No trial for Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift avoids a trial where she is accused of plagiarism. According to Variety the pop star has settled with the two songwriters who believe she plagiarized one of their songs. However, the details of the settlement are not known.
The dispute has been going on for over five years and is about Swift’s hit “Shake It Off”. Sean Hall and Nathan Butler claim it is too similar to their song “Playas Gon’ Play” from 2001.
The lyrics that the songwriters claim Taylor Swift copied from “Playas gon’ play” are “players gonna play” and “haters gonna hate” which is repeated throughout the chorus. In “Shake it off”, the same two phrases are repeated in the chorus.
