Lady Gaga on August 5, 2011 was slapped with a lawsuit claiming her hit song "Judas" on the new album "Born This Way" was copied from a similar tune by a Chicago-based singer and songwriter. Rebecca Francescatti, who filed the suit in U.S. District Court in Illinois on August 3, alleges "Judas" infringes upon the copyright of her song "Juda," which she recorded in 1999.
