Lizzo continues to take the high road despite recent hateful remarks made about her body. “Truth Hurts” was recently the target of scathing comments from rapper Kanye West during his interview with Tucker Carlson.
In a controversial sit-down with the conservative television host, the rapper lunged at Lizzo for no apparent reason. Now, Lizzo is clapping her own way!

“Lizzo works with my coach, my friend,” Ye said during the interview. “When Lizzo lost ten pounds and announced it, the bots – that’s the term for telemarketers on the internet – they attacked her because the media wanted to create the perception that being overweight is the new goal when it’s actually unhealthy.”
The Yeezy founder seemed to attack the body positivity movement, saying, “Let’s put aside that it’s fashion and Vogue, which it’s not, or if someone thinks it’s attractive, for everyone, it’s actually clinically unhealthy. And for people to promote it, it’s the devil.”
Not sure where Ye got the fact about Lizzo being bashed for losing ten pounds but the internet has not been kind to her about her statement. Many criticized him for his “disgusting” comments.
One fan wrote on Twitter, “Kanye talking about Lizzo’s weight when she had weight loss surgery is crazy. Lizzo is here just minding her own business and making people happy. I hope he has a great night.”
Another user lamented, “Kanye West takes a breath in this interview like he’s out of breath just talking. yet lizzo plays the flute, sings, raps and dances on stage for an hour at her show. Fatphobia turns ordinary idiots into dietitians.”

Lizzo, who doesn’t like to attack or bash people on social media, decided to tell the truth in her own way! Over the weekend, he held a sold-out concert in Canada as part of his “It’s About Damn Time” tour.
In a snippet of the show, the “Cuz I Lov You” singer touched on the topic while talking to her fans. In her words, “I think everyone in America got my mother’s name in their mother’s mouth for no mother’s reason.” The crowd cheered loudly as he gave his statement.
He continued, “I’m thinking about my beautiful fat black business! Can I stay here? [in Toronto] Who can I marry for the dual citizenship?” Lizzo’s jokes were well received by her audience, who cheered louder as she spoke. In a separate Instagram post, the “Lizzo’s Watch Out for the Big Grrrls” host shared a clip from her show where the words “My Body My Choice” were projected onto the screen.
Fans sing the comments section with praise for the Grammy Award winner. One fan wrote, “PERIOD!!! Don’t let anyone with baby mama issues and too much talk about your body!!
Another user added, “This made me cry… thank you,” while this fan said, “Make no mistake. You are a role model to women and little girls everywhere – I mean EVERYWHERE. Don’t EVER change and don’t ever let anyone tell you otherwise, by the permission of Almighty God.”
Lizzo Gets an Honorable Chance From James Madison’s Estate
The disaster with Kanye came days after Lizzo made history when she played the late President James Madison’s antique flute from the Library of Congress. The historic musical instrument was rescued by the late First Lady Dolly Madison after “the White House was burned by the British army in 1814.”
Lizzo played the instrument in Washington DC, and a few days after that legendary moment, she received another honor when she was given an “open invitation” from President Madison’s Montpelier Estate to “take a personal tour of Madison’s estate and also perform while she was visiting.”
According to reports, the late president’s estate is eager to have the Michigan native play the iconic crystal flute once more.
