Madonna accused of plagiarising new track

Pop superstar Madonna has been accused of copying her latest single from a track by a Brazilian musician.

Joao Brasil claims the chorus of the Material Girl's new song ‘Give Me All Your Luvin'’, which she performs with Nicki Minaj and M.I.A., is a rip-off of his own tune ‘L.O.V.E. Banana’.

His record company bosses and legal team are now considering whether to take court action over the allegation - but Brasil is adamant Madonna is his heroine and he doesn't want to sue her.

He tells Brazil's Folha da Sao Paulo newspaper, "I still don't understand what happened. I'm a huge fan of hers. If it's plagiarism, then even better. She is always at the cutting edge of music, so it's a good sign about what I do... It's in their hands, they're looking at how to proceed and what they can do. But personally I don't want to do anything. The last thing I need in my life is a fight with Madonna."
