Jolin Tsai's MV accused of plagarising Agyness Deyn's perfume advertisement 蔡依林新专辑跟滨崎步(右)造型对比

According to reports from Hong Kong, the MV for the song 'Real Man (大丈夫)' in 'Butterfly (花蝴蝶)', the first album that Jolin Tsai(蔡依林) is releasing under her new company, has been accused by netizens of plagarising a perfume advertisement featuring Agyness Deyn, a famous model from England.For the album, Jolin's look was also accused of copying Ayumi Hamasaki's (滨崎步) cover page for a magazine and her new album. Added to that, her MV for her main single 'Real Man' has also been accused of being lifted from Agyness Deyn's perfume advertisement. Some netizens said: "Her songs style is copied from Lee Hyori, her image from Ayumi, now even her MV has to be copied from someone else!" There were also images from youtube clips pinned up for netizens to compare.In the MV, there was a scene were Jolin was wearing a western-style suit with long pants, and after tossing her hair, she cuts off the sleeves from her suit, and at the end she rips off her long pants and it become a pair of sexy mini-shorts. Though it appears that it is full of creativity, but when we compare it to Agyness Deyn's advertisement, we see that the two scenes are exactly the same as each other. Even though her company claims that it was 'purely coincidental', and her fans reason that there was bound to be similarities in the entertainment circle, it is hard to shake off the suspicion after Jolin has yet again been accused of plagarism.

蔡依林MV被轰涉抄袭英国名模香水广告
新浪娱乐讯 北京时间3月12日消息，据香港媒体报道，蔡依林(Jolin)在加盟新公司后推出首张专辑《花蝴蝶》，近日被网友狂轰主打歌《大丈夫》MV抄袭自英国名模阿格妮丝-迪恩(Agyness Deyn)的香水广告。
　　专辑当中的造型乃抄袭于滨崎步的新碟及杂志封面，而主打歌《大丈夫》MV，被指是抄袭于英国名模阿格妮丝-迪恩的一个香水广告。有网友更直言：“她的歌路抄李孝利，造型抄步姐(滨崎步)，现在就连MV都要抄人！”并贴上两者的youtube片段作比较。
　　MV中有一段Jolin身穿西装长裤现身，在拨弄一阵头发后撕去了长袖上衣的袖口，最后更撕去长裤变身性感热裤，视觉效果吸引之余创意十足，但在对比Agyness Deyn的广告片段后，发现两者竟是一模一样，无论由动作以至拍摄背景都大同小异。虽然其公司表示一切“纯属巧合”，而她的fans也力撑娱乐圈大都互相“参考”，但也难洗Jolin被指再次抄袭别人的嫌疑。(俐俐/文)
