Ashra Daniels joins three former dancers in filing lawsuit over experience with rapper and her team
The majority of the allegations in Daniels’ lawsuit focus on the treatment she received from Nomura, including “racist and fatphobic comments” that the wardrobe manager allegedly said about the dancers; “Nomura would also refer to Black women on the tour as ‘dumb,’ ‘useless,’ and ‘fat,’” the lawsuit states.
“Nomura expressed that she would ‘kill a bitch if it came down to it’ if anyone threatened her job,” the lawsuit continued. “Lizzo’s management was well aware of this pattern of behavior. Carlina Gugliotta, Lizzo’s Tour Manager even requested Plaintiff to record Nomura without her knowledge, which Plaintiff did not do as it was both unethical and possibly unlawful.”
Daniels added that she was “forced to endure sexual harassment by Lizzo’s management” in the form of a 30-person group text that “included graphic and disturbing images of male genitalia.” As for the assault claim, Daniels cited an incident where Nomura allegedly “rolled a heavy clothing rack over Daniels’ foot, causing serious pain, but Nomura merely ignored it and pushed Daniels into the rack, causing a more severe injury.
Daniels said that she was ultimately “abruptly fired” from the tour. “Due to the racist and sexualized work environment, and also the unreasonable physical requirements of the Plaintiff, she suffered constant anxiety and panic attacks,” the lawsuit said. “She continues to suffer ongoing anxiety and PTSD after the tour; she suffers from migraines and migraine-induced eye twitch and ocular distortions, brain fog, and fatigue.
