(NewsNation) — An attorney for Lizzo’s former backup dancers, Arianna Davis, Crystal Williams and Noelle Rodriguez, is fuming that the Democratic National Committee hired the “Good As Hell” singer to headline the Dem’s big fundraiser Thursday night at Radio City Music Hall.

“It’s shameful that Lizzo would be chosen to headline an event like this amid such egregious allegations,” Ron Zambrano told me. “Without getting into the politics, I can’t imagine why anyone would want Lizzo representing them in any way given her reprehensible behavior. It’s just a terrible look.”

Lizzo is facing accusations of sexual harassment and discrimination by Davis, Williams and Rodriguez who sued Lizzo last August, accusing her of “creating a hostile work environment through a wide range of legal wrongdoing, including not just sexual harassment but also religious and racial discrimination,” according to Billboard. The women allege Lizzo forced them to attend sex shows and eat a banana protruding from a woman’s vagina, among other allegations. Last month, a judge denied Lizzo’s request to toss the lawsuit, allowing the majority of the case to proceed to trial later this year.

Lizzo is headlining the “Three Presidents” event at Radio City Music Hall which will see Stephen Colbert moderate a discussion between Bill Clinton, Barack Obama and current President Joe Biden. Also set to perform are a host of other B listers including Queen Latifah, Lea Michele, Ben Platt and Cynthia Erivo.

“Lizzo continues to shame the victims with Diddy using the same playbook, and it’s disgusting,” Zambrano fumed. “History is keeping receipts and years from now, people will be ashamed that they worked with her. Lizzo’s reckoning is coming. This is just the beginning of the music industry’s #MeToo moment with allegations against Lizzo, Diddy and others. We aim to end this misogynistic behavior across the industry and look forward to hearing from not only additional potential Lizzo plaintiffs but anyone who feels they have been wronged by other artists.”
