Every since Justin Timberlake released his album, The 20/20 Experience, similarities between him and Robin Thicke have been pushed into the spotlight.  But, is Justin Timberlake getting special treatment because of who he is?

Back in March when Robin Thicke released his music video for Blurred Lines, YouTube immediately banned it.  It was considered "too racy" and tasteless.  It was eventually restored.  The video contained several women dancing around in nude underwear with their breast exposed.  Thicke called it art, but YouTube didn't agree.

Now, Justin Timberlake has put out a video for his song Tunnel Vision, and the similarities are uncanny.  He too has several women dancing around in nude underwear, topless.  In some scenes, the ladies are completely naked.  Art?  It appears that way since no one at YouTube pulled the video or made a fuss.

Let's forget that Justin Timberlake seems to be ripping Robin Thicke off at every turn.  But it seems to me that Timberlake doesn't have to follow the same rules Thicke does.

I have found Robin Thicke's original video for Blurred Lines.  I have also included Justin Timberlake's Tunnel Vision Video and Thicke's edit version.  These videos are NSFW due to nudity.
