Miley Cyrus is being sued for allegedly copying Bruno Mars’ 2013 song “When I Was Your Man” on her 2023 Grammy Award-winning track “Flowers”.
The Post obtained the lawsuit, which was filed by Tempo Music Investments in a Los Angeles court Monday.
The suit said there are “striking similarities” between the two songs and that Cyrus’ track “would not exist without” Mars’ ballad.
“Any fan of Bruno Mars’ ‘When I Was Your Man’ knows that Miley Cyrus’ ‘Flowers’ did not achieve all of that success on its own,” the documents state. “‘Flowers’ duplicates numerous melodic, harmonic, and lyrical elements of ‘When I Was Your Man.’”
Cyrus is named as a defendant alongside “Flowers” co-writers Gregory Hein and Michael Pollack. Sony Music Publishing and Apple are among the other defendants.
The company wants Cyrus and the rest of the defendants to stop “reproducing, distributing, or publicly performing ‘Flowers.’” The plaintiff is also seeking an unknown amount in damages.
