Look I couldn't name one Lizzo song, so don't take me as some kind of Stan, but 'Accusation = Automatic Guilt' is a thing I have a real problem with. Eh it's a tricky argument in general but the main accusations in this case are very public with many witnesses and from three people. It would be very easy to refute if completely untrue. If that's enough to be guilty in the lawsuit is a different question. Having the director of your supposed documentary come out and say “I left after two weeks because Lizzo was terrible to me for the whole time and nobody backed me up” basically makes at least part of the accusations seem hard to refute. The other stuff would need to be clarified obviously but when it rains…

I do like Lizzo’s music (well, her last album was pretty bleh) but around the time of the twerking at the Lakers game incident, she startex to give off that “This person got very famous very fast and it could easily slip out of their control” vibe. Seems like that may have happened here.

I am all for Lizzo getting criticism for this kind of shit, but people lighting up like it's Christmas morning about it are more than a little f***ing creepy. Nothing gives people online a bigger hate boner than when someone who preaches for a good cause turns out to be fake, because it apparently then means that everyone is as closed-minded as them and gives them a brief feeling of validation. Don't know who Lizzo even is but sounds like she sucks btw.

But seriously, I guess we have to accept that every human being has secrets, some less pleasant than others.

I don’t like her music and I’m just not a fan at all of hers but this thread is immensely disappointing.

At the club, Lizzo allegedly “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,”So it wasn't all bad this just showed up on my local news... and I learned who Lizzo is... not a great first impression

Yeah, there's no reason to ever look up to celebrities, no matter how "nice" they seem. the only good heroes to have are fictional heroes. Well yeah, no wonder the only humans I stan after have been fictional ghosts and their living "parents", and a wacky gang of vampires. (Though a lot of CBS Ghosts' cast seem pretty cool...)

The thing about this is that it's just not one accusation, it's multiple. If one person accuses someone of something I personally keep that in mind as it can go either way some time. The more people that comment on it well, if there's smoke there's fire most cases. Just wild that it was her doing it especially after what you're supposed to represent.
Celebrities are wild yall.

The hypocrisy of being body positive and really overweight while also fat-shaming your backup dancers is wild.

I don't know much about her but if even half of these accusations are true, that's very disappointing. For someone who was apparently very outspoken about body positivity to have done some of this stuff just gives critics of hers and other trolls ammunition to use. And the critics of hers, before this, are the kinds of people I don't want to have any sort of satisfaction.

Not a Lizzo fan at all and always thought her entire presentation was kind of disingenuous but things like this are why I always separate the art from the artist as best as I can. For every Keanu Reeves there’s like 1000 scumf***s. 🤷🏻♂️

A person who's as big and wide as they are has no room to be criticizing and shaming others.

Or Marianne Faithful and Mick Jagger? or Mötley Crüe and two women and a phone call home? Maybe because of how many rock biographies I've read, this doesn't even rank in the top 100.
