Ariana Grande is being sued for plagiarizing the work of Surrealist painter Vladimir Kush
Surrealist painter Vladimir Kush filed a lawsuit in a Nevada court accusing Ariana Grande of plagiarizing two of his paintings in the music video for her song "God is a Woman."
The two paintings that were plagiarized were released in 1999 and 2000 respectively titled The Candle and The Candle 2. The paintings were also copyrighted by Kush.
Kush also named the music director Dave Meyers, who has been in trouble before for plagiarizing artwork in the music video for Kendrick Lamar and SZA's "All the Stars," and Freenjoy Inc, the production company who produced the video.
The lawsuit in regards to the Kendrick Lamar and SZA plagiarism was settled in December 2018. Kush is seeking damages and wants Ariana to remove the video from the internet.
