Brazilian popstar accused Madonna of plagiarism for 'Give Me All Your Luvin' single
A Brazilian popstar named Joao Brasil recently has claimed that Pop Queen Madonna plagiarised one of his tracks for the chorus of her latest single "Give Me All Your Luvin" which features Nicki Minaj and M.I.A, off upcoming album M.D.N.A. The cheerleader-themed track features a chant-y style chorus, a little bit similar to the chorus Joao Brasil uses in his own track "L.O.V.E Banana" – a little too similar for the Brazilian star's record label.
"I still don't understand what happened," Joao Brasil told Jam. "I'm a huge fan of hers. If it's plagiarism, then even better. She is always at the cutting edge of music, so it's a good sign about what I do. It's in their [the record label's] hands, they're looking at how to proceed and what they can do. But personally I don't want to do anything. The last thing I need in my life is a fight with Madonna!" he added.
Meanwhile, Madonna has lined-up three massive shows across the UK and Ireland. If you want to see the star live, check the dates and details below and find yourself a pair of the best-priced tickets available.
