The lawyers argue that the plaintiffs haven&#8217;t proven they&#8217;ve truly suffered any kind of &#8220;injury&#8221; due to her tardy start.<\/p>\n<p>The fans complained that the tickets for Madonna&#8217;s show at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, in December said 8:30 p.m., but Madonna didn&#8217;t get on until 10:30 p.m. In her response, obtained by ABC Audio, Madonna&#8217;s lawyers argue, &#8220;No reasonable concertgoer\u2014 and certainly no Madonna fan \u2014would expect the headline act at a major arena concert to take the stage at the ticketed event time.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, her lawyers point out that one of the fans wrote on Facebook the following day that the show was &#8220;incredible, as always!&#8221; and neither of them indicated they left before the show ended.<\/p>\n<p>The lawyers also point out that Ticketmaster informed buyers that &#8220;event date and time are subject to change.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>As for the &#8220;injury&#8221; the two fans claim to have suffered, Madonna&#8217;s lawyers say the lawsuit speculates that some fans might have had trouble getting a ride home at 1 a.m. or may have needed to wake up early the next day for work. However, the fans themselves do not claim that this happened to them personally.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Indeed, Plaintiffs do not plead any injury that they themselves suffered by spending the night at an &#8216;incredible&#8217; concert,&#8221; reads the response. As a result, Madonna&#8217;s lawyers are asking for the complaint to be &#8220;dismissed in its entirety with prejudice,&#8221; meaning it cannot be refiled.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Copyright \u00a9 2024, ABC Audio.
