Lizzo’s Ex-Dancers Slam Countersuit As ‘Insidious Attempt At Intimidation’

Lizzo’s former backup dancers aren’t being rattled by her countersuit.

In the suit, Lizzo’s former backup dancers accuse her of creating a hostile work environment and engaging in sexual harassment among other allegations.According to a statement shared by Lizzo’s attorney Martin Singer on Wednesday (August 23), they “intend to sue for malicious prosecution after she prevails and these specious claims are dismissed”.

Lizzo plans to hit back at her ex backup dancers’ allegations — by suing them!?

Lizzo‘s dancers received a settlement for another dispute months before three of her other dancers sued her for sexual harassment and creating a hostile work environment.The dispute, which the Los Angeles Times reports was raised in January, related to footage that was used in the artist’s 2022 documentary Love, Lizzo. The film features a scene where the dancers intimately discuss how misogyny, racism and weight-shaming have affected them, which their manager, Slay Smiles, had claimed was unauthorised.Smiles said that the documentary had “truly exploited these women and violated the emotional safety they had in those moments”.The LA Times reported that a group including the co-production company Boardwalk Pictures and a “Lizzo entity” settled the dispute in February after one of the dancers involved hired a lawyer.The footage concerned was shot in 2019 when Lizzo and the dancers were rehearsing for a performance at that year’s MTV VMAs.
