Charlotte MacInnes, the actress known for The Deb, has released a new song whose lyrics are being widely read as a thinly veiled reference to her crushing defeat in a defamation case against Rebel Wilson. A court has dismissed MacInnes's lawsuit against Wilson entirely, with the judgment coming down firmly in the Hollywood star's favour, and MacInnes is reportedly preparing to appeal the ruling rather than let the matter rest.

The case stemmed from claims MacInnes made about Wilson's conduct on social media, but the court rejected her action outright. Wilson responded by saying she was "standing up for what I believe is right", while commentators have seized on the telling lyrics of MacInnes's latest track as an apparent nod to the bruising legal battle and its outcome. With an appeal now on the cards, the public dispute between the two actresses looks set to continue despite the court's decisive verdict.
