QuoteOne of Madonna's New York neighbors says the superstar's loud music and frequent dance sessions are causing a commotion.

Karen George, of Manhattan, lives above Madonna in a building on Central Park.

She said in a lawsuit filed Friday against the building's co-op board that the Material Girl is using her apartment as a rehearsal studio, forcing neighbors to endure "blaring music, stomping and shaking walls," for up to three hours each day.

George complained about "unreasonably high-decibel, amplified music" and vibrations pouring through walls, ceilings and radiators.

The building's board says it has already threatened to evict Madonna.

Madonna's representatives didn't immediately respond to a request for comment.

You would think somebody as rich as Madonna could afford an actual studio....but then this is Manhattan so maybe she spent all her fortune just to buy that one apartment.

She may be above the law, but even she can't take on the awesome power of a Manhattan co-op board and emerge unscathed.
