Consider this your WTH news of the day.
In case you hadn’t heard, Madonna is suing her former friend Darlene Lutz. She claims Lutz stole a bunch of her stuff, including her panties and a letter from Tupac.
Why is this in the news? Well I guess the items were supposed to be auctioned off, but Madonna was able to get an emergency order to block the sale of the allegedly stolen items.
However, Madonna admitted under oath that she has no evidence that her former friend stole her panties. (Why is this in the news? WHY?)
From TMZ:
In the deposition, lawyers for Lutz asked Madonna, “Do you have any good-faith basis to allege that my client, Darlene Lutz, took these underwear from you?” Madonna replies, “I do not.”The lawyer pounded away, making it clear all Madonna had was an unsupported hunch.
Madonna also admits that she gave the worn undies to former boyfriend Peter Shue. She then makes a tortured argument that she mailed them to Shue but doesn’t know if he actually received them so technically she still owned them.
The lawyer asked, “You’re not claiming in this lawsuit that those underwear are still your property, are you?” She says, “It depends.” Lawyer: “What does it depend on?” Answer: “Whether he actually received them.” Peter actually told TMZ he did indeed get the panties.
It seems Madonna has a habit of sending her boyfriends panties.
And there’s this … it seems Madonna may have a thing for sending people her panties. Lawyer: “In addition to Peter Shue, how many boyfriends have you sent panties to?” Her lawyer says, “You don’t have to answer that,” and Madonna jumps in, “I couldn’t.”
So that’s awkward.
Anywho, Madonna can’t prove her former friend stole her panties. There’s your useless Madonna news of the day.
