“Lizzo intends to file a malicious prosecution complaint when she wins her case and these specious complaints are dismissed,” the lawyer told the outlet, revealing photos of the dancers “having happily fun backstage. after a cabaret show.
Dancers Arianna Davis, Crystal Williams and Noelle Rodriguez previously filed a complaint against the singer – whose real name is Melissa Viviane Jefferson – claiming they were pressured into touching naked performers at a strip club in Amsterdam while on tour. Lizzo’s attorney used images of happy Arianna Davis, Crystal Williams and Noelle Rodriguez as a defense.
“These images showing the three delighted complainants backstage at the topless show were taken after their February 2023 visit to the Bananenbar in Amsterdam, which they complain about in their accusations. A few weeks after the visit to the Crazy Horse that we see in the images, the three plaintiffs took a break and chose to return for the third leg of the Lizzo tour,” said Marty Singer. “These compelling photos and videos and other substantial evidence demonstrate the glaring contradictions between what the plaintiffs claim in their bogus lawsuit and what is actually proven by the facts. This trial is a sham.”
He also noted that one of the dancers praised Lizzo during her audition for Watch Out for the Big Grrrlsstating, “I admire him immensely and just want to follow in his footsteps.”
