Madonna was being sued by two fans in New York who had bought tickets to a show at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn that didn’t begin until 10.30pm, two hours later than the advertised time, and didn’t end until about 1am.

The story was greeted with eye-rolling in many quarters, with the sense that this was merely an instance of those crazy litigious Americans
