‘We ate bananas!’: Lizzo’s old post goes viral amid harassment allegations

An Instagram post from Lizzo, dated February 24th, has recently resurfaced, triggering a wave of discussions amid allegations of sexual harassment surrounding the singer.

The viral post, which originally seemed innocuous, now takes on a different context as Lizzo faces accusations of harassment, discrimination, and fostering a hostile work environment by three of her former backing dancers.

The Good As Hell hitmaker vehemently denies the allegations made against her by the trio. The lawsuit claims that during their time in the Netherlands, Lizzo invited them for a night out that culminated in Amsterdam's Red Light District.

Allegedly, the situation escalated when the 35-year-old encouraged the dancers to participate in activities involving nude performers and eating bananas that protruded inappropriately.

Ironically, the now-infamous Instagram post reads, "AmsterDAM u were incredible - we laughed we danced we sang we cried! We ate bananas! Miss you already."

One fan noted, "Well this sure aged like fine milk," while another commented, "'This aged horribly'."

Some fans directly addressed Lizzo, questioning whether the post was made before or after the alleged incidents occurred.

Lizzo, however, has not remained silent. In a statement addressing the allegations, she wrote: "These last few days have been gut wrenchingly difficult and overwhelmingly disappointing."

"My work ethic, morals and respectfulness have been questioned. My character has been criticized. Usually I choose not to respond to false allegations but these are as unbelievable as they sound and too outrageous to not be addressed."

"These sensationalized stories are coming from former employees who have already publicly admitted that they were told their behavior on tour was inappropriate and unprofessional."
