The pop diva Madonna recently fined £135,000 by Wembley Stadium for breaking a strict curfew when she had to perform at the venue earlier in August.
The concert was meant to start at 8.30pm but Madonna didn’t come on stage until 9.10pm. She was almost 40 Minute late. The gig ended at 11.10pm so she was quite a bit over. Her people knew about the possible implications for going over the curfew but this is a pretty hefty fine, even for Madonna. She was fined £50,000 for every 15 minutes beyond the curfew.
Artists are told that they must wrap up their gigs by 10.30pm when they play at the stadium, but it is claimed that Madonna ran over by 40 minutes when she brought her ‘Sticky & Sweet’ world tour to London on September 11.
