Lizzo’s attorneys have filed a motion to dismiss a harassment and discrimination lawsuit brought by a former employee, Asha Daniels.
The motion claims that the case is meritless and accuses Daniels of abandoning her work obligations.
Lizzo’s attorneys argue that the case should be dismissed on technical grounds as Daniels is a New York resident who worked for a Delaware corporation while Lizzo was touring in Europe, alleging no nexus to California where the original suit was filed.

In response, Daniels’ attorney, Ron Zambrano, criticized Lizzo’s team for attempting to shift blame and expressed commitment to seeking justice for their clients.
Zambrano called the motion “another Hail Mary by Lizzo’s team to try to shift blame to the victims, as she has done to the three other plaintiffs who have sued her for similar allegations of harassment, disability discrimination and retaliatory termination.”
“Lizzo and her lawyers can continue trying to rationalize her illegal and wretched conduct but we remain committed to seeking justice for our clients, and look forward to our day in court where Lizzo can explain her behavior in a public forum,” he added.
The lawsuit adds to multiple pending legal actions against Lizzo, including accusations of harassment and body-shaming from former backup dancers, all of which Lizzo has denied.
“I felt like I was living in a madhouse. It was totally shocking,” Daniels said.
“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.”
