It also claimed that the former “disgruntled” employee “failed to perform the work that she was assigned” before she “refused to show up for work”.They also claim that the stylist was terminated after less than three weeks of employment for “abandoning her post” on the day of Lizzo’s concert in Paris, France in March, and argued that the case should be dismissed as it was filed in the wrong jurisdiction as the plaintiff “is a New York resident who worked for a Delaware corporation in Europe”.Responding to the pop star’s attempt to dismiss the lawsuit, the plaintiff’s lawyer Ron Zambrando said: “This motion was expected and is yet another Hail Mary by Lizzo’s team to try to shift blame to the victims, as she has done to the three other plaintiffs who have sued her for similar allegations of harassment, disability discrimination and retaliatory termination.”He continued: “Lizzo and her lawyers can continue trying to rationalise her illegal and wretched conduct, but we remain committed to seeking justice for our clients and look forward to our day in court where Lizzo can explain her behaviour in a public forum.”This isn’t the first time that Lizzo has faced legal action from her former employees.
