Lizzo has a message to those putting her down.
The 34-year-old “About Damn Time” singer sent out a message to her haters as she accepted an awards at the 2022 MTV VMAs.
Over the weekend, she was the recipient of very shocking and distasteful comments from comedian Aries Spears on the podcast The Art Of Dialogue.
Aries said about Lizzo:
“I can’t get over the fact she looks like the sh-t emoji. She’s a very beautiful girl. She’s got a very pretty face, but she keeps showing her body off. C’mon man. I ain’t the most in shape n—a in the world, but when you funny and you got swagger and confidence and you decent looking. I think I’m at least handsome… you get p—y. But a woman that’s built like a plate of mashed potatoes is in trouble. She’s dope. Her music’s hard… her body ain’t.”
But wait – he wasn’t done. Aries went on:
“You know what kills me about women? The hypocrisy and contradiction. ‘Yaas, Queen.’ ‘Slay, Queen.’ F–k diabetes. F–k heart problems. F–k heart disease, cholesterol.
Y’all claim womanhood and are about sisterhood, but if you really loved your sister you’d go ‘Black girl, we love you and your confidence, but this ain’t it.’”
Lizzo received so much love and support on social media after Aries’ comments were made. And on Sunday (August 28) at the VMAs, she seemingly referenced what happened during her acceptance speech. Though she did not mention Aries by name, it seemed clear that she was referring to him.
Lizzo said:
“And now, to the b**ches that got something to say about me in the press… You know what, I’m not gonna say nothing.
They’re like, ‘Lizzo, why don’t you clap back?’ Because b**ch, I’m winning, ho. Big b**ches winning, ho!”
