Miley Cyrus Sued Over 'Flowers' in Lawsuit, Accused of Copying Bruno Mars
Miley Cyrus is being sued in a new lawsuit that claims her 2023 song 'Flowers' bears a striking resemblance to Bruno Mars' 2013 track 'When I Was Your Man'
Arturo Holmes/Getty Images; Courtesy of Fender/MEGATempo Music Investments, which owns a copyright share of Mars’ song “When I Was Your Man,” alleged in paperwork filed in a Los Angeles court on Monday, September 16, that many “recognized the striking similarities” between the two works of art, Us Weekly confirms. “It is undeniable based on the combination and number of similarities between the two recordings that ‘Flowers’ would not exist without ‘When I Was Your Man,'” the documents stated while claiming that Cyrus’ song “duplicates numerous melodic, harmonic, and lyrical elements” of Mars’ track. As for Miley’s song, her chorus stood out to some, in which she sang, “I can buy myself flowers / Write my name in the sand / Talk to myself for hours / Say things you don’t understand / I can take myself dancing / And I can hold my own hand / Yeah, I can love me better than you can.”
