Madonna Sued For 'Subjecting' Fans 'To Pornography'
Huff PostLOADING ERROR LOADING Madonna is facing yet another lawsuit concerning her recent “Celebration” tour. The pop icon, whose boundary-pushing output throughout her career made her a star, was accused Wednesday in a complaint obtained by Entertainment Weekly of subjecting fans to “pornography without warning” at her March 7 show at the Kia Forum in Los Angeles. Lipeles claims he was unaware there would be “topless women on stage simulating sex acts” at the concert, and alleged Madonna had the air conditioning turned off throughout the venue, creating temperatures that made him physically ill. “Forcing consumers to wait hours in hot, uncomfortable arenas and subjecting them to pornography without warning is demonstrative of Madonna’s flippant disrespect for her fans,” argued the suit, which was first reported by entertainment site The Blast. The singer had was sued in December for “unconscionable, unfair, and/or deceptive trade practices” by two fans who attended her December concert in New York, who claimed the show kicked off two hours behind schedule. In their motion to dismiss, obtained by EW, the pop star’s lawyers wrote that “no reasonable concertgoer — and certainly no Madonna fan — would expect the headline act at a major arena concert to take the stage at the ticketed event time.”
