Lizzo addressed lawsuits brought by former employees and dancers during an interview with Willie Geist on Sunday TODAY on 4 October, saying, 'I'm not a fighter, I'm a lover.'

The 38-year-old singer, whose real name is Melissa Jefferson, discussed the legal claims after a federal judge granted summary judgment to her touring company in one case. A separate lawsuit filed by three former backup dancers remains active, although some claims have been dismissed during the litigation.
