Lizzo's request to have the sexual harassment case against her dismissed gets DENIED by judge

Lizzo had tried to get the lawsuit thrown out but on Friday, but a Los Angeles County Superior Court judge ruled that the case will go forward.

'We're very pleased with the judge's ruling, and we absolutely consider it a victory on balance,' Davis, Williams and Rodriguez's attorney Ron Zambrano told People in a statement. He continued: 'Instead of taking any accountability for their own actions, plaintiffs filed this lawsuit against defendants out of spite and in pursuit of media attention, public sympathy and a quick payday with minimal effort.' Neama Rahmani of West Coast Employment Lawyers told Billboard in a statement: 'Even a first-year law student can see that 'free speech' does not cover Lizzo and her team's illegal sexual harassment and racial, religious, and disability discrimination.'
