Citibank -- Intimidated by her hotness?

Heard this on the radio this morning.

Debralee Lorenzana, a 33 year old Queens woman, is suing banking giant Citibank because, she claims, she was fired for being too sexy and distracting her male co-workers.

Really.

Lorenzana worked as a business banking officer for Citibank from September 2008 to August 2009, when she was fired. Lorenza's lawsuit says that she was fired basically for two reasons. One was that she was not opening enough new accounts. The other was that despite dressing appropriately by any reasonable business standard, she was told by at least two managers that she needed to stop wearing heels and tailored clothing that accentuated her curves and other bodily assets.

Lorenzana's lawsuit even goes so far as to say that other women in the office were allowed to dress the way she was not allowed to dress because the other women were not blessed (cursed?) with height, curves, and general womanliness.

LOL right. I didn't think she was that hot, when i read this in the NYPost.

Here's one:


Others here. Some are way extra, but others, really? That's par for the course when youre ballin in NYC. Theyre totally intimidated by her hotness. Her body is pretty awesome though, i won't hate.

She should go on over to Morgan Stanley or Goldman. They'll appreciate her assets there.

I only saw the one picture in the original article, but from what I heard on the radio, the complaints were more about her body (wearing form fitting clothing, TOO high heels, etc).

Of course, I see no problem with this. The more Bensons, the better...

Read: she's taller than the shorties at Citibank, but won't let them get close enough to rub their heads against her Bensons.

LOLZ at Citibank being a "white shoe corporation."

The outfit she's wearing IS inappropriate - the top looks practically see through and it's on the verge of being too low cut. Sorry to say, if you're built like a brick house, there are things you can't get away with that skinny flat-chested girls can. At 34, she should have gotten that memo.

^^@PJeni -Sometimes you have to upsize on a shoe because the stiletto-ness. I can't even get into pumps that tall without going up a full size to accommodate.

Anyways, she stays steady fierce. I thought she was going to turn around and have a case of pancake a** like Ke$ha, but she's got that covered too.

It is possible that her co-workers did not appreciate her wardrobe, but most of it seems appropriate, although I certainly would go up a size for work appropriateness. If she was wearing the dress she claims she was wearing to her interview, they knew what was up from day one. It's all about whether she can prove what she claims though.

She can send me some of those shoes. Watch me walk it out! I'm throwin' on my Louboutins!

Her "real" business outfits aren't really that offensive. I've seen many women, particularly at banks, with similar attire.

Her "showing off my Bensons so I can get some secks!!!11" outfits are doing the most.
