American rapper Lizzo has been sued by three of her former dancers in Los Angeles Superior Court. The dancers accuse the singer of creating a hostile work environment when performing on her Special Tour this year.

The lawsuit alleged the dancers had been “exposed to an overtly sexual atmosphere that permeated their workplace,” which included “outings where nudity and sexuality were a focal point.”

The plaintiffs, Arianna Davis, Crystal Williams and Noelle Rodriguez, accused Lizzo of sexual, religious and racial harassment, disability discrimination, assault and false imprisonment and more, according to the law firm representing them.

The defendants in the suit are Lizzo, using her full name Melissa Jefferson, her production company and the tour’s dance captain, Shirlene Quigley.

According to the suit, Quigley made sexual comments and “made it her mission” to proselytize her Christian beliefs.

One night in a nightclub in Amsterdam, the lawsuit says, Lizzo invited employees to touch nude performers. One dancer said she felt pressured to do so, even after she made clear that she was uncomfortable with the situation.

The lawsuit also alleges that white managers from Lizzo’s production company, Big Grrrl Big Touring, Inc., accused black dancers of being lazy and unprofessional and having bad attitudes.

“Not only do these words ring familiar as tropes used to disparage and discourage Black women from advocating for themselves, but the same accusations were not levied against dancers who are not Black,” a complaint cited in the statement said.

Some of Lizzo’s statements to the dancers made plaintiff Davis, who was diagnosed with an eating disorder, believe she had to “explain her weight gain and disclose intimate personal details about her life in order to keep her job,” the lawsuit alleges.

Lizzo’s breakout hit “Truth Hurts” shot to the top of charts in 2019, and Lizzo has championed self-love and diversity by releasing empowerment anthems, a size-inclusive clothing line and videos on social media.

Lizzo’s “About Damn Time” won this year’s Grammy for the record of the year.

“The stunning nature of how Lizzo and her management team treated their performers seems to go against everything Lizzo stands for publicly,” Ron Zambrano, a lawyer for the plaintiffs, said in a statement on Monday.

Diana Reddy, an assistant professor at the School of Law at the University of California, Berkeley, said the allegations could undermine Lizzo’s body positive message and result in a settlement.

“Employment discrimination plaintiffs don’t fare particularly well in court,” Reddy added, and proving a hostile work environment is difficult. As such, it is likely the plaintiffs’ lawyers are hoping for a settlement.
