Owen Wilson has released a statement responding to the claim by members of Steely Dan that “You, Me and Dupree” was a rip-off of their song “Cousin Dupree.”:
“I have never heard the song ‘Cousin Dupree’ and I don’t even know who this gentleman, Mr. Steely Dan, is. I hope this helps to clear things up and I can get back to concentrating on my new movie, ‘Hey Nineteen.'”
