Lizzo’s Former Backup Dancers Respond After Singer Slams ‘Outrageous’ Lawsuit

etcanada.com:

Lizzo’s former backup dancers are responding to the “Juice” hitmaker’s statement that she posted Thursday. The musician fired back at the claims made by Arianna Davis, Crystal Williams and Noelle Rodriguez in the lawsuit, which accused her of sexual harassment and creating a hostile work environment, among other things.

Los Angeles attorney Ron Zambrano — who is representing plaintiffs Davis, Williams and Rodriguez and is a partner and Employment Litigation Chair at West Coast Employment Lawyers — then said in a statement obtained by ET: “Lizzo has failed her own brand and has let down her fans.

Her denial of this reprehensible behaviour only adds to our clients’ emotional distress. “The dismissive comments and utter lack of empathy are quite telling about her character and only serve to minimize the trauma she has caused the plaintiffs and other employees who have now come forward sharing their own negative experiences.

While Lizzo notes it was never her intention ‘to make anyone feel uncomfortable,’ that is exactly what she did to the point of demoralizing her dancers and flagrantly violating the law.” READ MORE: Lizzo’s Dance Captain Shirlene Quigley Thanks God In Instagram Clip After Being Accused Of Religious Harassment In Lawsuit A video did the rounds online this week showing dancer and former “Watch Out for the Big Grrrls” star Davis singing Lizzo’s praises in April 2023 after the alleged incidents in the lawsuit took place, TMZ reported.
