The choreographies are indeed very similar. The first clip (the trio) is from Djamilla (Germany) and her new dancing partners. The second is from BDSS (Amar Gamal). Who was complaining that her copyrights were stolen? Amar Gamal? Well, the choreo isn't completely stolen, but it is very very similar. One could dance also completely different on this music (o.k., similar movement repertory, but different combinations and different expression). But many people cannot really listen to the music, so they tend to copy choreographies and just vary them a little bit.
