Madonna
Files $2.5 Million Suit Over Taxes : No one
is immune to the sting of taxes... not even
Madonna. According to the Associated Press, the
singer has filed a $2.5 million lawsuit against
her former financial advisers claiming they are
responsible for $2 million in state taxes she had
to shell out to New York state. Madonna, who also
heads up Maverick Records, reportedly filed the
suit against Padell, Nadell, Fine, Weinberger
& Co. on Tuesday and charges the firm with
malpractice and breach of contract. The singer,
her personal corporation, and Maverick are
reportedly named as the suit's plaintiffs, and
are seeking $2 million in compensatory damages
and $500,000 in punitive damages according to the
AP. Speaking with the news agency, the firm's
Bert Padell said that the suit was sparked after
Madonna claimed herself as a California resident
on her 1992 taxes. Padell told the AP that New
York disagreed, and came calling to the tune of
$2 million. Madonna reportedly fired the firm in
1996.
Martin On Madonna : The Rickywatch
followed MTV Online's own John Norris down
to Miami, where we waited outside a building for
several hours before someone told us that Ricky
Martin was being interviewed on the other
side of town. So with browsers at the ready, we
once again deliver the latest pronouncements from
the pedestal. And the word is his duet with Madonna,
"Be Careful," will not be the next
single as the Material Girl was unavailable for
the video. "I'm definitely recording,
shooting that video with 'the Goddess,' with
Madonna," said the excitable studmuffin.
"We're now working with which [sic]
schedule. … She's doing a movie at the
moment. She'll be doing theatre later on; so
hopefully by first week [sic] … second week
of December, we'll be shooting this video in San
Juan, Puerto Rico. Looking forward [sic]. I said
it. I'm not supposed to say this, but I said
it." Glad that's cleared up, then.
"Goldmine"
magazine July 3 issue (No.494, on sale June 18)
will have a very informative article by Bruce
Baron on Madonna's unreleased materials.
