Did Rihanna Steal ‘We Found Love’ Video Concept? You Decide!

Published: Thursday 20th Oct 2011 by Sam

Pop puppet Rihanna has built her career on a barely there outfits, barely there stage presence, barely there vocals, and what now appears to be barely there creativity.

For, just hours after settling her legal ramble with David La Chappelle over claims of plagiarism in her ‘S&M’ video, evidence has arisen suggesting she and her team are “borrowing” once again. This time from creative-hub Cee-Lo Green.

Details below…

A faithful member of the model’s Navy emailed That Grape Juice today concerned that their Pop pilot wasn’t as original as her new video for ‘We Found Love’ would have folk believe.

Armed with evidence, they pointed us to Cee-Lo Green’s ‘No One’s Gonna Love You’ clip. Let’s just say the visual stylings, look, and feel, are uncanny.

See for yourself below…

Cee-Lo’s ‘No One’s Gonna Love You’ Video

Rihanna’s ‘We Found Love’ Video

Being the fair and unbias site you so love us for being, it’s important to highlight that most music videos of today have a “reference”. However, the timing of this (see: La Chapelle), as well as Ms. Fenty’s all-round creative emptiness, makes this oh so messy. Luckily for Ri, she’s carved out an ‘eff it’ gimmick, sound, and career. Hence, the only backlash that’d matter in this case is one from the court-house.

    i dont believe you guys are u serious…you really cant let riri have her moment cant you

  6. MadonnaLover October 20, 2011

    You gonna post this s***, but when the controversy on beyonces countdown video went down, you were quiet as s***. F*** outta here. This site is trash.

  7. Adele October 20, 2011

    Ummm… I’m not sure about her stealing from Cee-Lo, but am I the only one who thinks that the video is just like every series of Skins wrapped into 4 minutes

  8. ovoxo October 20, 2011

    The red smoke the car scenes the field….same concept distructive couple

  9. DTG October 20, 2011

    Rihanna can’t sing at all. She has a terrible voice. No talent whatsoever. She sucks d*** for success.

  10. wayno October 20, 2011

    WHERE IS THE ORIGINALITY WITH ANY OF THEM?

  11. gjj90s October 20, 2011

    You’ve got a lot of nerve posting something so stupid! Since you wanna throw shade, why don’t you talk about BEYONCE’S video for COUNTDOWN which is BLATANT PLAGIARISM. SMFH. You guys can’t give this girl a break. Get off her d***. I mean, did Rihanna say something negative to ThatGrapeJuice? It seems like you can never give her props, it’s like you’re hell-bent on bashing her every move. Enough is enough. “We Found Love” is a great video. Point blank. Even the critics agree. You guys need to kill yourselves.

  12. Dre October 20, 2011

    Come on; the shyt doesn’t remotely seem like the same concept. If that’s the case, any video with two people on a car- where the similarity stops- copied this video. Just cause your fav got caught up don’tean everybody steals!

  13. MUSICISME October 20, 2011

    Its funny how the one site that would decide to pick up something like that, taking into consideration that Beyonce copies video AFTER video (Countdown as well all know, and Love on Top from New Edition) would be TGJ… And have a severe lack of evidence to go with it…

    The videos have slight things that can be compared, but they are so natural to life that you cannot actually acuse her of anything… Again, TGJ is so far up Bey’s ass that they never seem to mention how she directly STEALS her concepts video after video, performance after performance… I hate using Bey as an example, but when someone continuously chooses to bash one and not the other while being biased on a bi-postly basis (as every other post is Rihanna) there is obviously an issue somewhere

    Rihanna continues to bring an amount of grit to what she does, where so many artists lack… TGJ should start looking closer to their ‘wig closet’ to see where most of musics stealing comes from, cos it dam sure aint here…

  14. MichaelAngelo October 20, 2011

    Told you so…now what

  15. truciebedford October 20, 2011

    I’ll answer that question when you put up Beyonce’s countdown, and 1+1 vid and ask the same question!

    juts wanna say how disgusting this site is!!!!!!!!!!

    rihanna is shaded all the time yet the following stories were never posted:

    1. BEYONCE DEFLATING BUMP-still waiting
    2. BEYONCE “borrowing 1 + 1 video…..still waiting
    3. BEYONCE being “inspired for COUNTDOWN……still waiting
    4. BEYONCE being “inspired” for LOVE ON TOP….still waits

    if the above stories were RIHANNA’S they would have been posted and reposted over and Over again but u guys kiss BEY’s ass like she is God

    if this article was ‘beyonce settles lawsuit’ it would not have been posted

    good luck having beyonce’s poop for desert and with all the shade, RIHANNA is still moving and going strong

    YES DELETE MY COMMENT COZ I SPOKE TRUTH

    kelly rowland stole her last videos and BEYONCE steals all the time but that is never posted

    WOW u guys must stop claimin ‘we are a a legitimate, unbiased site’ coz u aint

    where are the posts about kelly stealin the whole videos two in a row?? and where are the posts about beyonce???????????

    if the above cases were rihanna’s u would post them and repost them over and over again. hypocrites

  21. Dustin October 20, 2011

    Fair and unbiased? That’s funny. I agree that most of what rihanna does is derivative and hot garbage but let’s call a spade a spade here. You hate Britney and Rihanna and refuse to give credit even when it’s due. Meanwhile beyonce could shart into a mic and you’d say it’s an extension of her creative genius. Especially when no one has gleaned more from the past than miss hey herself. She just doesn’t come off as desperate like Christina so when she gets called on it nothing ever really materializes.

  22. lisa…maryjblige album the queen of hiphop and soul October 20, 2011

    and b4 i go maryjblige the queen of hiphop soul will definitely #1so get ready real talent speaks for itself

    Regardless, Rihanna’s video was more epic and cee-lo’s suck. Btw, ri’s was filmed in Ireland. And it looks like that video was filmed in the south of the US. Sam, f*** off. U just mad and everyone else rihanna’s video SLAYED all others this year. And it don’t matter if adele has sold 10 million ww. Her music videos are still boring. Ri’s are EPIC. I can’t wait for lady gaga’s video merry the night.

  31. HaterzStayPressed October 20, 2011

    TGJ is losing credibility. It’s okay to be Beyonce’s fan. But it’s not okay to be biased when reporting. You failed to post anything related to Beyonce blatant plagiarism for the Countdown video, yet you highlight this video from Cee-Lo Green claiming Rihanna stole it, when in fact the two videos are nothing alike.

    Why don’t you create a Beyonce blog because this is becoming embarrassing to you. You are up there with how Perez Hilton was firmly up Lady Gaga’s ass and him shading Christina Aguleria to the point that her career faltered. Look at how his base fell off.

    I know that it’s vitally important that these blogs have comment after comment for paid advertising, but look dude – you are going to lose members just how Perez Hilton has. Trust that.

  32. Rihanna is slaying the fake pregnant bish #DEAL October 20, 2011

  35. Royalkev October 20, 2011

    I actually like Rihanna’s WFL video, but I’m so glad that these artist that take concepts from other artist who’ve done them yesterday are being exposed. All these stans that swear up and down that Bey is the “only” unoriginal artist in today’s industry that “steals”, need this eye opener. Bey can’t cross her legs without someone citing the “original source” and referencing another video made in 1762. I’m fed up with the Kelly stans, Rihanna stans, etc that are always the first to bash her when their fav is guilty of a bigger crime. Even these ridiculous Mimi stans have something to add occassionally (when they should be more concerned with their own favs shortcomings) are ready to criticize. It only exposes the stans insecurities more than anything else. IMO, WFL is similar to Cee-lo’s work, but it may be one of Rihanna’s best videos (I can’t watch half of them). She’s getting called out because everyone wants to wear their blinders when it comes to their fav and reduce others down to nothing. We can play this game all day!

  38. Gregg October 20, 2011

    The influence for rihanna’s video is quite obviously requiem for a dream…and is just that -an influence. Having been a fan of this site for a long time it’s now getting serious. Blind criticism for the sake of intrigue is not in any way a means to increase this sites ‘stature’. Before making serious accusations you should take the necessary time to present a legitimate proposal. Widen your field of influence beyond that of newly released music videos as Cee-Lo’s and Rihanna’s videos are not the first to view the concept of being trapped in life. If this is now a fictitious and ‘bitchy’ gossip site call it such.

    Why blame it the artist always blame when the director of video should be the one that’s blame for not having an original concept for a video that is what they get paid to do. So haters stay off of RiRi and Beys c***

    LOL! Remember Sam, the word is “to be inspired by”! As a true B fan, u should know! I didn’t watch the first vid in full, just kinda skipped around, but it is the same concept as Riri’s. But remember, B got everyone used to the fact that stealing ideas isn’t copying but being inspired by. Play fair. U are, as u say so urself, “an unbiased site”.

  49. VIVIENE J October 20, 2011

    how are people saying that you should blame the director for the similarities and not the artist but when it’s Beyonce everyone is ready to lynch her. Straight up proves its nothing but Beyonce hate. 1 rule should apply to everyone, if B stole then Rhi stole, straight up.

  50. the kiddz October 20, 2011

    TGJ knows what they’re doing when they make their posts. This will be my last time coming here, it’s getting ridiculous now. Way too biased.

    If the concept was stolen or inspired or whatever, I’m not blaming Rihanna. She has nothing to do with the creation or conceptualizing of her music or videos…so if there is plagerism involved (which I doubt), I blame Rihanna’s team. Oh & I like both videos, but only one of the songs is good. We found love is just not a good song; rihanna’s vocals do not fit that style of production & the lyrics and arrangement are uninspired although the concept might be nice. To the ppl comparing rihanna & beyonce: The primary proffession for both these women is singing, you can say whatever you like about rihanna’s style, songs, originality, personality etc. but when it comes down to it she can’t hold a candle to beyonce as a vocalist & she has zero ability when it comes to creating a complete album. Everything else is extra.

  59. tweetypiebabe1 October 20, 2011

    Yes they are similar in terms of cinematography but both songs tell two completely different stories and their videos depict that. Also, I guarantee you a lot of Rihanna’s video is autobiographical.

    Why all of a sudden are people constantly accusing artists of copying?! Videos like these two have been around for years and many and many artists take inspiration from things to create their own. Music is cyclic, like fashion, like art. Things come and go in periods. Sometimes artists are successful in their recreation/depiction, and sometimes they fall short. There are short films, movies and television shows made all the same. Shall way accuse them of copying those as well?

    A true testament to an artist’s creativity is reinventing what they were originally inspired by and making it their own. I think Rihanna made ‘We Found Love’ her own.

  60. BeBeJuJu October 20, 2011

    YES IT’S STOLEN!
    it’s sad coz this is the video that actually made me change my mind about Rihanna! thought the concept was fresh and new…but oh well,i’ve said it before (to Beyonce, Kelly and even Rihanna herself)there’s basically nothing new under the sun,it’s all been done before,BUT IF YOU’RE GONNA USE SOMEONE ELSE’S IDEAS,THEN SITE THEM! PLAGIARISM IS NO JOKE!! U’LL END UP LOOKING STUPID AND GETTING YOUR ASS SUED!

    The video is conceptually inspired by two movies: Transpotting and Requiem for a Dream. I encourage you all to google it/youtube it for yourselves. The video director credited the two films and it’s also mentioned on MTV.

    This is a sad attempt of tearing someone down to prop someone up. In this case, TGJ is trying to tear Rihanna’s GLOBAL NUMBER ONE song and hot as f*** video in order to prop up Beyonce’s LACKLUSTER efforts that hasn’t made one DENT on the charts.

    Beyonce will snatch wigs again… but right now she ain’t doing it. Get over it.

    If anything I would say RIhanna is justified in using this concept because it actually happened to her, its a depiction of her life/love story with Chris.

  70. KERRON October 20, 2011

    These videos are not the same at all….dont let sam fool…SHE purposely went on youtube looking for a video that looks like Rihanna’s….obviously SHE was unsuccessful

    And by the way this is the only site that is accusing Rihanna of stealing…the concept of this video…Yesterday alot of yall were saying that this is about her relationship with chris so how could she steal her life story…think about it.

  71. RATEDXx(delusional is a hell of a drug) October 20, 2011

    first of all this is a beyonce fansite..have u guys ever checked the background of this site? beyonce album 4 is on the background…is she the only person with an album out right now NO…

    so since this is a fansite for the queen im sorry king of the lacefront, nothing negative is going to be said on here..

  72. Get Real October 20, 2011

    For those of you saying she is guilty of copying in this video did yall even watch the other video? Because I did, and they have the same concept, that is a young relationship gone wrong. If thats the case, haven’t these videos copied off the movie Blue Valentine, or the show Skins, season 4 specifically, no? That’s right no, you c****, it’s called reaching. And ya’ll doing the most.
    Actually, most of you reach damn near everyday on this website, and i’ve been reading these articles for a few years now and sad say I’m about done here. WAAAAAY too much stanning, including you, TGJ.

    the rihanna stans/fans needs to calm down….we already know what the video is about..
    chris and rihanna relationship…he was like a drug to her…she misses getting high

    its obvious that grape juice aint got s*** to do with their life, so they have to post BS..

    These over the top fans stay calling out Rihanna and Beyonce. it’s just a music video to provide a visual for the song. it’s not the end of the world, Beyonce gets called out on every other site and so does rihanna. Im not a rihanna fan at all but the this is not plagiarism its a similar concept but it’s not shot for shot the same. and beyonce makes her stuff obvious people act like she came out and said this is all her idea she’s never been inspired or wanted to remake something she’s seen before. you cant expose whats already obvious. but while this stan war is going on both Rihanna and Beyonce making money, and doing what they want to do.

    I am done with this site this is just too much. Tgj failed to post anything about beyonce coping for her love on top and coutdown videos and kelly rowlands lay it on me video yet they are the first top hop on this especially when the video is not copied there are similarities but they are not the same unlike countdown where she copied the cloths and the dance moves and studio and did not change a dam thing this is my last post I am done with tgj

  80. Kelly P October 20, 2011

    Rihanna’s video does not copy Cee Lo’s video. There are but so many concepts for a video that people can come up with so there are bound to be some similarities every once in a while. You stupid f**** just want to start some s***. Stop comparing artists because it is really getting old. I like Keri Hilson but lets not pretend like the is just that hot s***. when she has won as many awards as Beyonce or Rihanna then talk but until then holla back.

    Why don’t all you complainers who hate the way TGJ bashes Rihanna just get the hell out? Find some Rihanna d*** riding site and queen out over there with the rest of the dorks who like her gay ass music.

    TGJ is playing you all like lotto. You hate the way they bash Rihanna, yet you check this site out how many times a day to see what they’re saying? LOL

    —————————————————————————-

    Exactly! I’m so sick of these damn R****** stans bitching about TGJ going in on their fave when they know damn well TGJ hates Rihanna and they will constantly throw shade! It’s obvious they do it just to rile you pressed h*** and you fall for it evey f****** time! Stop f****** coming here if you don’t like that they don’t kiss her ass! Go camp out at R****** Daily!

    And all you b****** bringing up Beyonce whenever your fave gets called out needs to get off the b*******! Bringing up another artist ain’t gonna do s*** for your fave! I do recall a post not to long ago about Rihanna settling a lawsuit over the S&M video so don’t act like this is the first time she has been accused of this! If R****** rips off someone then her ass needs to be called out as well! DEAL WITH IT!

    All you sour h*** need to stop bringing up Beyonce whenever R****** is being called out because there is nothing original about Rihanna! She’s not even an artist, she is just a manufactured puppet and all she does is show up to the set and do what she is told to do!

  88. VA STAND UP!!! October 20, 2011

    Now….putting my personal feelings aside, the videos really aren’t that similiar at least not enough to say she ripped him off. Besides the obvious similiarties of a disfunctional relationship and the way they shot the scenes, there’s really nothing about the videos that remind me of each other. I kinda likes Cee Lo’s song better though. *sighs*

    Sam was CLEARLY looking for a post to bait the Goat stans and as usually they fell for it! TGJ will stop at nothing to shade Rihanna and they never fail to impress me with the lenghts they go to or the flat out obsurdity! They are relentless and I LOVE it! LMAO!!

    For all the sensitive ass forehead stans that can’t take the jokes (yet they are so quick to spew the hate for other artist I.E Beyonce, Chris Brown) then you could always just STOP coming here! Your presence will NOT be missed!

  89. Those That Cannot Do, Stan October 20, 2011

    “The video is conceptually inspired by two movies: Transpotting and Requiem for a Dream. I encourage you all to google it/youtube it for yourselves. The video director credited the two films and it’s also mentioned on MTV.”

    I was wondering if anyone else would get that 🙂

    There’s nothing wrong with paying homage or being inspired but there is a way to do it. Look at movies, you wouldn’t see The Hulk movie and then a week later see someone replicate the movie scene for scene but with a different name and not credit the original would you.

    There really isn’t anything new under the sun, but there’s a difference between truly being inspired and playing out your own idea in your own style and simply replicating someone ‘s works because of lack of creativity.

  90. Ms Lovely October 20, 2011

    LMAOOOOOO @ Rihanna stans,mad and upset coz Rihanna got caught stealing once again. I knew i had seen that video concept before.Rihanna isn’t a hands on type of artist, she’s just a puppet for LA Reid. LOL @ the stans thinking Rihanna struck gold with soem orginality. This is why MTV will be paying her dust

  91. zania October 20, 2011

    @POPROYALITY. Are hurting that your favorite is rooting for CB like in her magazine and yes this was about her experiences, she used some of her experiences with the direction concept from another movie. The model dying his hair blonde, the restuarant scene the same seen she had when her and CB was at KFC. When she was laying in his arms, google it same photo online. Arguing in the car.You are indenial if you think she didn’t put some of her own personal experience into the video.

  92. zania October 20, 2011

    @POP ROYALITY If this video wasn’t personal to her, why did she say on twitter after watching the final cut she wanted to cry? and this the deepest video she has ever done. I am not saying everything is related to her prior relationship but some of it was.

    I actually like Rihanna’s WFL video, but I’m so glad that these artist that take concepts from other artist who’ve done them yesterday are being exposed. All these stans that swear up and down that Bey is the “only” unoriginal artist in today’s industry that “steals”, need this eye opener. Bey can’t cross her legs without someone citing the “original source” and referencing another video made in 1762. I’m fed up with the Kelly stans, Rihanna stans, etc that are always the first to bash her when their fav is guilty of a bigger crime. Even these ridiculous Mimi stans have something to add occassionally (when they should be more concerned with their own favs shortcomings) are ready to criticize. It only exposes the stans insecurities more than anything else. IMO, WFL is similar to Cee-lo’s work, but it may be one of Rihanna’s best videos (I can’t watch half of them). She’s getting called out because everyone wants to wear their blinders when it comes to their fav and reduce others down to nothing. We can play this game all day!

    THIS!

    Rihanna had her accusations of “copying” others as well but some (not all) of her stans act like she ain’t copy jack squat in her life.The sad thing is that most of our faves had their sources of inspiration and they can’t even accomplish that without getting ridiculed for “copying”.IMO ALL of these accusations of “swagger-jacking” have been getting out of hand these days.In my opinion,I find it kind of petty and childish (this could seem somewhat ironic coming from me) to dislike and/or hate because they ‘stole’ something that probably didn’t have a copyright in the first place.Art is Art.Art is SUBJECTIVE and Art is about Creating,or making something your own,NOT this “Real Music” vs “Fake Music” s*** that people LOVE to tout on blogs.

    And just because I typed this rant does NOT mean that a certain OTHER someone has to be involved.

    ‘Rude Boy’, ‘S&M’ and ‘We found love’ are certified rip-offs. Melina (the director) is loosing her mojo.

    And for God’s sake, the expression “Best video to date” is EXTREMELY overrated. I may need Kingsleyy to make a video about this.

    i dont give two f**** if she copies, steal, jack,,,if she puts out something i like i will buy it…

    my thing is with u stans who puts her on a pedistal, like shes cant do no wrong, like shes original, like shes the only person in the whole world who can sing and dance..
    and u guys do it by bashing other folks..

    my point is why put her on a pedistal if shes doing what exactly everyone is doing? why say shes the greatest when theres no original ideas out there?

    “Pop puppet Rihanna has built her career on a barely there outfits, barely there stage presence, barely there vocals, and what now appears to be barely there creativity.”

    and then you say

    “Being the fair and unbias site you so love us for being, it’s important to highlight that most music videos of today have a “reference”. However, the timing of this (see: La Chapelle), as well as Ms. Fenty’s all-round creative emptiness, makes this oh so messy. Luckily for Ri, she’s carved out an ‘eff it’ gimmick, sound, and career. Hence, the only backlash that’d matter in this case is one from the court-house.”

    Everyone pretty much said it already, but I will say this. There is a big difference between being inspired and straight plagiarism.

    For example Captain EO by Michael Jackson is what inspired Janet Jackson to do Rhythm Nation. Are there similarities? Yes. But, you can hardly notice them. Why? Because Michael’s video was the inspiration, or it is what gave Janet the idea for her own concept. With permission.

    Beyonce on the other hand, straight copies ideas literally frame by frame. Same outfit, same hair, same choreography. Without permission. How can you defend that?

    Rihanna’s ass didn’t write the treatment for this f*****’ video, first of all. It’s a whole bunch of Pop Culture references that only Melina’s ASS would know, including Sid & Nancy and Requiem For A Dream. The concept is similar, but not enough to be a problem. MELINA KNOCKED THIS VIDEO OUT OF THE PARK. It went perfect with the song’s feeling, and it hit that nerve people wanted it to hit. The public can’t get enough of CB & Rihanna drama and Rihanna is milking it for all it’s worth–despite CB trying his darndest to move on.

    The video was executed to PERFECTION aesthetically, but as far as PERSONALLY, I think it was a CHEAP publicity stunt that obviously worked. She just seems like a vulture who will do anything to climb higher and remain relevant.

    ___________________________

    It’s NOT Beyonce hate..well not all of it….With Beyonce this being inspired(copying) happens more often with her more than any other artist…she also gets a lot of flack becuz she “claims” to write ALL her video treatments, direct the videos, choreograph the videos,etc…..Rihanna or ne1 else doesn’t always say this stuff so that’s y Bey looks like a bigger fool and Thief bcuz she was taking ALL the credit b4 she got caugt stealing..I mean being inspired…

    @KERI HILSON IS BADDDDDD AT SINGING AND IS A THREAT TO SOME BIRDSEED (ISTANN4GAGA)
    I think I see the name of Madge’s there or maybe I’m blind, I’m a fan of Madonna and Gaga, but that does not make me blind I see that they steal ideas from other artists, no big deal, fans will just have to recognize that.

  139. Onyx October 20, 2011

    Fans has to make fun of some things, thats what i do.

  140. bey-riri-gaga October 20, 2011

    I see similarities but in no way is it plagerism, beyonce’s countdown was plagerisn.

    This video actually made the song for me, it is one of her best videos yet. I really love how rihanna is going off of her incident wih chris brown, and I like the accent she has in the begining.

  141. Theman October 20, 2011

    This is her best video. Not plagiarism. People are just knit picking because of Beyonce.

  142. Angelique October 20, 2011

    Rihanna is the one being accused of stealing. So why is Beyonce’s name is this post? Bringing her name into this mess won’t change the fact that Rihanna’s video concept was stolen. I promise, some of you are so childish. Point fingers at others…we’re not talking about Beyonce or Kelly, we’re talking about Rihanna, hence this being a Rihanna post. It doesn’t matter who does it, it’s wrong PERIOD. Weather it was done by Beyonce, Rihanna, or Tymisha done the street. Goodness.

  143. Deontay October 20, 2011

    this non singing b**** most definatly took that,or “borrowed” it…im pissed rite now so i’m not goin into detail!!

  144. Danceforme October 20, 2011

    Haha tgj I see you mention this but you didn’t post anything about beyonce or kelly rowlands videos which ripped off complete scenes and dance move I love bey but she needs to learn to stop being “inspired” by people. Oh and only riris s&m video had controversy for using davids pictures and making them into scenes. So one video out of more than 20 is not bad while bey though I love her has about half of her videos plagued with controversy over her being “inspired” by othee peoples work.

    madonna has nothing to do with this post

  149. KERI HILSON IS BADDDDDD AT SINGING AND IS A THREAT TO SOME BIRDSEED (ISTANN4GAGA) October 20, 2011

    @Madonnalover

    I see…I also mentioned that I should have renigged the comment.

    Anyway,I was going after someone who mentioned Gaga (who also had nothing to do with this post),That’s why. 😐

  150. KERI HILSON IS BADDDDDD AT SINGING AND IS A THREAT TO SOME BIRDSEED (ISTANN4GAGA) October 20, 2011

    @Onyx

    HAVE ANY NOTICE THAT CHRIS DYED HIS HAIR BLONDE AGAIN. HE POSTED THE PICTURE ON TWITTER, I WONDER IF THIS IS A OLD PICTURE OR NEW
    ***********************************

    That is a new picture. Boy those two are really up to something but what ever it is will shock the world.

  154. LTM October 20, 2011

    hmm checking to see if I care……….nope. oh well

  155. noodles October 20, 2011

    NO ONE CARES!

    You would have been better off posting about Chris dying his hair blonde again….lmao.

  156. JAMIR21: I LOVE RIHANNA, BRITNEY, BEYONCE, NICKI AND GAGA October 20, 2011

    First of all…..rihanna didnt copy this video…you should be posting about someone stealing from an european artist……!

  157. smh October 20, 2011

    disturbia = tamia’s imagination
    only girl = ryan (Some guy from )youtube it and you’ll see, s
    nothing is really new under the sun.

  158. Smh October 20, 2011

    disturbia = tamia’s imagination
    only girl = a video by some guy from japan
    point is nothing is really new under the sun, but can we stop saying artists copied this and that because it doesn’t take away how great the video is.

  159. JUDAS666 October 20, 2011

    The bonnie and clyde theme is nothing new… If you say Rihanna swagger jacked then Cee-Lo swagger jacked the motif also. This lame “girl lost finds bad boy” plot goes back decades if not back to Shakespeare. Stop reaching Sam, stay pressed!! And this coming from someone who cant stand Rihanna. Next…

  160. _ignorance101 October 20, 2011

    I do feel that both of these videos had somewhat of the same concept, the highs and low of being in love together at the worst point in life or whatever, but I don’t really see where she “copied” the video per say.

  161. B October 21, 2011

    Everyday you all talking about Rihanna and Beyonce and their alleged plagarism…GIVE IT UP..Damn do yall ever point out the positive points on these artists…Yall can never be pleasant on the internet..MESSY ASS PEOPLE SMH

  162. @PEGGYHYLTON October 21, 2011

    RIHANNA IS A S***……………..FOLLOW ME ON TWITTER FOR MORE @PEGGYHYLTON

  163. Papa Coleman October 21, 2011

    That’s like claiming she ripped of Blue Valentine, get a life people. Enjoy it for what it is.

  164. YOOSONDALOOSE October 21, 2011

    Nah I don’t think so for this video.
    But S&M yes!

  165. C*** October 21, 2011

    it’s like a bad episode of Skins…

  166. TYLER October 21, 2011

    NOPE NOTHING SIMILAR…. I HAVE SEEN THESE CONCEPTS ALL BEFORE IN THE 90S SO SHUT UP. PEOPLE DO RECYCLE AND TAKE IT UP WITH THE DIRECTOR AND NOT RIHANNA. AND START GETTING ON BEYONCE ASS FOR ALL THE STEALING SHE DOES. I THNK BEYONCE IS A DEVIL WORSHIPPER CAUSE SHE GETS AWAY WITH TOO MUCH

  167. bm October 21, 2011

    RIHANNA AND BEYONCE ARE COPYCATS TO THE FULLEST!

  168. bm October 21, 2011

    BEYONCE AND JAY Z TOOK TUPACS SONG ME AND MY GIRLFRIEND FOR BONNIE AND CLYDE

  169. LAX October 21, 2011

    yes beyonce steals too much also @ tyler

  170. Anthony October 21, 2011

    … The people have spoken.

    AND even if there is a “reference”, which I don’t see, at least it’s a good reference – unlike that damn Countdown video….

  171. sallyone November 1, 2011

    I see that Melina chick is making a lot of enemies in the industry…i guess she’s real thirsty for that come-up!!!

  172. sallyone November 1, 2011

    & yes the concept is the same…but Melina did a better job visually

  173. sallyone November 1, 2011

    Phuck what the people are saying…if they decide to sue…the only opinion that matters is the judge’s

  174. Gilberto November 1, 2011

    Melina is a copycat. She ripped off many videos.
    Only Girl looks exactly like Kelis’s 4th July. S&M is a rip-off of… well, we know. What’s My Name resembles Halo. Rude Boy is a copy of MIA’s Boyz. “Hate That I Love You” is a copy of Irreplaceable. Disturbia is a copy of Tamia’s Imagination. Umbrella is a copy of Brandy’s Aphrodisiac… And list goes on and on.

    No one is original these days. Rihanna isn’t. Beyoncé isn’t. Lady Gaga isn’t. NO ONE. They aren’t originals because they don’t want to be, but because everything was already done. The fact is that Beyoncé is so perfect that some delusional people try the best to bring her down. No one can say that Beyoncé can’t sing and dance without being delusional. The haters look at very detail of her videos (even the smallest one) to say that she copied someone. B****! The entertainment industry is very old. There are billions and billions of things done. No matter what you do, someone has done in the past.

  175. Rosa November 8, 2011

    Watch the movie candy.. you’ll see where she got the idea

  176. RihannaNavy December 14, 2011

    Beyonce has stolen countless videos, FRAME TO FRAME, same clothes, same moves, stolen performances, stolen credits to songs but yet we go bash Rihanna? The videos look similar in terms of CONCEPTS, not frame to frame and outfits and stuff….. but lets be honest here… we dont know if Rihanna sat down as watched the video and saw the video…BEYONCE looks and studies and sees all this s*** HERSELF…. “inspired” my ass. fake h**….. even if.. SHE WAS ON TOUR WITH CEE-LO…. I’m sure he knows.

    Yall talking s*** about Rihanna, this still doesnt compare to Beyonce’s fake pregnant theifin ass.
