This was reported last year, but I just found out about it this week.
I thought this really funny, that Usher gets his inspirations from The Simpsons.
I don't keep up with hip-hop, so this whole incident made me look into Usher... apparently he just released an album called Raymond v. Raymond and currently on tour*.
* Incidentally, the singer was booed off the stage a few days ago, apparently due to bad lip-syncing (official statement reads: due to illness Usher was not able to complete his show).

Usher is accused of ripping off ...Homer

AMERICAN R'n'B star Usher has been accused of copying a song by... HOMER SIMPSON.
In his smash hit OMG, he sings: "Honey got a booty like pow, pow, pow. Honey got some boobies like wow, oh wow."
Simpsons fans say he copied the idea from a Christmas tune sung by the cartoon dad in a 2003 episode called Dude, Where's My Ranch?
Homer - whose catchphrase is D'oh - sang: "Christmas in December, wow wow wow. Give me tons of presents, now now now."
