Damn! Azelia Banks took to his Instagram account on Thursday (10) to talk about the singer lizzoaccused of sexual harassment, body shaming and creating a hostile work environment by three former dancers.

In Stories, Banks shared the print of a Billboard article about Lizzo’s new allegations, and claimed she was talking about these attitudes when she said the singer was “hypocritical.”

When I told you there was something very sanctimonious and jealous and desperate about this woman, I meant it.”

“No self-respecting Black woman would do all that stereotypical ‘mom’ bullshit unless she was financially desperate beyond belief”he wrote.

And that’s how these racist industry executives keep the narrative alive. Your diversity initiatives will always include only the most desperate, docile and easily controlled people.”

“They will always try to present these images of us to the world instead of getting out of the way, because they have to keep lying that slavery and oppression was an act of charity in their name and promote the idea that somehow we are ways intellectually inferior and we need to be ‘civilised'”, she said.

UNDERSTAND THE CONTROVERSY

Lizzo was sued by Ariadne Davis, Crystal Williams AND Noelle Rodriguez, his former dancers. According to NBC News, the lawsuit was filed in Los Angeles Superior Court and Lizzo, whose real name is Melissa Viviane Jefferson, is not the only one named in the case. The leader of your dance team, Shirlene Quigleyhe is also accused of crimes by women.

Claims for all damages include: hostile work environment, sexual harassment, religious harassment, racial harassment, disability discrimination, and failure to prevent or remedy the harassment. Lizzo is specifically accused of disability discrimination, hostile work environment, sexual harassment and failure to stop these issues. His company Big Grrrl Big Touring Inc was also named as a defendant.

The singer denies all allegations, however, the attorney representing the former dancers recently revealed that he’s looking into new allegations by at least six people against Lizzo. Including employees who participated in the artist’s tour and reality show “Lizzo’s Focus on the Great Grrrls”, from Amazon Studios.
