Lizzo Faces New Lawsuit For ‘Racially Charged Work Environment’
Lizzo was once again sued by a former worker who claimed that behind the scenes, the performer permits bullying, harassment, and racial discrimination. This lawsuit came the day before Lizzo was scheduled to accept an award in recognition of her efforts promoting diversity and social justice. Asha Daniels was the former employee, who filed the lawsuit, and said, “I felt like I was living in a madhouse. It was totally shocking.” She continued, “I was listening to this Black woman on this huge stage have this message of self-love and caring for others and being empathetic and being strong and standing up for others. And I was witnessing myself, the dancers and the background vocalists and my local team in every city be harassed and bullied regularly.” Lizzo’s rep said, “We will pay this as much attention as it deserves. None.”
