Is P!nk's new 'Beautiful Trauma' video a rip-off?

P!nk released the video for her new single, 'Beautiful Trauma',  last week, and it was full of surprises - namely actor Channing Tatum showing off his dance moves. But Pink's Brazilian fans were surprised for a different reason.

The 50s-themed video, which sees P!nk playing a stereotypical housewife, has been accused of ripping off Anitta's 'Essa Mina É Louca'. 

Music lovers in Brazil are crying foul, and have taken to social media to accuse P!nk of plagiarism. 

"As soon as I saw Pink's video, I immediately thought it was very similar to Anitta's video," one Twitter user wrote.

Another added: "The aesthetic of Pink's 'Beautiful Trauma' music video reminds me a lot of Anitta's 'Essa Mina É Louca' music video." 

Here's a look at P!nk's video.
