Ariana Grande

Ariana Grande is the latest star to be taken to court in America accused of copyright infringement.
According to the BBC, the singer is being accused of ripping off a track which was released two years ago. Songwriter Alex Greggs says her David Guetta tune One Last Time has the same chorus as his EDM tune, Takes All Night, which he wrote for Skye Stevens.
According to entertainment website TMZ, Alex Greggs says Grande copied his music as well.
He’s reportedly suing for a cut of the profits from the 23-year-old star’s track, which was written by David Guetta, Savan Kotecha, Giorgio Tuinfort, Rami Yacoub and Carl Falk. Alex Greggs has worked with the likes of Lady Gaga, Justin Timberlake and Michael Jackson in the past.
Australian band Safia accused Grande of ripping off their video last year.
The trio suggested on Facebook that similarities between the US star’s clip for One Last Time and their song You Are The One “might just be a coincidence.”
There’s no response yet from Grande or the songwriters.
Grande’s case follows a string of singers being taken to court for alleged copyright infringement in America.
On Monday it was revealed that Demi Lovato was being sued over her song Stars, a bonus track on her 2015 album, Confident.
