The trigger for Harassment in Amsterdam, Netherlands
An incident in Amsterdam, Netherlands, became the trigger. According to the plaintiffs, Lizzo molested her while throwing a party in the Red District, the city's notorious legal prostitution district, after a concert.
"Lizzo asked her team to take turns holding strippers," the document claims.

The singer, who is known for advocating body positivity, has also been accused of insults, especially to Arianna Davis.
The defendant allegedly insulted Davis after accusing her of gaining weight and not living up to her commitments as a dancer.
Last May, Davis was fired for filming Lizzo while evaluating dancers over her performance.
"The way Lizzo and her management team treat the dancers seems to contradict all the principles Lizzo portrays in public," Zambrano said.
Shirlene Quigley was accused of demeaning dancers by wearing her faith. But simultaneously, she talks about a dancer's sexy fantasies and virginity.
