Uh oh, K. Michelle has found herself in more drama and may be in trouble trying to explain why her new home goods line called "The KMichelle Collection" apparently looks just like the Atlanta furniture company, Huff Furniture and Design.
According to Bossip, Michelle was blasted by the company after she announced her new line via Instagram posting photos of her upcoming project.
In the snapshot below, the singer wrote: "Can't believe this is really happening. So excited about my new home good line. It has everything from my custom designed furniture, my doggie beds, candles, bed and bath accessories. Coming to a retailer near you. Thank you so much @nicologyrules bringing my vision and passion to life. Details coming soon. Custom orders will be available! Pick your own colors"

But then she posted another bed that she said she was designer of, which grabbed the attention of Huff Furniture. The company took their Instagram account and reposted Michelle's bed along with their bed side by side and slammed the singer for her copy-cat idea.
The furniture company wrote: "They say imitation is the best form of flattery. We say it's simply poor form especially when it's done using images from within our showroom. Folks if you want to actually find a gossip page you can trust, check out @spillth3tea2 as opposed to people with an agenda instead of slanting the truth. @theshaderoominc continually post half truths to suit their interests instead of truths. Repost that! #clapbackseason"
Ooop! Well #KMichelle you've got some explaining to do! Your new furniture line looking quite familiar. Identical to be exact... Down to the showroom #HuffFurniture of ATL Ain't here for it! A photo posted by Lena Got All The Scoop! (@lenagotallthescoop) on Jul 26, 2015 at 8:14pm PDT
If you thought the company was finished, think again they added another post with a lengthy statement.
And then captioned the post with:
"This is business and business etiquette 101. Clients and friends, do business with whomever you choose. Just know, when you put your 50% deposit of hard earned money into another persons hands, you want to make dang sure that person knows business."
Huff Furniture continued, "After 59 years sitting on Peachtree, trust and believe this is not the first time and won't be the last that people try to come for us. That's okay and that's the American way. Many of our followers know I'm a female and I continually support female entrepreneurship. The difference is professionalism and ethics. I wish @KMichellemusic all the best. I just wish we had the opportunity to have met before all this so I could have mentored her along her journey in this business. #SundayNotSoFunDay"
Well dang!
But whoever helped K. Michelle design her new line seems to be drawing up the same exact looks as Huff.
