Lizzo Breaks Her Silence
Lizzo is speaking out days after a lawsuit accused her and her team of weight-shaming, sexual harassment, and creating a hostile work environment. She released a statement via her Instagram account where she said the days following the announcement of the lawsuit have been “gut-wrenchingly difficult and overwhelmingly disappointing.” She wrote in part, I know what it feels like to be body shamed on a daily basis and would absolutely never criticize or terminate an employee because of their weight. Lizzo says the accusations are coming from former employees who were terminated for their behavior while on tour with her

Beyonce Removes Lizzo and Adds Erykah Badu
On Tuesday night, while performing “Break My Soul on her “Renaissance World Tour,” Beyoncé opted not to sing Lizzo’s name despite having done so previously. In the third verse of the song, Queen Bey lists names of influential Black women in music and sings: “Betty Davis, Solange Knowles; Badu, Lizzo, Kelly Rowl.” However, at her recent concert, the entertainer instead sang, “Betty Davis, Solange Knowles; Badu, Badu, Badu, Badu.” The reason many think she repeated Erykah Badu’s name is because earlier in the week Badu pointed out that Beyonce was influenced by her as the singer wore a silver hat on stage similar to one Badu has worn. I don’t know how Beyonce has time for her 50/11 wardrobe changes and keep her ear to the streets but she does!
