Lizzo Faces Lawsuit Alleging Sexual Harassment and Body-Shaming

Three former dancers of singer Lizzo have filed a lawsuit accusing her of sexual harassment and creating a hostile work environment. The dancers claim that Lizzo pressured one of them to touch a nude performer at a strip club in Amsterdam and subjected them to an "excruciating" audition after falsely accusing them of drinking on the job. The lawsuit also alleges that Lizzo called attention to one dancer's weight gain and berated and fired her after she recorded a meeting due to a health condition. The suit names Lizzo, her production company, and the dance captain as defendants and includes claims of religious and racial harassment, false imprisonment, and interference with economic advantage. Lizzo's representatives have not yet responded to the allegations.
