Does she have no respect for creative integrity and intellectual property!?

[–]My_Hands_Are_Weird 635 points636 points  (359 children)

Holy shit I saw that video just the other day and it really made me disappointed in a few people.

      That was much more similar than expected.

      Even clothing-wise

        Holy shit I forgot about that show and crazy-ass Donnie.

        [–]Birdperson4President 321 points322 points  (27 children)

        Fun fact: Donnie was voiced by the bass player Flea from Red Hot Chili Peppers.

        [–][deleted] 143 points144 points  (22 children)

        Wow! A "fun fact" on reddit that I found fun.

        [–]AnOnlineHandle 61 points62 points  (19 children)

        Potentially fun fact: Eliza Thornberry (the main character) was voiced by Lacey Chabert. (Well, I thought she was cute like one and a half decades ago when I was like 14).

        Shut up, Meg

        [–]TheBallsackIsBack 14 points15 points  (1 child)

        That's not a fun fact, that's a fetch fact

        [–][deleted] 27 points28 points  (6 children)

        Fuck Lacey is so hot.

                Probably didn't know it was hers

                  [–][deleted] 227 points228 points  (222 children)

                  Ha! I just came to read the comments and still have no clue what she sounds like.

                  [–]rokthemonkey 810 points811 points  (218 children)

                  Imagine the whitest Austrailian woman possible trying to sound like she grew up on food stamps and 40's in Brooklyn. I like Iggy, but she sounds so fake.

                          She's trying to sound like a southern rapper, for the record.

                          [–]rokthemonkey 72 points73 points  (53 children)

                          Is she? Jesus dicks. She's really bad at American accents.

                              My theory is that she is one of those people who has worked out exactly what 'the kids' want and is delivering just that and making sweet bank$$$$.

                              [–]Cam8895 83 points84 points  (7 children)

                              She didn't work out anything. People get fed these "artists" by music labels and companies that can churn out these pop stars every 3 years or so through advertising. Same with the fashion industry, they don't figure out what people want, they make people want their product instead.

                              [–][deleted] 46 points47 points  (18 children)

                              Basically take nicki minaj and make it whiter.

                                      Iggy actually plagiarized one of my songs. Not her in particular, more so her team of Producers, but still...

                                      Here is a comparison between my old song titled "Cvke" and her song "Black Widow": https://soundcloud.com/itsvestige/well-this-is-awkward

                                      Were both songs playing at the same time?

                                      It just sounded like one song to me (which might be saying something).

                                      [–]sf_dynasty 6 points7 points  (0 children)

                                      Yep! It was switching between both songs at the end of each bar.

                                        there's a chance she wouldn't even know about this, but she'd still owe some bucks for sure.

                                        Dude find a good lawyer asap. Especially after that case with Robin Thicke/Marvin Gay, someone would love to take that case.

                                        Are you taking any sort of legal action.

                                        [–]sf_dynasty 31 points32 points  (11 children)

                                        I'm considering it - the whole legal process is something I'm not familiar with. I dont' even know where I'd start

                                        [–]tjspeed 16 points17 points  (0 children)

                                        I would google property rights lawyers and start calling. You can potentially make a lot of money from that. It would be worth pursuing in my opinion

                                          Marvin Gaye's bullshit family managed to sue Pharrell and yours is a much stronger case than theirs for sure.

                                                If it is fake (praying it isn't) she's ever single and looking for a middle class white man from iowa I'll pop one of those cheeks like a spare on a mid 80s ford.

                                                Idk... she has been seen with Dr. Ashkan Ghavami, who is a very, very well known and skilled plastic surgeon to the rich and famous in Beverly Hills - who also SPECIALIZES in butt surgery. Pic isn't mine but I checked and he has a pic with her on his IG so although it's not certain, it'd definitely suspicious. http://imgur.com/s1Hikgs

                                                      Prepare to get a lawsuit from the Thornberry family and Smashing! Records.

                                                      This is a fucking insult. I can't believe you people would compare Donnie to her.

                                                      Flea from the Red Hot Chili Peppers voices Donnie. So yeah, comparing Iggy to Flea is kinda blasphemous.

                                                      They're both Australian? Boom, apples and oranges.

                                                        She makes money from the controversy, keeps her name out there, and makes money from the easy song. Nothing new to see here, everyone does it.

                                                        Seriously, this woman has no shame. I found another example where she rips off Jackie Chan

                                                        And this is her freestyling sounds like. "Word to the pot pie"

                                                        The Donnie part was fucking amazing. Who thinks of this shit?!

                                                        Should I be glad that I'm old enough to not know what the fuck is going on?

                                                        Nobody was this confused when Korn did it a while back.

                                                        Well, yeah, but Korn wasn't trying to pass off their guttural utterances off as a freestyle rap. Raps usually, you know, have actual words and rhyme and make sense.
