Ukrainian Singer Sues Over 'Call Me Maybe' -- Carly Rae Jepsen Stole My Song!
Ukrainian Singer Suing Over 'Call Me Maybe' Carly Rae Stole My Song!
UKRAINE NOT WEAK ... Ukraine sue -- at least that's what one hot Ukrainian singer is doing, claiming Carly Rae Jepsen shamelessly stole her slutty Christmas song ... and turned it into "Call Me Maybe."
The singer -- who goes by Aza -- is filing the lawsut in L.A., claiming "Call Me Maybe" is a carbon copy of her song "Hunky Santa" ... which producers simply tweaked before adding Carly Rae Jepsen's voice.
According to the lawsuit -- to be filed today by Aza's lawyer Barry Rothman -- she's suing for unspecified damages ... but based on how insanely popular "Call Me Maybe" is, a ton of money's on the line.
Aza tells us, "I'm shocked and surprised that these people wanted to sample my lyrics on their song. They didn't ask me for permission, they just took it. That's why I filed this lawsuit. When I first heard it on the radio, I was driving and almost got into an accident. I couldn't believe what I was hearing."
As for how similar the songs REALLY are -- you be the judge.
Scooter Braun -- Justin Bieber's manager -- is also named in the suit.
UKRAINE IS GAME TO YOU?!?!
