Vine Star Steals Material
Popular Viner Brittany Furlan recently plagiarized a Vine video (not her first offense) posted months ago by Vine user Jayme Karales (author, Disorderly, director, Practice Makes Perfect).
From Karales' website:
29-year-old Vine star Brittany Furlan has recently come under fire for a video titled "Uber drivers be like…", released days ago. In it, Furlan dons a stereotypical accent and garb to portray her Uber driving character. Since then, she's been accused of 'racism' by a number of her fans.
Today it's been revealed that Furlan's controversial video isn't even original, but a carbon copy of a popular Vine released earlier this year by comedy duo Jayme Karales and Kenney Dorcely.
Their video, also titled "Uber Drivers Be Like…", shares the same premise, editing style, and remarkably similar jokes to Furlan's video. The difference? Theirs was released 4 months ago…
This is not the first time Furlan has been accused of stealing Vines and jokes. Many have noted the similarities between one her Vines ("How this song should really go…") and that of Kurtis Conner's. Like "Uber Drivers Be Like…", the two are nearly identical save for a few key differences. It appears to be the same case here, just less subtle.
