Jennifer Lopez Ripped Off Kat DeLuna
Not only does 41-year-old Jennifer Lopez’s new single “On the Floor” bear an uncanny resemblance to 23-year-old Kat DeLuna’s single “Party O’Clock” that was released in Europe last fall, but now so does Jennifer’s video. In a behind the scenes clip of the making of for Lopez’s music video, there are a few scenes which seem straight ripped from Kat’s. Please explain this, Gatecrasher!
When J.Lo’s video is compared to the clip for “Party O’Clock,” there are frames in which the singers look as if they dressed from the same wardrobe.
In “Party O’Clock,” DeLuna rocks leopard-print leggings and a black strapless leotard as she gyrates in a club scene.
In her video, J.Lo dons a blue leopard-print leotard with dark blue leopard leggings. According to a source who scrutinized a rough cut of Lopez’s video, J.Lo also imitates DeLuna’s “dance hall moves” as she … gyrates in a club scene.
The fact that RedOne produced both singles could account for the lyrical similarities but not for the video. A source argues that Lopez’s video is “inspired” by DeLuna’s and all J.Lo did was give Kat’s vision a bigger budget. So, you see, Jennifer is actually helping Kat. If anything, Kat should be thanking her. Or not.
A former Sony BMG employee says this isn’t the first time Lopez has been “inspired” by Kat. Back in 2007, they both recorded for the same record company. DeLuna was working on her first album and her label suggested using the song “Miles in These Shoes” as her first single.
Jennifer laughed a hearty laugh, pointed her bony finger at record execs and told them to bring the song and some donuts to her. She “specifically urged executives to withdraw the song from Kat” so she could record it for the 2007 album “Brave.”
On Wednesday, DeLuna may have had enough and through a spokespersons said:
“I’ve seen this before, where the more established artist tries to take the vision and artistic ideas away from an emerging artist, and assumes no one will notice because of their bigger shadow,” DeLuna said through her spokesman. “Luckily, my loyal fans and the power of the Internet have let the ‘Kat’ out of the bag.”
DeLuna remains a good sport about the situation: “Business is business,” she says, adding she’s focusing on positive feedback from her upcoming single, “Dancing Tonight.”
Jennifer Lopez sounds like a bitch. She acts sweet and nice but that image is directly contrasted by these stories of her screwing people over and acting like a diva.
If you haven’t already, go check out Gatecrasher’s side-by-side of Jennifer and DeLuna. Jennifer’s photo is perfect. It makes her look like a soul-sucking she-devil. Also, Jennifer’s behind the scenes and Kat’s video below.
Bullshit!
No doubt its true…just get the lawyers involved and make J Lo look like the skank she is. She was Down on the Floor all right…with Black Puffy Combs trying to become famous.
she was with Combs alright but whats with the”black” we all know he’s black.
While I love Kat Deluna, she also ripped off Lady Gaga’s ‘Poker Face’ with ‘Calling You’.
But either way this a great publicity for Kat haha I didn’t even know about this awesome song until hearing J.Lo’s song. There both great and sadly the bigger artist like Kat said get away
stealing ideas like this. The music business is cut throat.
you swear! Kat’s was first!
And, Lady GaGa also ripped off Madonna. Not original at all!
That’s not true. She wears no such outfit in her video. The only similarity is that they both list similar cities. Why is everyone so made about this? Calm down, get over it.
STOP With the BULLSHIT!! this is ALL a LIE!
Before you post!, search for REAL information not this s**t!
Music is constantly recycled but as long as the artist who does it has a new spin and attitude on the song then whats the deal, really!?! I think that both ladies are very talented and beautiful latinas and people need to stop haten and tryna make something bigger than what it is…point blank! Siempre orgullosa de ser latina, todos somos uno!
Jennifer lopez needs to retire! Like anyone believes she’s in the club dancing all night every night anyways now that she has twins like 3 years oldd and that bonyass douche husband, leave the partying songs for the singers that actually still go out on a friday night haha
