Ciara Sued by Gay Bar: Songstress Bails on $10,000 'The Factory' Appearance Deal Day Before 2013 L.A. Pride Parade Performance, Reps Claim 'Lawsuit Bogus'

TMZ reports that songstress Ciara is currently being sued by the popular West Hollywood gay bar "The Factory" for bailing on a $10,000 appearance deal. Apparently Ciara backed-out of the event (scheduled for Friday, June 7) just one day before the main L.A. pride week celebration... the 2013 L.A Pride parade. According to reps for the 27-year-old "Goodies" beauty, the lawsuit is "totally bogus" - Ciara never officialed a deal.

TMZ recently obtained "The Factory" lawsuit which states that Ciara signed a $10,000 deal to appear at The Factory on June 7... just one day before she's set to perform on the main stage at the L.A. Pride parade. Allegedly, Ciara did mention that she wouldn't be able to "perform" at the popular gay bar because of restrictions in her contract with the L.A. Pride event ... however, she made it seem like an "appearance" would work just fine.

Ciara then unexpectedly pulled out of the party appearance on June 3... leaving The Factory with no big-name star to help kick-off their pre-Pride parade bash.

Now the club is suing her for breach of contract - they want the "Body Party" songstress to pay for all the money the club spent to promote her appearance. They also want her to fork over the estimated cash the bar'll be losing Friday night because off her last-minute no show.

But according to Ciara's rep, the entire thing is bogus. A person close to the sitch tells TMZ:

"Ciara's commitment to perform at LA Gay Pride on Saturday night prevented her from making such a Friday night appearance. Despite being notified early last week that Ciara could not appear, the Factory continued to market and promote Ciara's appearance... The reason for the continued marketing/promotion is unclear, as it is not known why the Factory would intend to continue to mislead the public, to cause damage to the LA Gay Pride festival and to attempt to portray Ciara in a negative light."
