DJ Y2K Malone™ Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 LaChapelle angrily tweets Rihanna about ‘S&M’ plagiarism… “The next time you make a David LaChapelle music video you should probably hire David LaChapelle”, David LaChapelle angrily, to Rihanna. He is accusing the 22-year-old of plagiarizing his work for her controversial ‘S&M’ music video. The video has such striking resemblances to his work that fans bombarded the photographer with messages asking if he had a hand in directing it. Celebrity blogger Perez Hilton, who appeared in the video substituted as a dog on a lead, posted these shocking images. The comparative images pretty much busts Melina Matsoukas for duplicating the exact same sets, concepts, props, costumes, colors and designs. since the release of the video it has caused a frenzy on the internet first being banned in 11 countries then being flagged on you tube British radio stations decided to obey the ambiguous meaning of Rihanna’s latest single by changing the name of it to “Come On”. Clearly all the people who say this song should be rated R seems to have just one on their mind. In an interview with MTV that Rihanna did some time ago she clearly said that this song IS NOT ABOUT SEX! Despite all the negativity the video & Song is doing very well on vevo and ITUNES only after a week the video has grossed almost 8 million views and it's not slowing down and the song jumped from 85 to 12 on itunes singles chart while the video already has been #1 on Itunes video chart it's now #2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moonlight Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 Actually Beyonce generally cites most of the stuff she borrows/is influenced from.

bzebabe Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 I'm all for being influenced by someone's work, but this shit right here is doing the absolute most....and I don't give a damn about if you co-directed or didn't have any hand in direction...as an artist, you need to know what it is you are being given to work with....these "artists" now a days are little fuckin puppets...Rihallah said that Ms. Fenty co-directed the video...if that is the case, she and Melinda need their ass kicked for the monkey doodle foolishness...I enjoy Rihanna's music very much, but I can't cosign this shit...it's just too fuckin blatant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't like thieving bitches...and the fact that Rihanna has worked with David before...she knew his fuckin work...the word "artist" is thrown around too damn loosely these days...Melina aka (thieving ass Melinda from high school) has been accused of thievery before...funny thing is that this "co-director" credit was suppose to show Rihanna's creativity....welp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
