TL;DR Summary

Three former dancers have filed a lawsuit against Grammy-winning singer Lizzo and her dance team captain, Shirlene Quigley, accusing them of creating a hostile work environment during Lizzo's Special Tour. The dancers claim they were subjected to sexual harassment, weight shaming, and religious harassment. The lawsuit alleges that Lizzo invited employees to touch nude performers and handle sexual props. Lizzo's representatives have not yet responded to the allegations.
