People have been copying for years it's natural

As I said, Gaga can copy the color of pomegranates but Miley can't? Wow.

Why make a big deal out of them sampling 2 seconds of some song when it's done by every single artist including Gaga herself (even on her latest album)? I'm honestly curious because I see people being so outraged by them sampling a song. 

Just few shameless examples that basically copied whole songs and called it a sample:

I'm sorry in that case! I noticed a lot of people dragging them because they used that sample so I thought it's a nod to that..

exactly, you can’t praise Gaga for her references when you call it copying with others. 

Its different because Gaga Directly referenced movie and director said that film was an inspiration

 

While They did not ackknowledge that video so far and seems like creator of that is outraged which is way different thing 

 

Stop coming for Gaga for no reason

Before I entered this thread I didn't even know that video existed  .

No, they used a sample. So if Gaga used sample from Whitney Houston to Replay, then does it mean she copied it?

Dream wife's song and mv are even better :o

This is work stealing? She just recreated some moment and for me it doesn't mean she stole that. Maybe I'm wrong but this is something like 911 and the color of pomegranates. 

But in the 911 video the movie was not only referenced but the poster of it was in the actual final act.

The references Gaga used from TCOP (and all other films referenced in the video) aren’t identical enough to consider them stolen, its obviously reinterpreted and credit is given where its due. Its a well referenced piece of art. The Miley and Dua video seems to have found a cool idea in a lesser known artist’s video and copied it without acknowledging or citing, let along giving any sort of visual credit. Also there is a difference between referencing well known works that people can pick up on (ie. 911) and referencing lesser known works WITHOUT giving any sort of indication that it was an inspiration.

I thought the video was inspired by The Runaways film lol

[JusKeepBreathin 19,311]

There were teeth in Miley and Dua's video?

Edit: Ok now I saw the teeth that was in Miley's video for 5 seconds tops. 

As for Miley's hair and outfit, everyone dressed like that in the 80's Pat Benetar, Joan Jett.

I thought it was the whole point of it, seems pretty obvious lol. The whole Plastic Hearts persona seems like she's honoring the 80's, Debbie Harry, etc. Of course most of Miley's fans are in their early 20's and have no idea about this culture and they will see it as something new.
