MUMBAI: Pop singer Demi Lovato has been accused by vocalist Alexis Krauss and guitarist Derek Edward Miller of the pop band Sleigh Bells, of stealing one of their new songs.
The duo openly called out Lovato on Twitter as they pointed out that their ‘Infinity Guitars’ and ‘Riot Rhythm’ might have been illegally sampled on her track ‘Stars’ which is part of her latest album ‘Confident’, reports aceshowbiz.com.
The group took to Twitter to address the issue, tweeting directly to the ‘Cool For the Summer’ singer.

While Lovato has not responded to the tweet, some of her fans have, and they are clearly not accepting it.
However, fans claim that the group just wants some attention.
“The least you could do is attempt to be professional. Don’t air your dirty laundry on the internet,” one fan tweeted.
Another fan agreed and shared, “Please contact Demi or her team instead of tweeting her on social media.”
‘Stars’ was co-penned by Savan Kotecha as a bonus track off Lovato’s latest album, which debuted and peaked at number two on the Billboard 200 chart. ‘Infinity Guitars’ and ‘Riot Rhythm’, meanwhile, are both featured on Sleigh Bells’ 2010 set ‘Treats’.
