Madonna Wins Lawsuit Over Late Start at Miami Concert

Image
Photo: Madonna (Instagram) Pop superstar Madonna won a court case in Miami after a fan sued her for starting a concert 90 minutes late. The fan, Luis Marmolejo, claimed Madonna tricked ticket buyers by delaying her April show at Miami’s Kaseya Center. Judge Jorge Pérez Santiago ruled that the concert’s scheduled 8:30 p.m. start was only an estimate and that an opening act went on as planned before Madonna’s set. The fan’s lawsuit argued the late start and the hot venue broke Florida laws about fair treatment for customers. The judge, however, said the fan’s complaint about the heat was a personal feeling and didn't count as a legal issue. “If it was too hot for you, it’s too cold for somebody else,” the judge commented during the October 24 hearing. Photo: Madonna (Instagram) Marcus Corwin, the lawyer for the fan, said he would appeal the decision. “My job is to help consumers get what they feel they've bargained for,” Corwin told Reuters. Madonna’s lawyers did not comment. Co

Steph Curry's Ankle Injury Explained: What It Means For His Return

Image
Photo: Steph Curry (Instagram) The Golden State Warriors will be without their star, Steph Curry , for at least two games against the New Orleans Pelicans this week. Curry injured his left ankle during Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers, and the team announced he will miss the next two games and be re-evaluated on Friday. Dr. David E. Oji, an orthopedic and sports medicine expert from Stanford Medicine, shared some insight into Curry's injury. He explained that Curry has strained the peroneal tendons, which are on the outside of the ankle and help with movement. This injury isn’t like a regular ankle sprain; it could involve stretched or even slightly torn tendons. In some cases, these tendons can even cause small bone fractures. Curry’s return depends on how serious the strain is. Dr. Oji said that if it’s a minor strain, Curry could return in about one to two weeks with rest and rehab. But if there are small tears or more damage, it could take longer — even severa
