Rihanna Could Stand Trial For "S&M" Copyright Claims [Photos]

Rihanna, Def Jam Sued Over “S&M” Video

Rihanna and her label Def Jam Music must face litigation over the pop star's “S&M” video, which fashion photographer David LaChapelle claims unlawfully depicts a number of his copyrighted works.

LaChapelle alleges the video's director Melina Matsoukas was told by Ri Ri's camp to make a "LaChapelle-esque music video,” even using his prints to story board the shots.

After the video's initial release in January a suit followed on February 14.

The “Man Down” singer's camp issued a motion to dismiss in April, but U.S. District Judge Shira Scheindlin recently concluded in each instance of accused copyright infringement that the concepts were not protectable, but the execution was.

The number of similarities was enough for Scheindlin to allow the lawsuit to continue.

According to the court order, the defense argued if they did use the photographs, it was to "critic[ize] how Rihanna is treated by the press and comment on her relationship with the media."

"Commenting on and criticizing Rihanna's treatment by the media is unrelated to the photographs and does not require copying protectable (sic) elements of LaChapelle's work," Judge Scheindlin countered.

LaChapelle also sued producer Los Angeles-based Black Dog Films and UMG Recordings, the corporate parent of Def Jam.

The two sides will meet Aug. 10.

Photographer sues Rihanna over video images

David LaChapelle says singer copied his work for use in 'S&M'

NEW YORK — Pop star Rihanna's lurid and brightly colored music video "S&M" was "directly derived" from pictures taken by prominent U.S. fashion photographer David LaChapelle, he said in a lawsuit made public on Monday.

LaChapelle, who has shot celebrities for magazines such as Rolling Stone, GQ and Vanity Fair, said "the music video is directly derived from and substantially similar to the LaChapelle works."

Rihanna, 22, has sold over 25 million albums worldwide and dominated music charts in the U.S. with singles such as "Umbrella" and "What's my name." The single "S&M", however, has fizzled on the charts, and the video has been banned in some countries for its sexual content.

In the suit, LaChapelle said Rihanna had appropriated eight of his images into the video, such as a shot where she is shown in profile against a blue background with a piece of candy on her tongue.

LaChapelle said Rihanna's video copied the "composition, total concept, feel, tone, mood, theme, colors, props, settings, decors, wardrobe and lighting" of his work.

He is suing for unspecified damages. A spokeswoman for Rihanna did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Someone forgot to tell Keri Hilson that all rights to hotpants/leotard-as-performance-wear are now jointly the property of Beyonce and Lady Gaga — who periodically loan them out to Pink — that is, when she’s not diving head first into the cement floor of football coliseums while attempting to perform unnatural acrobatic stunts above thousands of people that even the Cirque crazies wouldn’t sign off on.

In other words, no one who is neither Beyonce nor Mother Monster (or the Pink Beast) should ever again walk onto a stage wearing anything that even remotely resembles the leotard Justin Timberlake gamely adorned on SNL in 2009 during a skit about the making of Beyonce’s “Single Ladies” video. (See video below.)

That said, hotpants or leotards and tied-up-front Tee Shirts or not, I still don’t feel like I’m doing any favors for Miss Keri Baby by posting the video below.

Hilson performed what her reps are calling the second official single from sophomore album No Boys Allowed after a press conference in New York last night held by Jimmy Iovine and Dr. Dre to promote Dre’s new line of headphones, Beats By Dre [Source: VIBE.com].

(Say ‘Dre’ again…. Dre.)

VIBE also reported that “Pretty Girl Rock” is scheduled to debut on iTunes Oct. 12. Of course, No Boys Allowed still hasn’t been assigned a release date. Still.

Despite what’s been a hopeful week for Hilson’s second go at Going Solo thanks to that “Coconut” leak, I now call this one in the DOA column.

Thus, consider this the last time you hear about that album from me.

Unless/Until, of course, something really big happens. ;-)

(Really big.)

The dream is over

Terius ‘The dream’ Nash is the producer of eee eee hooks for Rihanna and J Holiday. He gotta be dreamin’ if he thinks he came up with an exceptionally innovative vocal trend as obviously can do no ’(s)hit’ without Zombie-originated donkeeeeyyying. He’s either brainless or at least earless. We’re here to violently make this dream soon be over.

The dream, ‘Shawty is a 10′ (2007) an’ The dream ft. Rihanna, ’Livin a lie’ (2007) in a genious eee eee eee patch

Petey Pablo (’Freak a leak’, 2005) should make Dream’s life a nightmare 4 stealing his name-enumerating catch-phrase:

Donkey pop (photo source: ZooNet.org)

Please, stop the music!!!

Regular stuff: let’s open the track with well-known syllabelization in similar notes - all put over ripped rhytms (Adamski ‘Killer’). It seems that 2007 has brought two wonderful tracks over-inspired by Mamas & Papas classic:

Rihanna, ‘Don’t stop the music’ and Enrique Iglesias, ‘Tired of being sorry’ (2007) both dream of reachin’ the status of Mama & Papas, ‘California dreamin’ (1966):

Rihanna - Don’t Stop the Music (2007) traditionally (check Ri-yo post) uses melodies by Madonna - La Isla Bonita (1986)

Verse rihannad from ‘Feel it’ by The Tamperer feat. Maya which U all must have danced to back in 1998:

(Not) yummy

Ri-Yo

Ne-Yo, Rihanna Comment

There’s nothing easier as well more despicable in (re)making music than starting a song with a recognisible motif from a 80s smash.

Yet if U lack any spot of creativity and each good word (photo) about you is paid upfront by your label, it’s the only thing to do to stay afloat. Listen how Rihanna/Ne-yo embrace this shady rule.

Rihanna/Ne-yo, ’Hate that I love you’ (2007) celebrates others’ hookydays Madonna, ‘Holiday’ (1983)

when a copy-cat-hit-wonder (Rihanna) meets up with a one-hit-wonder (Ne-yo) in a studio the song they uselessly breed gotta be a mix of stolen hooks and hooks from the only hit U ever luckily came up with. So sick:

Ne-yo (Rihanna) couldn’t escape the only hooks he’s ever sung in verse-part of ‘So sick’ (2006)

..and the chorus:

Rihanna suddenly decides to take what her songs are (crap)

eee eee eee / ooo ooo ooo

Hardly has Rihanna monsterously copied Dolores’ (of The Cranberries) grand 90′ eee eee eee hook, yet another black zombie (J Holiday) tries to establish a hit by xeroin’ her xeroed ways. That’s what we call a swift cat. He must have copy-written the song ‘Put you to bed’ still in bed immediately after (or while!) hearing Rihanna on the radio. Eeee, J Holiday, we advise taking permanent holidays from singin’ !

The Cranberries, ’Zombie’ (1994) >>>>>>>> eee eee eee in Rihanna’s ’Umbrella’ (2007) >>>>>>>> beeed beeed beeeed in J Holiday’s

J Holiday also likes another vowel:

J Holiday - Put You to Bed (2006) vs. Robin Thicke feat. Pharrell Williams -Wanna Love U Girl (2006)

Shut up and hide

It was a blue Friday for us to run on Ruhanna’s new single: ‘Be quiet and drive’ (see Deftones for this one). The funny (scary) part here is that we haven’t yet come across any official confirmation of ‘Blue Monday’ sample rights being actually purchased by Rihanna!!! No references either in the album sleeve, MTV interviews or official sites (the only song with no credits!!!! TheCopyCat.biz is smelling up a huge lawsuit in da air… Listen to desperate barbadian attempts to make a contemporary (s)hit out of 1000000 times covered smasher (that made it only to 17 on Billboard charts (sic!) .

Rihanna copy-cat momma

’One of the most beautiful women in the world’ (judge yourself) doesn’t use umbrella when it comes to vocal concepts falling down from the sky. She drinks them and spits them out in the studio claiming she has ‘progressed vocally’. We can hear the echos of the superhit Hotel California as well, as hell. Can’t u? Oh, almost forgot, the beat ripped by some genius producer ‘just like this’ too.

Listen to Rihanna under the umbrella of different tracks:
