Lizzo’s Legal Battle Takes a Major Turn With Judge’s New Ruling
Judge Fernando Aenlle-Rocha said Asha Daniels failed to show Big Grrrl Touring violated the law after years of litigation.
- On Tuesday, Judge Fernando Aenlle-Rocha dismissed the harassment and discrimination lawsuit filed by former wardrobe designer Asha Daniels against Lizzo's touring company, Big Grrrl Touring.
- Daniels sued in 2023, shortly after three backup dancers filed a similar case, alleging she faced "racist and fat phobic comments" and workplace harassment during Lizzo's 2023 The Special Tour.
- Rejecting claims regarding boss Amanda Nomura, the judge found "there is no evidence" to suggest racial slurs were used, while dismissing complaints about "lewd gestures" and "penis-shaped candies" as isolated incidents.
- Lizzo's attorney Melissa Glass called the decision a "total victory for Lizzo," while Daniels' counsel Ron Zambrano said his client was "disappointed" by a ruling that "improperly weighed evidence."
- The separate lawsuit filed by three former backup dancers remains pending, continuing legal challenges that emerged in 2023 regarding the Grammy-winning singer's workplace environment.
