Now, many are curious to know what did she say? Read on to know.
Lizzo bashes Kai Cenat’s fans for shaming her
Lizzo recently responded to online trolls who mocked her on a livestream with Kai Cenat, where some viewers accused her of breathing heavily during the broadcast. In an Instagram Live video shared after the stream, Lizzo addressed the claims head-on. She stated, “I know that if the internet’s good for one thing, it’s for talking cash money sh*t about fat girls.” Lizzo is no stranger to body-shaming comments and didn’t hold back in calling out the fatphobia that often targets her online.
The accusations about Lizzo’s breathing were sparked during a segment where she appeared on Cenat’s “Mafiathon 2” livestream, which featured discussions with SZA and the debut of Kendrick Lamar’s new music. While Lizzo and Cenat were enjoying the stream, some fans took to social media to mock Lizzo for “breathing loudly,” a claim Lizzo firmly denied. She said, “What I will not allow is for y’all to lie on me. I have seen too many posts about me breathing loud during Mafia. And b*tch, y’all know Kai Cenat is a loud as breather. That’s the n**ga that was breathing loud.”
Lizzo went on to explain that the proximity of Cenat’s microphone to his nose made him the most likely source of the noise. She stated, “How am I the one that’s breathing loud when the volume of the breathing didn’t change? My shoulders not even moving with the sound of the breathing.”
Despite facing such scrutiny, Lizzo remains strong. She recently posted a picture of herself on Instagram showing off her weight loss, which was met with admiration. The singer has long been an advocate for body positivity and self-love.
