Madonna and Live Nation hit back against late concert start lawsuit
The singer’s management team and the concert promoter said they intend to ‘defend this case vigorously’ citing a technical issue for a delay to a show in Brooklyn
Last week, two fans proposed a class action lawsuit against the pop star, 65, for allegedly starting her three shows at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn two hours later than planned, which they claim breached her contract with concertgoers who “had to get up early to go to work” the next day. “Defendants’ actions constitute not just a breach of their contracts … but also a wanton exercise in false advertising, negligent misrepresentation, and unfair and deceptive trade practices,” wrote lawyers for Michael Fellows and Jonathan Hadden. They accused the three defendants of “unconscionable, unfair, and/or deceptive trade practices” for the delayed start time, which the pair argues constitutes a breach of contract and “a wanton exercise in false advertising”.
