Lizzo tearfully calls out 'fatphobic' and 'racist' hate following 'Rumors' release

Lizzo cried over a wave of hateful comments following the release of her latest single, admitting to fans on Instagram Live "it's hurtful."

Lizzo broke down in tears over racist and fat-phobic comments she received after dropping her new song “Rumors,” featuring Cardi B. “Sometimes I feel like the world just don’t love me back. It’s like, it doesn’t matter how much positive energy you put into the world. You’re still going to have people who have something mean to say about you,” Lizzo, 33, sobbed during an Instagram Live on Sunday. She continued, “I just feel like I’m seeing negativity directed towards me in the most weirdest way, like, people saying s–t about me that just doesn’t even make sense. It’s fat-phobic and it’s racist and it’s hurtful.”
