He gained international fame in 2013 with his single "Blurred Lines",
which reached number one on the US Billboard Hot 100.
He is currently a judge on the Fox musical competition show The Masked Singer.
Thicke is the son of actress Gloria Loring and actor Alan Thicke. He married actress Paula Patton in 2005;
in 2014, their separation and divorce were covered extensively by the tabloid press.
"Blurred
Lines" is a song by American singer Robin Thicke
featuring fellow American singer Pharrell
Williams and American rapper T.I., from Thicke's studio
album of the same name(2013). The song was
solely produced by Williams. It was released as the album's lead single on March
26, 2013, through Star Trak
Recordings and Interscope Records.
For the lyrics, Thicke said the song is about his former wife Paula Patton.
Musically, "Blurred Lines" is na R&B and pop track with
instrumentation consisting of bass guitar,
drums, and percussion.
The single was negatively reviewed by many
music critics, with some saying it glorified rape culture. Commercially, the song topped the
charts of 25 countries and reached the top five of six others. "Blurred
Lines" spent 12 consecutive weeks atop the US Billboard Hot 100, making
it the longest-running single of 2013 in the United States. In June 2018, the
song was certified a diamond certification by the Recording Industry Association of America(RIAA).
It became one of the
best-selling singles of all time, with
sales of 14.8 million, simultaneously breaking the record for the largest radio
audience in history. The song was nominated for awards, including Record of the
Year and Best Pop Duo/Group Performance at the 56th Annual Grammy Awards.
A music video for "Blurred Lines" was directed by Diane Martel and was
released on March 20, 2013, while an unrated version was released on March 28.
In both videos, Thicke, T.I., and Williams are featured with models Emily Ratajkowski, Elle Evans, and
Jessi M'Bengue performing several activities, including the models snuggling in
bed with Thicke and sitting on a stuffed dog. After being on the site for just
under one week, the unrated version of the video was removed from YouTube for
violating the site's terms of
service. Many critics panned both visuals, with some calling it
misogynist and sexist.
To promote the song, Thicke performed on
televised live events including the 2013 iHeartRadio
Music Festival, the The Ellen
DeGeneres Show, and a highly controversial
performance with American singer Miley Cyrus at the 2013 MTV
Video Music Awards. The song became the subject of
a bitter legal dispute with the family of American singer Marvin Gaye and Bridgeport Music, who
argued the song infringed on copyrights to Gaye's 1977 single "Got to Give It Up".
Williams and Thicke were found liable for copyright
infringement by a federal jury in March 2015, and
Gaye was awarded posthumous songwriting credit based on the royalties pledged
to his estate.
Everybody get up
Everybody get up
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey

Tried to domesticate you
But you're an animal
Baby, it's in your nature
Just let me liberate you (hey, hey, hey)
You don't need no papers (hey, hey, hey)
That man is not your maker
And that's why I'm gon' take a good girl
I know you want it
I know you want it
I know you want it
You're a good, girl
Can't let it get past me
You're far from plastic
Talk about getting blasted
I hate these blurred
lines
I know you want it
I know you want it
I know you want it
But you're a good
girl
The way you grab me
Must wanna get nasty
Go ahead, get at me (everybody get up)
What do they make
dreams for
When you got them jeans on?
What do we need steam for?
You the hottest bitch in this place
I feel so lucky (hey,
hey, hey)
You wanna hug me (hey, hey, hey)
What rhymes with, "Hug me?" (hey, hey, hey)
Ok, now he was close
Tried to domesticate you

One thing I ask of
you
Let me be the one you back that ass to
Go, from Malibu to Paris, boo
Yeah, I had a bitch, but she ain't bad as you
So hit me up when you pass through
I'll give you something big enough to tear your ass in two
Swag on, even when you dress casual
I mean it's almost unbearable
In a hundred years not dare, would I
Pull a Pharside let you pass me by
Nothing like your last guy, he too square for you
He don't smack that ass and pull your hair like that
So I just watch and wait for you to salute
But you didn't pick
Not many women can refuse this pimpin'
I'm a nice guy, but don't get it if you get with me
Shake the vibe, get
down, get up
Do it like it hurt, like it hurt
What you don't like work?
Baby, can you
breathe?
I got this from Jamaica
It always works for me
Dakota to Decatur
No more pretending
(hey, hey, hey)
'Cause now you winning (hey, hey, hey)
Here's our beginning
I always wanted a good girl
I know you want it
I know you want it
I know you want it
You're a good girl
Can't let it get past me
You're far from plastic
Talk about getting blasted
I hate these blurred
lines
I know you want it
I know you want it
I know you want it
But you're a good
girl
The way you grab me
Must wanna get nasty
Go ahead, get at me
Everybody get up
Everybody get up
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey.
