Lizzo was hit with a lawsuit from a former wardrobe assistant. She made claims of experiencing a hostile environment, not being paid fairly, and for making fat phobic racist comments. This lawsuit was later dismissed but other parts of the case may move forward. While addressing it directly she stated how upsetting these false claims have been for her and that she’s focusing on moving forward with more legal actions to ensure that what her and her company have built are not taken away.
