Three years after the monumental success of the ‘Madame X Tour,’ Madonna had some thrilling news for her fans. She announced her comeback with ‘The Celebration Tour.’ “I’m looking forward to exploring as many songs as possible in hopes of giving my fans the concert they’ve always been waiting for,” Madonna shared on social media. But just as the excitement was building up, disaster struck. The iconic singer was found “unconscious” at her home, landing her in intensive care due to a “serious bacterial infection,” as her manager Guy Oseary revealed.
Because of her health issues, Madonna delayed her tour by three months, kicking it off in London. She then dazzled audiences in major European cities, including Germany, Italy, Spain, and France, before bringing the show stateside. Stops included Brooklyn’s Barclays Center, Las Vegas, Atlanta, and Los Angeles.
Complaints for “Pornography With No Warning”
Two months after attending Madonna’s Los Angeles concert, Justen Lipeles decided enough was enough. He filed a complaint against the pop legend for various grievances: tardiness, excessive use of playback, and a scorching venue. According to Justen, Madonna insisted the air conditioning stay off inside the Kia Forum, leaving fans sweltering. “When fans complained about the heat, Madonna asked them to take off their clothes, which was not reasonable,” the complaint states.
But the heat was just the tip of the iceberg. Lipeles also accused Madonna and concert organizer Live Nation of “pornography without warning.” He claimed that the audience had no choice but to watch topless women simulating sexual acts on stage. “Forcing consumers to wait for hours in hot, uncomfortable locations and subjecting them to pornography without warning is a demonstration of Madonna’s casual lack of respect for her fans.” As of now, Madonna has yet to respond to these allegations.
Madonna Sued By Fan for Two-Hour Delay
Don’t think this is Madonna’s first run-in with the tardiness police. After running two hours late for her Brooklyn show, Michael Fellows and Jonathan Hadden didn’t just fume—they sued. They targeted not only Madonna but also Barclays Center and Live Nation for “deceptive business practices.”
Rather than caving, Madonna took legal action to get the suit dismissed. Her lawyers argued, “The plaintiffs claim spectators who left the theater at 1 a.m. may have had difficulty finding transportation home or faced an early start at work the next day. But this doesn’t amount to legal harm.” They insisted the fans had “got exactly what they paid for: a full, high-quality show by the queen of pop.”
