Dienel think song “Sorry” is too similar to her own “Ring The Bell” from her 2014 album “Baby.” Although riff only heard the first eight seconds of “Sorry” will be repeated six times, according Dienel.

– The unique features of the female vocal riff is identical to the song “Sorry,” she says about her own song “Ring the Bell” to TMZ.

Casey Dienel argue that it is highly likely that her song has been copied since it was very popular, was streamed more than 800,000 times online, and was pointed out as a favorite in the magazine Rolling Stone.

Ms. Dienel says she asked Justin Bieber to stop acting with the song in December, but he did not answer. She requires an unspecified amount of money in damages and that he stops acting with singing, according to TMZ.
