Ricky Martin’s ex-manager Rebecca Drucker has made it very clear that she wants her former client to pay up. According to the New York Post, Drucker worked for the Latin singer from 2014 to 2018 and believes that she helped revitalize Martin’s career when she managed him again from 2020 to 2022. However, she’s now taking a stand and has slammed the artist with a $3 million lawsuit for allegedly not holding up his end of their bargain. “There is just one problem: Martin completely and maliciously refused to pay Rebecca the millions of dollars in commissions that he owes her under their management agreement,” a legal complaint obtained by Deadline stated.
Drucker not only helped manage all of Martin’s business ordeals, but she also helped him navigate an unspecified “career-ending allegation” back in September 2020, per Variety. The former business manager claims Martin managed to “[emerge] unscathed and [proceed] with his professional resurgence” and ultimately bounced back into the limelight. The “Vuelve” artist allegedly never paid Drucker for her services throughout that time, which prompted her to file a lawsuit against him.
According to Billboard, Drucker was reportedly responsible for coordinating Martin’s 2021 comeback tour with Enrique Iglesias. Although his North American tour brought in a whopping $19 million, she says the artist has yet to pay his dues.
