In addition to celebrities, the singer’s fans were also unhappy with his announcement, with many stating that they have been waiting for his next album.
One said, “You are very needed and important. Please don’t let them win.”
Another commented, “I don’t know if it helps, but you’ve definitely helped me feel more confident and brave enough to post. I think you’re awesome, and it’s unfair how people treat bigger black women on the internet. You don’t deserve all of this, I hope it stops soon.”
A third fan wrote, “Never stop. You have inspired and changed the world and are dearly loved by myself and millions! Take a break. But please don’t stop. The world needs you.”
Lizzo Charged With Sexual Harassment And Creating A Hostile Environment

A day earlier, the singer was criticized by the lawyers of former backup dancers Lizzo, Arianna Davis, Crystal Williams, and Noelle Rodriguez, who sued the pop star, allegedly sexually harassing them and creating a hostile work environment.
The lawyer, Ron Zambrano, claimed it was “disgraceful” that Lizzo had been booked to perform at a fundraiser for President Joe Biden in New York City.
“It’s a shame that Lizzo would be chosen to preside over an event like this in the midst of such horrific allegations,” Zambrano said in an interview with NewsNation, follow Daily Mail. “Without getting involved in politics, I can’t imagine why anyone would want Lizzo to represent them in any way, given his reprehensible behavior. It’s just a horrible sight.”
The attorney also mentioned that “Lizzo’s count is forthcoming,” referring to the ongoing lawsuit that a judge ruled last month could proceed.
He Denies the Allegation

Part of the accusation leveled against Lizzo is that he forced dancers to perform sexually offensive acts with nude performers during a strip club tour in Amsterdam in late February 2023 while the pop star was on tour.
Two of the dancers, Davis and Williams, were fired from their jobs before they filed the suit. Meanwhile, Rodriguez voluntarily quit.
Lizzo has maintained her innocence amid the accusations, despite more claims from online users that her attitude towards her crew was poor.
In one instance, he described the claim as “false,” “unbelievable,” and that “it sounds too far-fetched.”
He also claimed that the former employee “has publicly acknowledged that they were told their behavior during the visit was inappropriate and unprofessional.”
