Madonna's Eurovision 2019 Performance Leads to a Lawsuit
Madonna‘s Eurovision performance has led to a lawsuit.
The KAN Israeli public broadcaster and producer of this year’s singing competition filed a lawsuit on Thursday (September 12) against Live Nation and Live Nation Israel, Variety reported on Friday (September 13).
The lawsuit claims that Madonna’s representatives violated the terms of their agreement and reneged on financial promises. The lawsuit is reportedly for 1.375 million shekels, or $390,000. A court date has not yet been set, and Live Nation has not issued a statement.
KAN claims they provided Madonna with technical and logistical support that went “beyond the Eurovision production, costs that were supposed to be covered by the singer’s team. The additional support included projectors, headphones, additional stage assistants, tents, security and other extra staff.”
KAN alleges that Live Nation agreed to cover those costs but never paid.
