Pitbull sued over cancelled gig
By CMU Editorial | Published on Wednesday 2 December 2009
The El Potrero Night Club in California is suing Pitbull, after the rapper cancelled a gig at the venue just four hours before he was due on stage in May this year.
El Potrero’s owners claim that they paid Pitbull $28,000 in advance, but that he pulled out after arriving at the venue and deciding that their equipment was not to his liking. I haven’t seen their equipment, so I can’t comment, but the folks at El Portrero clearly think it’s fine, so are seeking $80,000 in damages from the rapper, according to legal papers filed in LA this week.
