Menudo Promoter Sues NBC for $500 Million Over Defamatory Documentary Claims

NBC is facing a massive lawsuit from Menudo’s promoter, Darrin McGillis, who claims the network's documentary, "Menendez + Menudo: Boys Betrayed," has severely damaged the band's reputation.

McGillis alleges that the Peacock streamed documentary, which first aired in 2023, falsely and scandalously labeled past Menudo members with terms like “sexual,” “molestation,” “gay,” and “homosexual,” causing significant harm to the group's brand.
