Miley Cyrus' "Flowers" was hit with a copyright lawsuit in 2024 over Bruno Mars' "When I Was Your Man," and the judge handling the case is unlikely to dismiss it. Billboard took to the streets to gather public opinion about the lawsuit.

A federal judge pushed back Monday on Cyrus' claim she can't be sued for copyright infringement by a firm that bought a share of Bruno Mars' "If I Was Your Man"

Yesterday’s hearing (March 10) for that filing does not appear to have gone Cyrus’ way. According to Rolling Stone, the presiding judge, U.S. District Judge Dean D. Pregerson, is leaning toward rejecting Cyrus’ motion.

Miley Cyrus has garnered quite the bouquet of views on her “Flowers” music video, which recently surpassed a billion plays on YouTube.
