Lizzo forced dancers to ‘eat bananas’ from sex workers’ vaginas during Amsterdam trip: bombshell lawsuit

The truth really does hurt.

Three of Lizzo’s former dancers are suing the “Good as Hell” performer, as well as Big Grrrl Big Touring and Shirlene Quigley, for allegedly subjecting them to endure weight-shaming, sexually denigrating behavior and pressuring them to participate in disturbing sex shows.

Plaintiffs Arianna Davis and Crystal Williams claim in the lawsuit filed Tuesday and obtained by Page Six that they were eventually fired while the third plaintiff, Noelle Rodriguez, resigned over Lizzo’s “stunning” behavior.

While on a concert trip with the Grammy Award-winning artist to Amsterdam in February 2023, the plaintiffs claim Lizzo invited them for a night out on the town — which ended in the city’s Red Light District.

The area is known for its sex theaters, sex shops and clubs and bars where nudity is on full display.

“… 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,” the lawsuit states, adding that Lizzo allegedly “pressured” and “goaded” Davis into touching one of the nude performer’s breasts.

The plaintiffs claim that, just a month later, Lizzo, 35, deceived them once again into attending a nude show; therefore, “robbing them of the choice not to participate,” the documents state.

Davis also claims in the lawsuit that at one point she had no choice but to “soil herself” on stage during an “excruciating” re-audition, “fearing the repercussions” of excusing herself to go to the restroom.

Eventually, Lizzo allegedly fired Davis “on the spot” after learning Davis had recorded one of their meetings even though it was meant to have “a copy of the notes” the artist provided.

Rodriguez resigned shortly thereafter out of solidarity for Davis and the “disrespect” Lizzo allegedly showed her.

The lawsuit claims she “feared that Lizzo intended to hit her and would have done so if one of the other dancers had not intervened.”

The plaintiffs are suing for general and special damages, as well as punitive damages and attorneys’ fees.

“The stunning nature of how Lizzo and her management team treated their performers seems to go against everything Lizzo stands for publicly, while privately she weight-shames her dancers and demeans them in ways that are not only illegal but absolutely demoralizing,” the plaintiffs’ attorney, Ron Zambrano, said in a statement. 

Reps for Lizzo didn’t immediately return Page Six’s requests for comment. Page Six has also reached out to the dancers for further comment.
