He also alleges that the move created an uncomfortable environment and even resulted in some becoming physically ill.As for the explicit nature of the live show, Lipeles said in the lawsuit that the fans were subjected to “pornography without warning” and “forced to watch topless women on stage simulating sex acts” on stage.“Forcing consumers to wait hours in hot, uncomfortable arenas and subjecting them to pornography without warning is demonstrative of Madonna’s flippant disrespect for her fans,” the suit stated, as per The Independent.The lawsuit sees Madge sued for breach of written contract, negligent misrepresentation, intentional infliction of emotional distress, false advertising, negligence/negligent infliction of emotional distress and unfair competition.
