Pop star Lizzo is celebrating a legal victory after a judge dismissed allegations of fat-shaming from a 2023 lawsuit filed by three of her former dancers. The singer, whose hits include body positive anthems such as Good As Hell and Juice, marked the development with a video statement posted to her Instagram and TikTok feeds. There was no evidence that I fired them because they gained weight, Lizzo said. They were fired for taking a private recording of me without my consent and sending it off to ex-employees. While those specific allegations have been dropped, the case against Lizzo and her production company will continue, over claims that three dancers were subject to sexual harassment. Lizzo's team has called the lawsuit a fabricated sob story, but a Los Angeles judge ruled that the case could move forward last year. Arianna Davis, Crystal Williams, and Noelle Rodriguez claim they were pressured into attending sex shows and interacting with nude performers between 2021 and 2023. The claims include that Lizzo pressured Ms. Davis to touch the breasts of a dancer in a nightclub in Amsterdam. Other incidents cited in the case include dancers being asked to eat fruit from the naked bodies of sex club workers. Lizzo's lawyers have appealed the decision to let those claims go to trial, arguing that the outings were part of her creative process and thus shielded by First Amendment free speech protections. In recent statements, Lizzo has adamantly denied all allegations against her, emphasizing her commitment to supporting individuals with larger bodies and her intent to contest the lawsuit until the truth emerges.
