Lizzo is facing a sexual harassment lawsuit filed by three former dancers, who have accused her of weight-shaming, religious and racial harassment, assault, and false imprisonment.

Experts believe that the scandal threatens Lizzo's brand, as the allegations contradict her message of inclusivity and positivity. Lizzo has denied all accusations but has faced criticism for her initial response. While she may not be canceled, the impact on her reputation will depend on the outcome of the lawsuit and any potential additional allegations.
