The lawyer of Asha Daniels, former stylist and clothing designer of American singer Lizzo has responded after the musician’s lawyer told court to dismiss a lawsuit filed against her.
Lizzo’s lawyers have officially filed a motion to dismiss a harassment and discrimination lawsuit made by Asha calling her a ‘disgruntled’ employee.
In a request filed last Friday, Lizzo’s lawyer alleged that Daniels ‘failed to perform the work that she was assigned and, eventually, just played hooky and refused to show up for work.’

Per court documents obtained by People, the lawsuit filed by Asha which came after the singer was also sued by several former dancers is ‘meritless and salacious’.
While reacting to the lawsuit filed by Asha, her counsel Rom Zambrano in a statement, said the motion is ‘another Hail Mary by Lizzo’s team to try to shift blame to the victims, as she has done to the three other plaintiffs who have sued her for similar allegations of harassment, disability discrimination and retaliatory termination.’
He went on, ”Lizzo and her lawyers can continue trying to rationalize her illegal and wretched conduct but we remain committed to seeking justice for our clients, and look forward to our day in court where Lizzo can explain her behavior in a public forum.”
