Beyoncé. Did we not learn anything from Lizzo? Beyoncé is being called out for using an offensive
00:06
term on her new album, but we need to talk about the fact that a situation like this
00:10
literally just happened. The derogatory term, which is often used to demean people with spastic
00:15
cerebral palsy, is used twice in her new song Heated. This was met with heavy criticism by
00:20
disability activists, who said it quote, feels like a slap in the face and quote,
00:23
reinforces the negative attitudes disabled people face every day. A representative from Beyoncé's
00:28
team has since responded, saying that the word was not intentionally used in a harmful way
00:33
and will be replaced. But perhaps the most perplexing thing is that Lizzo was widely
00:38
criticized for using the same word on her new album just last month. Lizzo quickly responded
00:44
to the backlash, saying that she never intended to promote derogatory language and was proud to
00:48
quote, listen and take action. She recorded and released a new version of the song without the
00:53
offensive lyric. People are calling for the same from Beyoncé, who has yet to personally address
00:57
the controversy.
