lot of Andrea talk in this email, where he clearly has a huge problem with his wife, and he keeps saying the phrase, “Don’t laugh. You’ll be a dad someday.”

I’m not joking he says it like 7 times.

??? He’s so odd

But let’s continue on the topic of privilege that I didn’t realize Taylor had.

He goes into detail about inviting Scott Sanford out to their Nashville lake and I was shocked reading about all the things he owned like jet skies and boats. He also says that while hanging out with Scott Sanford he promised him to join the Nashville Duck Drop ONLY if he allowed Taylor to sing at the event.

He says, “I invite Scott Sanford out to the lake… he wants us to corral ducks for Nashville’s Duck Drop. I agree to corral ducks if he lets Taylor be the talent at Riverfront Park for the Duck Drop. I take my boat towing, two jet skis through the locks, 35 miles to Nashville. I herd and then have to pick up 15,000 little bastard rubber ducks to the point that my arms are falling off while my daughter is singing.”

Clearly, he has connections and money because he continues to brag about how in everything he did, he made sure to bring Taylor’s promised career with him. Such as making everyone he knows listen to her music.

In the midst of his, “I did everything for Taylor” rant he said, “Who has made every single client listen to Taylor’s latest song before we went over their financial plan?”

Imagine just trying to talk business and your banker is playing you his daughter’s music.
