Daddy Yankee, Singer (Facebook)

Concert promoter Diego Hernan de Iraola claims that he is suffering from health issues, particularly bleeding eyeballs, from the stress induced by Yankee’s cancellations.  

It all began when Iraola paid Yankee $820,000 up front for a 6-show tour.  Due to the singer’s popularity in South America, the two agreed to tack on four more shows to the tour. Iraola didn’t pay the additional $480,000 two days prior to the concert, but promised Yankee he’d have the money for him upon his arrival in Argentina.  

Yankee’s people weren't having it, and decided to cancel the shows.  So began Iraola’s purported nosebleeds, high blood pressure, and bleeding in the eyes.  He is now demanding the $820,000 advance to be returned to him, as well as extra cash for the chaos Yankee has created in his private and professional life.
