Gwen Stefani And Pharrell Sued By Hairstylist For Stealing A Song
According to TMZ, Morrill says in his lawsuit that the idea for “Spark the Fire” actually dates back to 1998, when the hairstylist says he was coloring Stefani’s hair. During this time he says he played a track he’d recorded with his band L.A.P.D. entitled “Who’s Got My Lighter?” Morrill claims that the song stayed lodged in Stefani’s brain for 18 years, finally coming out in the form of some slightly altered lyrics in the hook of the newer song. Morrill wants a piece of the $25 million made by Stefani and Pharrell from the song, and it will be up to a judge to determine if the two songs have enough in common to merit further litigation.
