Finnish teenpop singer ripping off Kyarypamyupamyu's style?



Finnish teenpop singer Tuuli recently released her debut music video titled "Salaisuudet" with many similarities to those of Kyarypamyupamyu's music video "PONPONPON." The most notable one being the main set of the music video which could just be an identical copy of the main set of "PONPONPON". See for yourself below!




Compare it with Kyary's PONPONPON

Well... I wouldn't call it a 'rip off' since Kyary isn't really THAT original and one of a kind...
It's the same as assulting Kyary for being a rip off of Lady Gaga. They might be somewhat similar, but electropop and fancy dresses aren't reserved only for Gaga. It's the same here - being cute and making electropop music doesn't make her a copy of Kyary.

The music video feels more similar with Rebecca Black's Friday.

The one who designed the set for the chorus part was definitely inspired by PONPONPON. I mean, the floor, curtains, the wall and the cute stuff at the sides are clearly the same but in different colours.

All I have to say is that Finnish seems to be such a sweet and poetic language~~

ia, I was surprised since this is the first time I've heard a Finnish song

"Well, at least she didn't copy the song too lol."

disagree. i desperately want a finnish PONPONPON oh my god.

I really like it ^^ TBH singers, just like writers etc tend to get inspired one by another.

...So many dislike on the original vid O_o

It's clearly inspired. The set designer or director obviously saw the PonPonPon pv and was inspired by the set, use of green screen and 3D word type popping up. Yes, it's close to a rip off (the striped wallpaper and patterned floor particularly gives it away) but they probably also thought no one would notice and it's just lazy creative production on their part more than anything.

cute
sadistic_dance 29th-May-2012 11:13 pm (UTC)
It does look like Kyary's set with less stuff in it.
morroska 29th-May-2012 11:59 pm (UTC)
the finnish language fucking owns
feel_my_mind 30th-May-2012 12:20 am (UTC)
OR we accept that people like Katy Perry and countless other before then have been doing this style longer than that Kyary girl. (It actually reminded me of one the Brilliant Green's girl alter ego)
prismboy 30th-May-2012 01:51 am (UTC)
Did you see the both sets though? They're exactly the same. The point is not that they're both cute and colorful, the point is that she directly copied the same set in Kyary's PONPONPON.
unofficialdear 30th-May-2012 12:28 am (UTC)
Lmao that is craptastical.
If your gonna try to rip an artist off...for the love of god at least do it well.
kame_94 30th-May-2012 03:04 am (UTC)
OP keeps saying the set are exactly the same, but.. I mean, seriously, what's the same? The wallpaper & curtains, and the fact that she's in the center with stuff on both sides?? That's supposed to be like a dollhouse. I've seen many dollhouses with the same sort of background, not only in music videos.

The song isn't similar at all.
The video, as a whole, isn't nearly the same..
Just because one artist has a video where at one point they're in a room with blue candy-pop wallpaper and pink curtains, doesn't mean another artist can't have a video where at one point they're in a room with pink candy-pop wallpaper and pink curtains. That's stupid. The background is so generic to begin with.

That'd be like me saying "Oh, this person has a dollhouse set just like (insert artist here) had.. They're copying them!!" and crying plagiarism. It's stupid.


Oh, and OP, you might want to change the title of this.. Kyary's "style" isn't being ripped off at all. That title makes it seem like she's the first one to be in that genre of music, or that her style of music is only hers. You're meaning to say the set is "exactly the same", so it would be "music video," not style.
And like Kyary's "style" isn't a rip-off.. C'mon, really?
prismboy 30th-May-2012 03:13 am (UTC)
First of all, I never said anything about the music. The music isn't the same at all. I'm talking about the music VIDEO. And the whole dollhouse thing, it isn't JUST the background. It's everything. It's basically Kyary's set but with less stuff. And in the music video the girl is also riding a scooter and whatnot just like Kyary.



I mean, are you blind... or? Did you really watch both videos all the way through?

And yes, the title is correct. That music video is Kyary's "style" and this girl copied it. No doubt on that. Who is Kyary ripping off btw? Just wondering.

i can see the set being identical. at least they didn't go for completely wacky outfits and ripped off the song.

prismboy 30th-May-2012 03:16 am (UTC)
Rofl I just had to take a screenshot too just to show them, jfc. Some of these people are delusional.
mimoiikit143 30th-May-2012 04:33 am (UTC)
she's pretty I can tell ya that :)
kazeyumi 30th-May-2012 04:51 am (UTC)
just came here to say how badly made that poster is. ._.
bridgetothesky 30th-May-2012 07:47 am (UTC)
the set is super similar. yeah may look like she copied kyari-'s style and whole pop fashion. copy or not, the graphics in the music video are done so much more cheapy. seems like a school project. i hope that's not her official cd cover. the inconsistency of it kills me. if it was intentionally copied they should have copied the quality too.
mjspice 30th-May-2012 07:51 am (UTC)
Ehhh...wasn't Tuuli accused of ripping off someone before? Or was it someone else. Anyways, I don't really like either of the songs or the videos tbh. :S:S
nemesisyume 30th-May-2012 09:23 am (UTC)
Well I'm moving to Sweden bye
chibi_rei 30th-May-2012 09:35 am (UTC)
Putting aside whether it's a copy or not -- can you really put all the blame on the singer? Aren't video concepts the job of the director or some sort of designer (this is an honest question so no hate please)?
annhh 30th-May-2012 10:43 am (UTC)
I agree. she probably doesn't even know who pamyu is
annhh 30th-May-2012 10:29 am (UTC)
omg can't control my feels

this was interesting... let's clean some air:





or if you like something different. Chisu is the only finnish artist I listen to so.. lol bear with me
