Three former dancers for Lizzo are suing the music icon, her dance captain Shirlene Quigley and her production company, Big Grrrl Big Touring, Inc., claiming they endured sexual and religious harassment and a hostile work environment.
Three dancers who filed a lawsuit against Lizzo committed to additional tour dates after the alleged harassment occurred, according to documents obtained by NBC News on Tuesday.
Arianna Davis, Noelle Rodriguez and Crystal Williams each re-signed for a third leg of Lizzo's tour in early April, according to a signed agreement and an email.
A contract signed April 11 showed David and Williams agreed to remain on retainer for the singer's international shows through July 31. An email dated April 4 states that a representative for Rodriguez accepted an agreement for the same dates.
