“Representatives for the writers of the Britney Spears song “Do Something” have written to the producers of K-pop star Lee Hyo-lee saying “parts” of the title song in Lee’s latest album “Get ya” are plagiarized. While this is not the first time the Korean pop industry has been accused of pilfering, it is the first time the copyright holder has formally complained.”

Personally, I can’t understand why the “songwriters” would complain. I mean, Britney Spears’ music sucks! I would think they would be flattered that anyone would want to copy her music. To be fair, Hyori’s music sucks too. Let’s be honest. Excluding the teen-age girl market, the reason for Britney and Hyori’s popularity is not because of the quality of their music. It’s because of the way they shake it on stage. Take that away and you’ve got nothing. Lighten up Britney. Do you really want to deny us this? (Note: Turn the sound down.)
