Lizzo responds to Kanye West’s fat-phobic comment during the concert in Canada


The rapper associated fat bodies with health problems and condemned the acceptance of the body promoted by the activist singer

Lizzo did not give up and took revenge against a series of fatphobic comments made by Kanye West on his body. The rapper stated, during the talk show Tucker Carlson: Tonight, from Fox News, that the media would promote an unhealthy lifestyle by encouraging fat people. Faced with the artist’s speech, the singer decided to give an answer while she was performing in Toronto, Canada, last weekend. Her attitude went viral on social media.

Without mentioning Kanye’s name, Lizzo he talked about it directly from the stage. “I feel like everyone in America can’t get away with my name for no reason. I’m minding my own business being fat, black and beautiful. Can I stay here (in Toronto)? Who can marry me so I can get dual citizenship?”, he said, receiving a lot of applause from the audience.

During the talk show, the rapper claimed that the media and the Internet would encourage obesity, justifying that fat people are attacked when they announce that they have lost weight. The musician took as an example the comments of netizens about the singer, who is an activist for the diversity of bodies and for the rights of fat people.

“When Lizzo loses ten pounds and advertises it, robots attack her for losing weight. Because the media want to make the perception that being overweight is the new target. In fact, this is not healthy from a medical point of view and the people who they promote it are demonic, “Kanye said.

After hearing the rapper’s statement, Carlson asked him why the media would be interested in “promoting an unhealthy lifestyle” and stressed that it was an alleged coordinated action promoting the “genocide of blacks”.
