The article highlights multiple instances where Madonna’s fans have sued her over late concert starts. In the most recent lawsuit filed by a group of attendees from her Washington, D.C., concerts in April 2019, they accused Madonna and Live Nation Entertainment Inc. Of false advertising, intentional misrepresentation, and unfair trade practices due to promoting 8:30 pm starting times when performances were considerably later, specifically between 10:30-11pm on all three nights at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn. This isn’t Madonna’s first legal dispute regarding tardy shows as she faced a similar case after pushing back her “Celebration Tour” stop in Miami by two hours last year, with fans alleging they were unable to attend due to prior work and school commitments the following day. The singer has also been criticized for starting late during other concerts on this tour, including its opening night at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center where she was reportedly an hour behind schedule after soundchecking until doors opened at 7:30 pm. Madonna suffered a medical emergency in June 2019 that forced her to postpone the “Celebration Tour” before eventually taking the stage again last December, following recovery from a serious bacterial infection requiring ICU treatment. In an interview with W Magazine about touring experiences recently, she stated how nothing makes her happier than sharing joy on and off-stage moments during such ventures since this unified action results in exceptional performances that are both artistically fulfilling as well as family bonding opportunities for the singer’s six children who accompany her.
