As of January 1, 2025, the beloved spinach-loving sailor, Popeye, has officially entered the public domain.

Everyone must have heard about the recent plagiarism controversy involving Lisa and Travis Scott. Lisa's MV, released on June 28, has garnered a million views in just a few days, which shows how popular this MV is.

In such circumstances, some controversy is inevitable. You can compare Lisa's "Rockstar" at 1:18-1:28 with Travis Scott's "FE!N" at 1:22-1:30; the similarity is indeed striking. It is said that Lisa's team sought permission from director Gabriel Moses to use a similar filming technique, but they were refused. If this is true, does it imply that Lisa's team copied the other party's work?

As of now, Lisa's team has not responded. We will have to wait and see how this international copyright dispute unfolds.
