"Hung Up" on Madonna's continued tardiness, two fans in New York have filed a lawsuit against the pop star for a late concert start time.
In the lawsuit filed Wednesday in Brooklyn and reviewed by EW, concert attendees Michael Fellows and Jonathan Hadden accuse Madonna, Live Nation, and Barclays Center of "unconscionable, unfair, and/or deceptive trade practices" for offering tickets to the Dec. 13 Celebration Tour at Barclays marketed at an 8:30 p.m. start time, only for the pop star to take the stage sometime after 10:30 p.m.
As a result, by the time the show let out after 1 a.m., Fellows and Hadden were "confronted with limited public transportation, limited ride-sharing, and/or increased public and private transportation costs" at the late hour, per the suit. Additionally, attendees of the weeknight show "had to get up early to go to work and/or take care of their family responsibilities the next day."

I actually kind of side with the fans. 2 hours late is crossing a line.
