Ricky Martin Hit With $3M Unpaid Commissions Lawsuit; Ex-Manager Claims She Saved Him From "Potentially Career-Ending Allegation"

QuoteRebecca not only acted to advance Martin's career but also rendered services to protect it. In one example among many, in or around September 2020, Martin received a letter from a highly-respected litigation attorney in Los Angeles, California. Rebecca stood next to Martin as they read the legal letter for the first time. In that letter, the attorney threatened to publicly file a legal complaint against Martin if he did not pay money to resolve a claim against him alleged by this attorney's client. After reading the legal letter, Martin collapsed. He expressed his extreme fear to Rebecca that if this threat were carried out, the consequences to Martin would be catastrophic.

In response, Rebecca quickly brought in one of the top defense attorneys in Los Angeles who Rebecca had previously retained for a client. Based on Rebecca's advice, Martin retained this prominent litigator to defend against this devastating claim. Needless to say, the claim ultimately never saw the light of day. Once again, Rebecca saved Martin's career with the exceptional managerial and advisory services that she provided
to him during this ordeal.

QuoteUnpaid commission dust-ups between reps and their former clients are a virtual sub-genre in the LASC docket. However, in the case of Martin and Drucker, the latter clearly and bluntly wants the former to know she "will not be silenced." "For years, she protected Martin from the consequences of his reckless indiscretions. Rebecca did so not only because she was his manager, but also because she thought that Martin was her dear friend," reads the suit filed by attorneys Joshua M. Rosenberg and Armound Ghoorchian at Venable LLP.

Now, with assertions of "a toxic work environment," "a particularly ugly incident in Dubai involving Martin and his representative José Vega" in 2018, a "personal life ...in disarray," and "Martin's nonpayment of taxes, and his substance abuse," Drucker and her lawyers have done little to hide the fact they believe they have the goods on Martin if he doesn't settle.
