Internet thinks singer Lizzo already hinted at the allegations made against her by her former dancers in her song Rumor. Many people think this was the singer's attempt at taking charge of the narrative but it seems like she failed miserably at it as people are shocked and calling out Lizzo over the lawsuit claims.
People Think Lizzo's Rumors Song Lyrics Reveal A Lot After Singer Is Sued By Former Dancers
Social media has been in a frenzy ever since it made it to the internet that the singer Lizzo is being sued over disturbing claims of sexual abuse and hostile work environment.
Now many people are drawing comparisons between the lyrics of one of Lizzo's songs and her current situation of being sued by three former dancers.
Three dancers, who previously worked for the singer filed a lawsuit against her on Tuesday, 1 August, accusing her of sexual harassment, body shaming, and overall creating a hostile working environment.
One of the plaintiffs alleges she was pressured by the 'About Damn Time' singer to touch a nude performer at a strip club in Amsterdam.
The claims additionally report that Lizzo conducted a 12-hour audition, accusing dancers of drinking beforehand and bringing attention to one dancer's weight gain.
Allegations against Lizzo include religious and racial harassment, disability discrimination, fat-shaming, assault, and false imprisonment.
In a 44-page court document filed in the Los Angeles Superior Court, Lizzo's production company Big Grrrl Big Touring is named as a defendant alongside the musician herself.
Even though only three of the singer's former dancers are official plaintiffs but other people who used to be part of Lizzo's group have also come forward publicly to support them with claims that they faced a similar experience while working under the production company and singer.
Taking to her Instagram story, fellow former dancer of Lizzo's, Courtney Hollingquest said: "For clarification, I’m not a part of the lawsuit - but this was very much my experience in my time there.
"Big shoutout to the dancers who had the courage to bring this to light."
A clip from Lizzo's 2021 release 'Rumors', which featured fellow musician, Cardi B, has once again gone viral on social media but for reasons all wrong.
The song's release took place in the same year Lizzo is accused of having sexually harassed a former dancer and fostered a hostile working environment.
The clip features a section of the song in which the lyrics read: "Had to cut some h**s loose, yeah / NDA, no loose lips.
"Now them h**s tryna sue me / B***h, I don’t give two s***s / All the rumors are true, yeah."
People have flooded to Twitter to give their two cents on the lyrics.
One user said: "THE WAY SHE TOLD US WITHOUT TELLING US this is why ima stick with Rihanna and Beyoncé everyone else weird."
"Lizzo's song Rumors is about to get more play now than it ever did organically. Yikes," a second added.
A third commented: "Lizzo dropped a song talking about all the rumors are true as if she was getting ahead of the scandal and taking control of the narrative, but it’s not working out in her favor at all lol. The public has the accounts from other people and it just makes her look worse…"
And a fourth commented: "Lizzo’s dancers said f**k them NDA’s and all of those rumors are most definitely true. Smh."
