Did Lady Gaga Plagiarize A Korean Band?

Hasn’t Lady Gaga supposedly plagiarized Madonna’s ‘Express yourself’ with her ‘Born this way’? I thought it was very close, but the OCWeekly has come up with another good theory: a Korean girl group that goes under the name of SNSD, an acronym of So Nyeo Shi Dae, may have been another source of inspiration for the fame monster.

The band released a second full-length album in January 2010, and it seems that one song from this album, ‘Be Happy’, shares way too many dance beats with Gaga’s song to be just a coincidence. Someone took the time to put alternating excerpts of both songs in a single clip on youtube, so you will be able to judge by yourself.

But wait a minute, Madonna’s song is from 1989, so she still may be the ultimate source of inspiration for both songs.
