Madonna sued over sexually explicit tour performance, lack of AC in venue

[KARAH RUCKER]

MADONNA’S SEXUALLY EXPLICIT TOUR PERFORMANCE IN LOS ANGELES HAS LANDED HER IN A LEGAL BATTLE WITH A FAN –

WHO IS SUING FOR WHAT HE CALLS BEING EXPOSED TO “PORNOGRAPHY WITHOUT WARNING” AFTER WATCHING WHAT HE SAYS WERE “TOPLESS WOMEN ON STAGE SIMULATING SEX ACTS.”

HE ALSO RAISES ANOTHER CONCERN IN HIS LAWSUIT –

ALLEGING THE SINGER PURPOSELY REFUSED TO ALLOW A/C IN THE STADIUM –

WHICH IS NOT THE FIRST TIME FANS HAVE COMPLAINED OF MADONNA NOT WANTING THE A/C RAN DURING HER SHOWS.

THE SINGER HAS A REPUTATION FOR BEING OUTSPOKEN ABOUT SEXUALITY.

THAT WAS MADE APPARENT IN HER STYLE OF PERFORMANCE DURING HER LATEST TOUR.

SOME FANS LOVE IT – AND SOME DID NOT.

A FAN WHO ATTENDED THE MARCH 7TH SHOW IN LOS ANGELES SAYS HE WAS “BLINDSIDED” AND “DECEIVED” –

SUING FOR WHAT HE CALLS “BEING FORCED TO WATCH TOPLESS WOMEN ON STAGE SIMULATING SEX ACTS” AND SAYS HE “FELT LIKE HE WAS WATCHING A PORNOGRAPHIC FILM BEING MADE.”

THEN –

THERE’S THE PORTION OF THE LAWSUIT FOCUSING ON THE LACK OF AIR CONDITIONING IN THE ARENA.

THE FAN ALLEGES “THE TEMPERATURE INSIDE THE KIA FORUM WAS UNCOMFORTABLY HOT **AS REQUIRED BY MADONNA** WHO REFUSED TO ALLOW THE A/C TO BE TURNED ON.” THE LAWSUIT STATES THE FAN WAS “PROFUSELY SWEATING AND BECAME PHYSICALLY ILL AS A RESULT OF THE HEAT. 

IN THE LAWSUIT – THE FAN GIVES ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF CONCERTGOERS COMPLAINING OF NO A/C AT A MADONNA SHOW IN FLORIDA IN 2019 –

THE LAWSUIT ALLEGES FANS WERE CHANTING FOR A/C AND MADONNA TOLD THEM THEY COULD TAKE THEIR CLOTHES OFF IF THEY WERE HOT.

THE LAWSUIT IS ALSO SUING OVER MADONNA’S TARDINESS TO PERFORM.

A THEME IN OTHER LAWSUITS AGAINST MADONNA BY HER FANS.

THE SINGER IS BEING SUED FOR FALSE ADVERTISING AND EMOTIONAL DISTRESS.

MADONNA HAS NOT COMMENTED ON THE LAWSUIT.
