Things have been taking a turn for the worse for Lizzo recently. After a lawsuit was filed against her for sexual harassment and weight-shaming, The Daily Mail reported that she was no longer headlining the 2024 Super Bowl Halftime show. An NFL insider even commented that the scandal has tarnished her brand appeal, and now her team is desperately trying to “save her sinking ship.”
It's no wonder that the gig has become a huge opportunity for any artist that secures it. The upcoming Super Bowl LVIII in February 2024 in Las Vegas was expected to be headlined by Lizzo, whose concerts have sold out arenas across the globe. Last year, Rihanna actually broke records with the most-watched halftime show in Super Bowl history.
Unfortunately, the latest allegations have put her reputation at risk. An insider commented that with more people coming forward with accusations, it's increasingly difficult for her to get out of this situation. Her statement denying the claims made by her three former dancers, Crystal Williams, Noelle Rodriguez, and Arianna Davis, has so far done little to help her case.
The trio appeared on Good Morning America to discuss their lawsuit, where they accused Lizzo of being fat-phobic. Davis even noted that “hurt people hurt people”, and the fact that six other people have joined the dancers in their legal pursuit is a testament to that.
At this point, it's unclear if Lizzo will be able to recover from this. An insider pointed out that whether she speaks out or stays silent, it doesn't look like she can make this situation any better. It's a difficult time for the “Truth Hurts” singer, and only time will tell how she'll be able to come out of this.
