Remember when American award-winning artist Lizzo said the allegations lobbied against her were too outrageous to be true? Well, the artist has found herself in the middle of another harassment lawsuit!
Yeah, I know what you are thinking... it is getting a little problematic and out of hand.
The 'Good As Hell,' crooned is getting sued again this time around by her wardrobe tour stylist. Things are really not looking good for the 35-year-old musician.
Lizzo's stylist identified as Asha Daniels, is suing her over what she terms as overseeing a “hostile, sexually and racially charged” work environment! She also maintains she was subjected to a “culture of racism and bullying” while on tour with the artist.
Asha who joined Lizzo's tour in 2023 to work in wardrobe claims the work was gruelling, sometimes going from 6 AM-2 AM all while getting refused breaks.
The accusations are also targeting supervisors of Big Grrl Big Touring among them Lizzo's team member Amanda Nomura whom Asha maintains was brutal, and often made racist and fatphobic comments.
She also alleges that Amanda told her she wasn't allowed to dress sexy around Lizzo as the artist would get jealous when her boyfriend was around other beautiful women. Like, excuse me what?
In the official court documents which were filed yesterday (Thursday, 21st September) in Los Angeles Superior Court Asha says she alerted Lizzo's management team to the behavior, and claims Lizzo's tour manager, Carlina Gugliotta, advised her to privately film Amanda's conduct, but Asha chose not to as she felt that would be unethical.
Asha notes she eventually brought all of her concerns to Carlina, but was eventually fired before her contract was set to end.
Just last month the artist and her team were sued by 3 of her former employees launching a series of the first sexual harassment, body shaming, and creating hostile work environment allegations lobbied against her.
On her Instagram page, she went on to refute the allegations terming them as too outrageous to be true.
The legal action included accusations of sexual, religious, and racial harassment, discrimination, assault, and pressuring a dancer to touch a performer's breasts.
"These last few days have been gut-wrenchingly difficult and overwhelmingly disappointing," started off the 'Truth Hurts' hitmaker.
She went on to add how she felt the allegations had dragged her in the mud by her face. Lizzo cried over how the allegations had badly put her character in question.;
"My work ethic, morals and respectfulness have been questioned. My character has been criticized.
Usually I choose not to respond to false allegations but these are as unbelievable as they sound and too outrageous to not be addressed”Lizzo wrote in a statement on her Instagram.
