Everything’s comin’ up jurisprudence! So it is for the lovely Madonna, who—along with her manager, Fred DeMann, and record label, Sire—is being sued by Camille Barbone, who purports to have discovered Ms. Ciccone living in a rehearsal studio in 1980... after which she “set her up in an apartment, put her band on salary, clothed her, fed her... all the things you do.” Hmm, guess we’ll have to use our Rock V Roll News Imagination Desk to finish this.
