Lizzo has recently made headlines after her former dancers accused her of sexual harassment and discrimination. Crystal Williams, Noelle Rodriguez, and Arianna Davis claim that the Grammy Award-winning star forced them to perform inappropriate acts while on tour in Europe.
Lizzo has vehemently denied the allegations, branding them ‘outrageous’ and ‘sensationalised.’ Her lawyer Marty Singer even released a statement saying that the dancers’ lawsuit was a ‘sham’. This was in response to newly-released photos of the backup performers ‘happily carousing’ and ‘gleefully reveling’ at a topless show in Paris.
Now, the legal battle has taken an ugly turn as Lizzo plans to countersue the dancers. Neama Rahmani, an attorney for the accusers, told TMZ: ‘Of course, they wanted to keep their jobs. They had bills to pay just like everyone else but they finally had enough of the abuse. We stand by every claim in the lawsuit and look forward to trial.’
Ron Zambrano, the attorney for the dancers, has also hit out at Lizzo’s ‘attempt at intimidation’. He stated that her team was using ‘scare tactics, bullying and victim shaming’ to suppress the truth and hide her hypocrisy.
Despite the legal battle, Lizzo has returned to social media and teased more music on the way. She also reassured fans that she is ‘doing good’ during this difficult time.
It remains to be seen how the legal battle between Lizzo and her former dancers will unfold. No matter the outcome, it’s clear that the singer’s reputation has been put on the line and her team will have to work hard to protect her image in the future.
