Lizzo Responds to Sexual Harassment Lawsuit, Denies Allegations of Misconduct

The Grammy-winning artist claims the accusations from former dancers are false and emphasizes the consensual nature of the events in question.

Lizzo addressed the sexual harassment lawsuit filed by three former dancers during an appearance on the 'Baby, This Is Keke Palmer' podcast, denying all claims against her.
The lawsuit alleges that Lizzo pressured dancers to engage with nude performers at an Amsterdam club, created a hostile work environment, and engaged in weight-shaming and harassment.
Lizzo stated that the events at the Amsterdam club were consensual and voluntary, emphasizing that no one was forced to participate and that the venue has operated under similar practices since 1945.
The plaintiffs' attorney argued that Lizzo failed to recognize the power dynamics at play, which could make employees feel pressured to comply with her invitations and requests.
Separate legal actions against Lizzo, including a lawsuit from a former stylist alleging workplace harassment, are ongoing, though Lizzo has been dismissed as an individual defendant in one case due to jurisdictional limits.
