Ricky Martin is sued by his former manager, Rebecca Drucker, who says she owes her $ 3 million in commission, writes Deadline.

Drucker says she originally represented Martin from 2014 to 2018, but returned in 2020 when his "personal and professional life was in absolute turmoil," according to court documents.

She says she has continued to help him earn millions of dollars through tours (including with Enrique Iglesias) by signing contracts and sponsorships and helping him get back on track. Drucker claims that she protected him even when he was threatened with "accusations of ending his career".

The manager also claims that when she asked him for the money, he threatened to keep quiet and asked her to sign a non-disclosure agreement (which she did not do). She claimed that Martin - real name Enrique Martin Morales - lied to her and manipulated her, which forced her to give up in April this year.

Drucker is suing $ 3 million plus damages. Part of the complaint is: "Rebecca Drucker saved Ricky Martin карие's career"

"There is only one problem: Martin has completely and maliciously refused to pay Rebecca millions of dollars in commissions owed to her under their managerial contract. He added: "With his flagrant breach of contract, Martin betrayed Rebecca and took her loyalty, commitment and exceptional service to him for granted.

"What's worse, Martin incited a toxic work environment in which he constantly harassed, manipulated and lied to Rebecca, forcing her to resign as his manager in April 2022."

Martin has sold more than 70 million records worldwide and has two Grammys and five Latin Grammys in his name.
