Christina Aguilera in lawsuit over 'stolen song'

Christina Aguilera has been involved in a lawsuit over allegations bosses at her record label sampled a 1968 song in her track 'Ain''t No Other Man' without paying the rightful owner.

TMZ said that the singer''s hit single uses a beat from Dave Cortez and the Moon People''s soul song ‘Hippy Skippy Moon Strut’, reports the Daily Express.

According to legal papers, filed in New York, TufAmerica bought the exclusive rights to the original song in 2004, but Aguilera''s label bosses at Sony made a deal with Codigo Music and the Clyde Otis Music Group to use the record.

Heads at TufAmerica are now asking a court to declare them the rightful owner of the song and are seeking damages.

Christina Aguilera 'arrested on PI charge'

Christina Aguilera has reportedly been arrested for public intoxication in West Hollywood.

TMZ claims that the singer was arrested on a misdemeanour charge at 2.45am, while her boyfriend Matthew Rutler was also arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol.

Sources told the site that Aguilera was "extremely intoxicated" and "unable to take care of herself".

However, they added: "If the driver had not been arrested for DUI, [Christina] would have never been in trouble."

Meanwhile, sources close to the singer have allegedly been trying to get her into a rehab programme 'for weeks'.
