Taylor Swift has announced that she might not be able to perform at the American Music Awards.

The US singer-songwriter planned to perform a medley of her hits at the music awards - where she's due to be honoured with the Artist of the Decade award.

But now she's taken to Twitter telling fans saying she's not allowed to do this after being stopped from performing her old hits by her old record company - Big Machine Label Group.

On Twitter she said 'Scott Borchetta and Scooter Braun have now said that I'm not allowed to perform my old songs on television because they claim that would be re-recording my music before I'm allowed to next year'.

This is an ongoing issue between Taylor and her music managers who now own the rights to her first five albums.

Taylor said the managers will only allow her to perform if she agrees 'to not re-record copycat versions of my songs next year' and that 'I need to stop talking about him and Scooter Braun'.

Taylor also said her Netflix documentary is now on hold, along with any other recorded events that she's playing until November 2020, because they too feature old songs she recorded when she was at Big Machine.

Scott Borchetta and Scooter Braun's company, Big Machine, issued a statement on their website in reaction to Taylor's claims.

They deny Taylor's allegations, saying her social media statements are based on "false information".

They say they've tried to initiate conversations to resolve the issue, adding:

"At no point did we say Taylor could not perform on the AMAs or block her Netflix special.

In fact, we do not have the right to keep her from performing live anywhere."

Taylor is standing tall on this one - saying she is not going to be told what to do by her music managers. She believes that by sharing her story, she's able to help future artists avoid a similar fate.

Taylor is now urging fans to let Scott and Scooter know about how they feel about this to help spread awareness of the issue and to help her perform her own music.

Fans are getting on board by showing their support through the hashtags #IStandWithTaylor and #WeStandWithTaylor.

But Big Machine argue Taylor owes the company millions of dollars.
