Lizzo has broken her silence on the recent allegations brought against her by her former backing dancers. The Juice hitmaker addressed the accusations of sexual harassment and weight-shaming in a post on Instagram, which she shared earlier this month.
The Grammy-winning singer denied the claims, dubbing them as 'sensationalised stories.' She reassured her followers that respect for women is her highest priority, and that she would never criticize or terminate an employee due to their weight.
The accusations arose when three members of her dance troupe, the Big Grrrls, filed a lawsuit against Lizzo and her touring company. The lawsuit detailed a trip to Amsterdam's red light district, where the dancers were allegedly pressured to come along on nights out for fear of losing their jobs. One visit to a club called Bananenbar also resulted in performers being encouraged to touch nude performers by Lizzo.
Since the allegations were made, Lizzo has been spotted out and about. In footage obtained by the MailOnline, she revealed she was 'doing good' and that she was 'in the studio right now.' This has led many to speculate that new music is on the way.
The 35-year-old singer's post concluded with a message of gratitude to all those who have reached out in support. She thanked them for lifting her up during this difficult time.
Lizzo's reps have yet to comment on the allegations. But fans of the body-positive star were stunned when Beyonce sent her a three-word message of support, which has been widely celebrated.
