Paramore poke fun at Justin Bieber with mock artwork

Paramore have responded to allegations of artwork plagiarism involving Justin Bieber by mocking the singer on Tumblr.

The Canadian singer has been criticised for seemingly using a piece of Paramore fan art created in 2011 for his new song 'We Were Born For This'.

The original image used the rock band's 'Riot!' album artwork text to create a piece for the group's song 'Born For This'.

Paramore singer Hayley Williams brushed off the plagarism talk on Twitter, but the band have now uploaded mock single artwork images in the style of Bieber's 'Believe' album on Tumblr.

They joked: "Limited-edition ‘Ain’t It Fun’ singles coming soon!"

Paramore fans rounded on the 20-year-old singer when his artwork was revealed, with one Twitter user saying:

"Laziest artist award goes to Justin Bieber for literally googling pics for his next single and picking out a paramore one."
