Homer Simpson and UsherIn one of the most hilarious accusation of plagiarism ever, an intrepid YouTuber has compiled evidence that a portion of the Usher song 'OMG' was actually inspired by a Christmas carol penned by none other than Homer Simpson. Yes, that's Homer Simpson from the TV show 'The Simpsons'.

Homer's festive song aired during the 14th season in 2003 and goes like this "Christmas in December/Wow wow wow/Gimme tons of presents/Now now now."

Even better, though, is that the oh-so-sophisticated Usher lyrics sound like Homer could've written them too "Honey got a booty like/Pow pow pow/Honey got some boobies like/Wow oh wow." Listen to the song mash-up after the jump and you be the judge.
