Miley Cyrus & Bruno Mars’ ‘Flowers’ Lawsuit: Why She’s Being Sued

Bruno is not the one suing Miley, but Tempo Music Investments alleged in a lawsuit that she copied his hit single ‘When I Was Your Man’ in her Grammy-winning song ‘Flowers.’

The lawsuit, which was filed in in a Los Angeles court on Monday, September 16, also accuses multiple companies of distributing “Flowers,” including Sony Music Publishing, Apple, Target and Walmart. The court documents further claimed that Miley’s song “duplicates numerous melodic, harmonic, and lyrical elements” of Bruno’s hit track. Bruno’s track is remorseful, as he watches a former partner move on with a new man, while Miley’s song is a self-empowering tune that pays tribute to embracing the single life.
