Dua Lipa lawyer sets out arguments for dismissing Levitating song theft lawsuit

Dua Lipa and Camila Cabello had a sweet interaction over the weekend at Bogotá, Colombia. The two singers were spotted watching Coldplay’s last performance in the South American country, during their Music of the Spheres Tour.Coldplay also surprised fans in Colombia, performing one of Dua’s hit songs ‘New Rules,’ as the fan-favorite singer would perform in Bogotá a day later, however people in the audience were not aware that she was also watching them onstage.Fui al concierto de Coldplay y me pasó la cosa más hermosa del mundo: tener cerquita a Dua Lipa y Camila Cabello.

Dua Lipa has admitted that she feels more in “control” on her forthcoming new album than ever before.The singer’s follow-up to her 2020 smash ‘Future Nostalgia’ was first teased back in January, when Lipa said she had “done a big chunk of writing” for the new record.In March, she then revealed that the album was “50 per cent done” and is “starting to take shape”.Now, she has spoken further of the new record, telling Vogue Australia: “As I’m writing my new album, I feel even more liberated in a completely different way. And even more in control than I thought.”Asked what liberation means to her, she added: “Freedom, especially as a woman, means to be able to take things into your own hands, to have control over the things that you believe in.

Chris Brown’s lawyers had a productive week last week with not one but two song-theft lawsuits settled. Having brought to an end a dispute with music firm Greensleeves in relation to his 2017 track ‘Privacy’, the Brown legal team also told the courts that a separate lawsuit in relation to 2019’s ‘No Guidance’ was being dropped.Singer Braindon Cooper and producer Timothy Valentine sued Brown last year claiming that ‘No Guidance’ rips off their 2016 track ‘I Love Your Dress’.

Dua Lipa is once again showing she is an honorary Latina, after collaborating with Bad Bunny and J Balvin, and showing her skills in Spanish on a viral video with her Venezuelan friends. Now the singer is sharing her dance moves, enjoying a fun night and showing her dance moves to the rhythm of Marc Anthony.

Legal reps for Sam Smith and Normani have again called for a song theft lawsuit in relation to their song ‘Dancing With A Stranger’ to be dismissed. An amended version of that lawsuit, they argue, doesn’t address the issues they previously raised about the song-theft claim.Smith and Normani – and various other parties linked to their hit – were sued earlier this year by artist Jordan Vincent and producer Christopher Miranda who claim that ‘Dancing With A Stranger’ rips off their 2015 song ‘Dancing With Strangers’.On top of having nearly the same title and a very similar accompanying promo video to the earlier song, Smith and Normani’s ‘Dancing With A Stranger’ – it was alleged – has the same “hook, chorus, lyrics, and musical composition” as ‘Dancing With Strangers’.“It is beyond any real doubt that Smith, Normani and the other defendants copied plaintiff’s work”, the lawsuit then claimed.

Dua Lipa looked angelic in white. The fashion icon was photographed in a sheer white dress, perfect for the iconic wedding of Simon Porte Jacquemus and Marco Maestri in the south of France.The successful singer, who recently made headlines after being compared to Cher, wore matching underwear and a thigh-high slit, going viral for her stunning look, as she arrived at the star-studded celebration, which took place at the local town hall and continued at Château de Bonneval.Dua had the perfect ensemble for the occasion, paying tribute to Jacquemus by choosing a design from the 2022 Ready-To-Wear collection.The 27-year-old musician paired the floor-length dress with strappy nude heels, a black handbag and big white earrings.Fans of the singer had mixed feelings about her look, with one person on social media writing,“If Dua Lipa would show up to my wedding like this … I would simply cry myself to sleep,” while someone else commented, “I thought you weren’t supposed to wear white to other people’s weddings?”One thing is for certain, Dua looked as stunning as ever with the incredible skin-tight design.

Dua Lipa‘s lawyers have made their opening statements in a copyright infringement claim brought against the singer, saying she had no prior exposure to two songs named in the lawsuit, and moving for the case to be dismissed.In March, songwriting duo L. Russell Brown and Sandy Linzer alleged that Lipa “duplicated” the “signature” opening melody for her 2020 single ‘Levitating’ from their 1979 song ‘Wiggle And A Giggle All Night’ and 1980 song ‘Don Diablo’.The plantiff’s complaint argued that Lipa had previously said she “deliberately emulated prior eras” to create a “retro” sound.

Cher has reacted to Dua Lipa being called the “Cher of our generation” on social media, sparking a conversation around the ethics of comparing younger artists to older ones who are still active.Earlier this week, a Twitter user shared a now-deleted tweet with side-by-side images of Cher and Lipa. According to Newsweek, the photo of Lipa showed her look at the 2021 Grammys next to Cher at the same awards in 1974 – both images showed them wearing visually similar, sparkling outfits that make prominent use of a butterfly design. “Dua Lipa, the Cher of our generation,” they captioned the post.Another user quote-retweeted the post, writing, “So much truth in one Tweet.” They tagged both artists, to which Cher responded somewhat shadily.

Cher isn't sure how to feel about being compared to Dua Lipa.

Cher is responding to a popular tweet regarding Dua Lipa, and fans are going wild with her answer.

A post shared by Marie Osmond (@marieosmond)"This week I surprised my husband with a couple of days at a mountain resort for his birthday! It was wonderful to watch him get excited to ride his mountain bike over all the incredible trails while testing his physical prowess with some very challenging terrain," she said. "I, on the other hand, was excited to drive the car over hills to the outlet mall, testing MY physical prowess with some challenging shopping terrain!"The singing icon, 62, continued her lengthy caption by referencing several proverbs. "As I'm getting older, I want my kids and grandkids to know how happy I am.

There’s only one Goddess of Pop! Cher shut down a fan who compared her to Dua Lipa with a playful reply.

Cher is not giving up her title any time soon. The iconic singer took to Twitter to respond to a comment comparing her to Dua Lipa, as she didn’t seem to agree with the statement.An online user wrote, “Dua Lipa, the Cher of our generation,” posting a video of the 27-year-old musician at the Grammy Awards. But Cher was having none of it, as she subtly threw some shade, with the question, “How many years are in a generation.”The comparison caused many mixed reactions among fans of Dua and Cher.

People can’t quite tell how Cher feels about Dua Lipa.

for her famous friends' nuptials over the weekend: a sheer white dress. The international attended the A-lister wedding of Jacquemus founder Simon Porter Jacquemus and his partner Marco Maestri, which took place last weekend in Charleval, France. She wore an all-white look consisting of a halter-neck white lingerie set underneath a sheer white floor-length gown with cap sleeves, a thigh-high slit, and beautiful 3-D flower detail. Her long, black hair was worn straight and middle parted, while she accessorized with mismatched statement earrings, one star shaped and the other a circular hoop, and a large black leather bag with a twisted rope handle, plus simple nude sandals. It's an outfit choice that traditionally might have been the ultimate no-no—according to , for instance, should avoid white (or cream or black), and take care not to “overshadow the bride.” We could totally make a pun right now that Dua Lipa was simply making “New Rules” for herself—however, the truth is that in context her look is absolutely perfect and appropriate for the occasion.This content can also be viewed on the site it from.Not only is the outfit by the groom himself (a look from Jacquemus' autumn 2022 ready-to-wear collection), it was also in keeping with other wedding guests like models Didi Stone and Mica Argañaraz who also wore white—clearly this was a pre-arranged dress code.
