Tuesday, December 16, 2025 - Lizzo has reacted publicly after a key part of the lawsuit filed against her by former dancers was dismissed, making it clear she intends to contest every remaining allegation until the case is fully resolved.
In a silent Instagram video shared on Monday, December 15,
the singer addressed the development through on-screen text, stating that the
fat shaming claims central to the sexual harassment lawsuit had been thrown out
because they lacked merit. The lawsuit was filed by Arianna Davis, Noelle
Rodriguez and Crystal Williams.
According to Lizzo, the court removed the fat shaming allegations after finding no evidence to support claims that anyone was dismissed due to weight gain. She said the dancers were let go for secretly recording her without permission and later sharing the footage with former employees.
The Grammy winner said the accusations have weighed heavily
on her since they surfaced in 2023, stressing that she has consistently
celebrated and promoted body positivity throughout her career. She added that
she trusted her legal team to handle the matter and believes the dismissal
confirms she is on the right path, expressing hope that the rest of the case
will be resolved in a similar way.
Last week, Lizzo’s lawyer, Marty Singer, alongside his
partner Melissa Y Glass, said the dropped claims were undermined by sworn
statements from 18 witnesses. According to them, the strength of that evidence
led the former dancers to abandon their appeal over the dismissed fat shaming
allegations.
