Another plagiarism accusation for Usher

R&B singer accused of stealing a song from TV show.

R&B singer Usher, 32, has been accused by radio DJs in Mississippi of stealing from The Simpsons animated TV show, according to Starpulse.

The DJs say there are strong similarities between the song OMG, Usher’s collaboration with will.i.am of the Black Eyed Peas, and a Christmas carol sung by the Homer Simpson character in a 2003 episode of the series.

Mississippi radio DJs have mixed the two song videos together and posted the results on YouTube, asking fans to compare the two and decide for themselves whether Justin Bieber’s mentor has plagiarized The Simpsons song.

Last month, Usher, 32, was involved in a trial where he was accused of plagiarism with Alicia Keys. Wadena Pyatt, an aspiring singer, accused the two stars of having stolen the song Caught Up.
