NEW YORK, March 28 — Dua Lipa won the dismissal yesterday of a lawsuit in Manhattan accusing the British pop star of copying her 2021 megahit Levitating from a 1979 disco song.

US District Judge Katherine Polk Failla said L Russell Brown and Sandy Linzer failed to show "substantial similarity" between Levitating and their song Wiggle and Giggle All Night, though some listeners could hear similarities.
