00:14She went on Kiki Palmer's podcast and was asked about these allegations against her.
00:19These were people that I, I liked them and appreciated them as dancers.
00:24So I was like, what?
00:26But then I heard all the other things like sexual harassment and I was like, they're trying.
00:33Well, I don't know what they're trying to do, but these are the types of things that the media can turn into something that is not.
00:39Lizzo has come out and denied the sexual harassment allegations, but she doesn't really deny that they were worked like to the bone.
00:47We've seen this recently, right?
00:48This is the same sort of thing. Like Jimmy Fallon came out and said this when his employees came out and said we're being worked to the bone.
