In the lawsuit, the dancers had accussed Lizzo and her dance captain, Shirlene Quigley, of sexual harassment, body shaming, false imprisonment, a toxic work environment and more.

In her tweets, Grimes showed her support for Lizzo against the accusations.

“Not saying I don’t believe ppl when bad things happen, but I had dancers mistreated on my watch in ways I didn’t find out about until way later,” she started her tweet. “Mebe sh** is bad. But loyalty matters to me.”

She also recalled how Lizzo was one of the people who were kind to her before she “cool, and she checked in in me when no one cared. I’ve only ever seen exemplary behavior from her, especially when everyone was hating on me and she was on top of the world. There was no reason for her to check in, besides to be a good person. Just my two cents.”

However, like many Grimes is grappling with the accusations against Lizzo, too.

“I recall when she first blew up being so happy because I’d never known such an admirable person to find fame in the music industry,” Grimes added. “I struggle to believe she would have so radically changed πŸ’œ tired of a culture that seeks to destroy it’s greatest virtues. Lizzo is amazing.”
