The iconic Madonna, who is touring the world after recovering from health problems, is facing a lawsuit from two fans for postponing her New York show and accusing her of fraudulent business practices.
Madonna, the legendary American singer, is at the center of a legal controversy after she was sued by two of her followers: Michael Fellows And Jonathan Hadden. Fans filed the lawsuit in federal court in Brooklyn, accusing the artist of “unbearable business practices” for starting three concerts two hours late.
In the lawsuit, Fellows and Hadden argue that the shows at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn as part of the Celebration tour were delayed by more than two hours from the time stated in the brochure and advertising for the originally scheduled event:30 According to the plaintiffs, the shows began after 10:40 p.m.
Next to Madonnathis is what the lawsuit suggests Live Nation And Barclays Center as a co-defendant. Technically, the complaint alleges breach of contract, violation of New York trade practices, violation of false advertising laws, and various forms of misconduct, including unjust enrichment.
What do the plaintiffs say?
“The defendants' actions constitute not only a breach of their contracts … but also a widespread practice of false advertising, negligent misrepresentation, and unfair and deceptive commercial practices,” argue lawyers for Fellows and Hadden, who claim they did not pay for their tickets if they knew the concerts would start so late.
Due to delays last December, presentations continued past midnight. This caused hardship for fans, who were affected by “limited public transportation, limited ridesharing, and/or increased public or private transportation costs,” the lawsuit says.
The lawsuit also highlights that this delay is not an isolated incident, as the “Like a Virgin” and “Material Girl” singer has delayed other concerts in the city and that this has occurred over the course of her career, with her too, repeatedly Rebel Heart Tour be in 2016 Madame X in 2019-2020 and other tours.
