Lizzo Learn more about our social media, and in one of her latest tweets, she went off about her concerns regarding cancel culture.
“This may be a random time to say this but it’s on my heart … cancel culture is appropriation,” she wrote. “There was real outrage from truly marginalized people and now it’s become trendy, misused and misdirected. I hope we can phase out of this and focus our outrage on the real problems.”
The lips are in full abundance.
“I’ve seen comments go from, ‘Oh my gosh, I liked you when you were thick. Why did you lose weight?’ ‘Oh my gosh, why did you get a BBL? I liked your body before.’ ‘Oh my gosh, you’re so big. You need to lose weight but for your health’ to ‘Oh my gosh, you’re so little. You need to get ass or titties or something.’ ‘Oh my gosh, why did she get all that work done? It’s too much work,’” she said in a TikTok video.
The “After two strong years in the making” singer continued, “Are we OK? Do you see the delusion? Do you realize that artists are not here to fit into your beauty standards? Artists are here to make art. And this body is art. I’mma do whatever I want with this body. I wish that comments costed y’all money so we could see how much time we are f-cking wasting on the wrong thing. Can we leave that sh-t back there please?”
