Katy Perry and collaborators found guilty of copyright infringement over 'Dark Horse'

Katy Perry has lost a copyright infringement suit over her song"Dark Horse."

Billboard reports that Perry's collaborators, including Dr. Luke, Max Martin and Juicy J, were also found liable. However, the plaintiffs argued that Perry's parents, who are both pastors, and her short-lived stint as a Christian pop singer, may have made it more likely that she heard Gray's song. This isn't the first trouble Perry's encountered with"Dark Horse." In early 2014, a Change.org petition called for the song's ancient Egyptian-themed video to be pulled from YouTube because of a brief shot that showed a man wearing a pendant representing the Arabic name for God, Allah. The man is later zapped into a pile of dust, along with the pendant -- the latter's destruction is what angered some Muslims.
