The deal was valued at around R$ 950 million, equivalent to US$ 180 million.Of that total, R$ 871 million, or US$ 165 million, relates to songs the singer wrote before her marriage to Dan Bernad.

Sia and Dan Bernad were married for less than three years.The deal puts Sia alongside other pop stars who have sold the rights to their catalogs in recent years.

The deal covered more than 290 songs, including “Baby”, “Sorry” and “Love Yourself”.Also in 2023, Katy Perry sold the rights to her five albums released between 2008 and 2020 for R$ 1.19 billion, equivalent to US$ 225 million, to Litmus Music.
