Lizzo Lashes out at Author
Who Says She's Popular
Due to 'Obesity Epidemic'.
Lizzo clapped back after
Dr. Boyce Watkins made the
statement on Twitter last week.
#Lizzo popular is because there is an obesity epidemic in America. Rather than encouraging people to do better, we are simply
lying to them, Dr. Boyce Watkins, via Twitter.
Telling them that they are just fine the way they are. Unfortunately, Many of these people are dying from diabetes and heart disease, Dr. Boyce Watkins, via Twitter.
Lizzo responded to
Watkins via Twitter.
I’m popular because I write good songs and I’m talented and perform high energy hour and a half shows filled with love. The only person who needs to do better is you, Lizzo, via Twitter.
Keep my name out ya mouth & look in the mirror before you come for me. Here’s the attention you ordered, Lizzo, via Twitter.
Lizzo performed "Truth Hurts" and "Good as Hell"
on her 'Saturday Night Live' debut last week.
She is also nominated for record of the year,
song of the year, album of the year and
best new artist for the 62nd annual Grammys.
