Business tycoon Gautam Adani responds to the reports that global icon Taylor Swift will perform at his son, Jeet Adani's wedding.
Singer Taylor Swifts lawyers have asked a federal judge to dismiss the copyright lawsuit regarding her 2014 hit track “Shake it off“.
According to the lawyers’ argument on Wednesday, the phrase “players gonna play and haters gonna hate” is a musical cliché that should be in the public domain, reports variety.com.

In a footnote, they also cited numerous other references to “players” and “haters” in pop culture, including the 1977 song “Dreams” by Fleetwood Mac, which includes the lyric — “Players only love you when they are playing“, and “Playa hater“, the 1997 Notorious B.I.G. song.
