On Sunday’s episode of The Voice Australia, Rita Ora took over the stage to put in a performance of her own. 

The British pop star performed her latest single, a collaboration with Imanbek, called Bang Bang. 

The 30-year-old strutted around the stage in a skimpy white leotard, gyrating with dancers as she sang the tune.

Those watching at home were captivated by the performance for all the wrong reasons. 

Many couldn’t help notice that the dance tune sounds a lot like the Crazy Frog track Axel F, which was a viral hit – and a popular ringtone – in 2005. 

The song itself is a remix of the song of the same name – Axel F – from the soundtrack of Beverly Hills Cop.
