Madonna has been hit with a new lawsuit surrounding her Celebration Tour.
On May 30, Justen Lipeles filed a class action lawsuit in a Los Angeles court against the singer and it stems from her March 7 show at The Kia Forum in Inglewood.
Lipeles is making claims of negligent misrepresentation, intentional infliction of emotional distress, false advertising, and breach of written contract.
According to court documents obtained by PEOPLE, the complaint alleges the singer subjected attendees “to pornography without warning,” including topless women simulating sex acts onstage.
Lipeles’ attorneys at Lipeles Law Group said he brought his 11-year-old sister to the show and was “shocked.”
“Imagine taking your 11-year-old daughter to a pop concert,” the statement obtained to Entertainment Tonight read. “When in the middle of the concert, the women on stage remove their tops and are completely topless. They then begin to act out sexual situations including cunnilingus, and digital penetration amongst other pornographic type situations. This is with absolutely no warning to anyone who is offended by this type of content, and especially those who bring children to the concert.”
The lawsuit claims that the singer and Live Nation “lulled” fans to buy “expensive tickets” to her Celebration Tour and “purposely and deceptively” withheld information when it came to marketing the shows.
The plaintiff claimed that the “Material Girl” turned off the air conditioner and Lipeless became ill in the heat.
“For many hours everyone was forced to sit in what felt like a sauna,” the statement continued. “This was no accident, Madonna insisted that the AC stay off and when people in the crowd complained, she said she is not turning the AC on and if they didn’t like it, they should take their clothes off. People were physically in discomfort and sweating like crazy. In other words, people paid thousands of dollars to sit and suffer while watching live porn, including kids, with no warning.”
He also claimed Madonna didn’t sing her songs live and they were lip-synced.
Like many other lawsuits against the singer, Lipeles cited Madonna’s tardiness. The show was slated to start at 8:30 p.m. but she didn’t hit the stage until 10:00 p.m.
Lipeles also named Forum Entertainment, Kia Forum, Acrisure Arena, the Golden 1 Center, Chase Center in the lawsuit.
Other California venues were named in the suit because the plaintiff claimed the singer was late to all of her shows in the Golden State, according to ET.
The plaintiff’s lawyers said they are “in the process of slightly amending the complaint.”
There’s been no response related to this new lawsuit but in the past, the star’s legal team has filed a motion to dismiss saying “no reasonable concertgoers would expect the headliner to take the stage at the ticketed event time.”
In January, some fans in New York filed a lawsuit against Madonna because her show at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center started late.
