The suit goes on to accuse Quigley of "constantly" telling the dance cast "luridly detailed stories about her masturbatory habits and sexual fantasies, occasionally taking breaks to publicly practice her oral sex skills on bananas."

At one point in the night, Lizzo started a group chant calling out Davis and "pressuring" her to touch the breasts of one of the performers, even after Davis declined multiple times, the suit alleges.

Davis' lawyers say she was "mortified" and finally agreed to touch the performer to stop the chanting.

"Plaintiffs were aghast with how little regard Lizzo showed for the bodily autonomy of her employees and those around her, especially in the presence of many people whom she employed," the complaint states.

After Davis had gained some weight, Lizzo and her choreographer questioned Davis' commitment to the job, the complaint says. Davis' lawyers allege that their questions were "thinly veiled concerns about [Davis's] weight gain, which Lizzo had previously called attention to."

The lawsuit also says that after firing Davis in May, Lizzo screamed at Davis and Rodriguez, cracking her knuckles and balling up her fists, making Rodriguez think that Lizzo was about to hit her.

Lizzo came under fire last year for including an ableist slur in her sing "Grrls." As Insider's Callie Ahlgrim reported at the time, Lizzo used a derogatory term derived from "spastic," which is used to describe someone born with a disability that makes it difficult for them to control their muscles, according to Collins Dictionary.
