As the famous "Queen of Pop" in the United States, Madonna has been in constant turmoil in the past two years.
(Madonna’s recent photo, picture from The meeting was delayed until October before it officially started.
finally waited for the concert to start. Just this Wednesday, was sued to court by two of her fans.
It’s common for fans to lose followers, but it’s rare to see people who lose followers return, even go to court. What's even more bizarre is that the reason why fans sued Madonna was because she was late?

These two fans said that they attended Madonna’s concert held at the Barclays Center in New York on December 13.
According to the promotion, the concert was supposed to start at 8:30 pm, but they waited until 10:30 before she arrived belatedly and sang on stage.
Because the concert started too late, the whole concert was extended backwards. By the time the performance ended, it was already past one in the morning...
This caused a lot of trouble to the two fans.
They wanted to go home, but there was not much public transportation left, and taxis and carpooling were too expensive. By the time they finally got home, it was already very late, which affected their work and family life the next day.
They told the court that if they had known the concert would end so late, they would not have bought the tickets at all.

These two fans believe that the behavior of Madonna and the tour organizer to postpone the concert is an "unreasonable, unfair and deceptive trade practice" and violates the purchase agreement. A ticket is a contract between the two parties.
They are currently looking for more fans who attended the Madonna concert to file a class action lawsuit. The specific claims have not been announced yet. In short, this matter is hopeless...

In fact, it is quite common for large-scale events such as concerts to be postponed due to various reasons.
For example, last November, Taylor Swift postponed her "eras tour" concert in Rio de Janeiro due to the danger of extreme weather.

Speaking more recently, just two days ago, Canadian rapper Drake also announced on social media that he would postpone his performance in Denver due to an ankle injury.

But Madonna’s situation is not the same as theirs. First of all, she does not have a valid reason. Secondly, it is not the first time that she has been sued in court for being late...
As early as 2019, Madonna He was once sued by fans for postponing a concert.
At that time, a fan spent more than 1,000 US dollars to purchase tickets for her performance 4 months in advance. As a result, two months before the performance, Madonna and the organizers temporarily changed the performance time, postponing the concert originally scheduled for 8:30 pm by two hours.
Not only that, the ticketing company also specifically emphasized that does not allow fans to refund tickets due to dissatisfaction with the time.

This fan was dissatisfied with the concert time and was unable to return or transfer the tickets without losing money, so he took Madonna to court in anger.
A month later, the fan took the initiative to withdraw the lawsuit. People speculated that money might have settled everything.
Unexpectedly, Madonna not only failed to take warning, but instead showed off on social media. She posted a video of her performance and proudly said: "You all have to understand one thing, and that is, the Queen will never Will be late.”
(picture from I heard that she was 4 hours late once. I also wonder why more people didn't sue her, but at least her fans should know that she doesn't value her fans.
But I guess this case will eventually end It will be settled...

This is too disrespectful to the fans.
I went to a Taylor Swift performance in June. The ticket said 6:30 and the opening was 6:30. It started to warm up; it was written that Taylor Swift would perform at 8:00, and she appeared on the stage on time.
It was impressive.

Ironically, she used to be criticized for being late as a backup dancer. They impose fines, but she can be late for how many hours?

Yes, her behavior is very bad.
Her fans are also at the age where they want to go to bed early, they have money, time and ability to sue her.
If she thinks that a 60-year-old Madonna can still be held in the palm of everyone's hands like a 30-year-old Madonna, that's stupid.
Your fans are willing to support you, and you should work hard for your fans too.

I hope fans can win.
