Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Madonna sued again over concert delays
Caption: Madonna sued again over concert delays. Months after facing a lawsuit over a delayed concert in New York City, the Queen of Pop has been sued again by Washington D.C. Concertgoers who have accused her of showing "total disrespect" for her fans. In the lawsuit filed in D.C. federal court on Friday, three fans accused Madonna of taking the stage two hours late for her show at the Capital One Arena on 18 December. The suit also named concert giant Live Nation as a defendant. According to Billboard the concertgoers´ lawyers wrote: ”Forcing consumers to wait hours for her performance in a hot, uncomfortable arena is demonstrative of Madonna's arrogant and total disrespect for her fans. In essence, Madonna and Live Nation are a consumer's worst nightmare.” The lawsuit comes weeks after the Material Girl hitmaker's legal team filed a motion to dismiss a class-action lawsuit filed by two fans in January after one of her Celebration Tour concerts in New York City started hours later than scheduled. In their motion to dismiss, Madonna's legal team insisted that a two-hour delay did not warrant a lawsuit. ”Plaintiffs speculate that ticketholders who left the venue after 1 a.m. might have had trouble getting a ride home or might have needed to wake up early the next day for work. That is not a cognizable injury.” THIS VIDEO MUST NOT BE EDITED FOR LENGTH TO COMBINE WITH OTHER CONTENT
