“So just be sure…before you take me to court, ’cause I’m a Scorpio, b—h!” Katy shouted on stage, according to a video a fan took during the show.
If you don’t remember, a rapper named Marcus Gray sued Katy in 2014, accusing her of ripping off his song “Joyful Noise” on “Dark Horse.” Jurors later awarded him the verdict at first, but a judge overturned that decision in 2020, saying that the rhythm she allegedly copied was too simple for copyright protection.
Katy Perry also recently revealed that everyone’s been singing one of her hit songs wrong.

Katy Perry is capable of anything and everything.
Katy Perry has won a copyright infringement case against a rapper who claimed she stole his music to make her hit single ‘Dark Horse’.On Thursday (March 10) a federal appeals court refused to reinstate the original $2.8million verdict against Perry.In 2014, when Marcus Gray, who performs as Flame, alleged that the pop singer had copied his track ‘Joyful Noise’, jurors sided with him. However, in 2020 a judge overturned the original verdict.At the time, the ‘Stairway to Heaven’ copyright ruling was used as a precedent for overruling the initial verdict, noting that the notes Perry repeated during the song, were too simple to justify copyright protection.
Katy Perry has won an appeals battle over her hit Dark Horse, and will no longer have to pay $2. 8m (£2. 1m) to a rapper who claimed she stole his song.
The Ninth Circuit appeals court in the US yesterday sided with Katy Perry in the big old ‘Dark Horse’ song theft case. The musical elements Perry’s hit has in common with earlier track ‘Joyful Noise’ were “commonplace” and therefore not protected by copyright in isolation, judges concluded.
Katy Perry scored another decisive victory in court.
Ethan Shanfeld A federal appeals court ruled in Katy Perry’s favor in the “Dark Horse” copyright lawsuit against Christian rapper Marcus Gray.Gray, whose stage name is Flame, first sued Perry in 2014, claiming her hit “Dark Horse” was substantially similar to his song “Joyful Noise.” In 2019, a Los Angeles jury found Perry liable for infringement, but the verdict was overturned a year later when a judge ruled that the eight-note “ostinato” Perry allegedly copied lacked the “quantum of originality” to warrant copyright protection.Gray appealed the decision in October 2020, writing in a brief about the incriminating similarity of timbre between the songs, and arguing against the musicologists’ use of databases of melodies to determine instances of similarities in previous works. On March 10, 2022, the Ninth Circuit affirmed the District Court’s overturning the initial jury verdict.

It seems Emily Atack is attempting to dye her hair every pastel colour going before we hit Easter.The Inbetweeners star only just unveiled a peachy pink colour last week, but has already decided to switch up her look again to a pastel purple. It’s clear, however, Emily hasn’t gone for a permanent colour change this time, as the shiny lilac hue is definitely the result of a wig.The whole look, which is meant to mimic Katy Perry’s iconic California Gurls get-up, was for a new episode of Celebrity Juice.
