How could she? How could Lizzo, of all people, be responsible for allegedly creating a “hostile and unsafe work environment”?
That’s the question being asked this week after it was revealed that three of the rapper/singer’s former dancers are suing her for body discrimination, religious discrimination, and sexual harassment, among other charges. Details include allegations that Lizzo coerced her employees into touching naked sex workers and would privately shame her dancers for gaining weight.
This damning portrait of Lizzo was recently corroborated by filmmaker Sophia Nahli Allison, who dropped out of making a documentary about Lizzo’s life and career. “She is a narcissistic bully,” Allison said Tuesday in an Instagram Story, “and has built her brand off of lies. I was excited to support and protect a Black woman through the documentary process but quickly learned her image and ‘message’ was a curated facade.”
