Lizzo’s current dancers, the Big Grrrls and Big Boiiis, praised the singer
Lizzo‘s current dancers shared their praises over the singer just weeks after she received a shocking sexual harassment lawsuit.
The singer’s dance group, the Big Grrrls and Big Boiiis posted a statement on Instagram on Thursday, writing,
“We have had the time of our lives on The Special Tour,”
“The commitment to character and culture taking precedence over every movement and moment has been one of the Greatest lessons and Blessings that we could possibly ask for.”
Along with the statement, the group shared a video montage of the special moments from the international trek, with the background dancers. There they shared that the tour experience has been “beyond just #Special.”
The ladies added,
“THANK YOU to Lizzo for shattering limitations and kicking in the door way for the Big Grrrl and Big Boiii Dancers to do what we love! You have created a platform where we have been able to parallel our Passion with a purpose! Not only for Us but for Women and All people breaking Barriers,”
Earlier this month, the Grammy winner and her Big Grrrl Big Touring and dance captain Shirlene Quigley were accused by three former backup dancers of weight-shaming and sexually denigrating behavior.
The plaintiffs who were identified as Arianna Davis, Crystal Williams, and Nielle Rodriguez claimed that they were even forced to participate ins ex-shows during their time in the group.
One part of the suit reveals that in February when the dancers were allegedly invited out to the Red Light District, known for its sex shops and open nude environment, during a tour stop in Amsterdam.
The lawsuit states, “… things quickly got out of hand. Lizzo began inviting cast members to take turns touching the nude performers, catching dildos launched from the performers’ vaginas, and eating bananas protruding from the performers’ vaginas.”
In the court documents, the plaintiffs further claimed that Lizzo, 35, deceived them into participating in another sex show, a few weeks later and “robbing them of the choice not to participate.”

Lizzo denied the sexual accusations in her statement
About a week later, six more women reportedly came forward with similar stories.
Lizzo, for her part, addressed the bombshell claims on August 3 in an Instagram statement.
She wrote at the time,
“These last few days have been gut wrenchingly difficult and overwhelmingly disappointing,”
“My work ethic, morals and respectfulness have been questioned. My character has been criticized. Usually I choose not to respond to false allegations but these are as unbelievable as they sound and too outrageous to not be addressed.”
She further said that she was not the villain that the women were trying to make her.
The Juice singer added,
“I am hurt but I will not let the good work I’ve done in the world be overshadowed by this,”
“I want to thank everyone who has reached out in support to lift me up during this difficult time.”
However, social media users were not convinced and gave their opinions on the statement. One wrote,
”She’s paying them so of course they’re going to say this.”
A second one wrote,
”Lizzo hired them but said “You have to say exceptionally nice thinks about me or no more ice cream & cake for you.”
A third one wrote,
”Translation: “We’re paid well enough to put up with abuse from this foul beast”
