Scherzinger did promote the tour, it’s acknowledged in the complaint, but then the pandemic halted music touring worldwide.
She “now refuses to participate in the tour,” states the complaint, adding she “demanded to renegotiate the terms of the MOU.”
According to the complaint, Scherzinger now wants to be a 75% owner with final decision-making authority, and she’s refusing to participate in the reunion tour unless she gets what she wants. And now because tour dates can’t be confirmed, Live Nation is said to be demanding $600,000 that it put up.
Because of COVID, tours are only slowly ramping up at this point, and this suit comes with a not extremely common claim of anticipatory breach of contract (along with other contract claims and one for fiduciary duty).
Scherzinger’s attorney didn’t immediately have comment.
