Selena Gomez is at the centre of a plagiarism battle amid allegations thechorus of her 2010 song A Year Without Rain was lifted from a little-known California band.
Rockers Luce have filed a $1 million (£625,000) lawsuit claiming the pop singer's track features a chorus that is "virtually identical" to their 2005 single Buy A Dog.
A Year Without Rain, co-written by Lindy Robbins and Toby Gad, became the title track of the teen star's second studio album with her band Selena Gomez and the Scene.
Gomez, Robbins and Gad have been named as co-defendants in the copyright infringement lawsuit, according to Courthouse News Service.
