Lizzo responds to Kanye West’s weighty comments with a joke about moving to Canada

sÃOO PAULO, SP (FOLHAPRESS) – American singer Lizzo took advantage of a concert in Toronto, Canada, to counter the criticisms of her body made by Kanye West this week, according to the American site TMZ. Without mentioning the rapper, she joked with the audience that she would like to get married in an attempt to get dual Canadian citizenship and said that in the United States everyone has something to say about her.

“I feel like everyone’s got my fucking name in their mouths for no reason,” he said during the show. ” May I stay here ? Who can I marry to obtain dual nationality? »
Lizzo is known for her approach to body positivity and self-acceptance. Attitude has even morphed into an underwear brand for various bodies.

The acceptance of the singer’s body, however, was criticized by American rapper Kanye West. In an interview with Tucker Carlson, a conservative TV presenter who rode the Trump wave on Fox News, the rapper said the media is trying to sell that being overweight is a good idea.

West called the promotion of self-acceptance of overweight people “demonic” and said that behind this media gamble lies an attempt at “genocide of the black population”.

“When Lizzo loses 10 pounds and the announcement, Instagram bots attack her for losing weight,” West said, without providing evidence.
During the interview, the rapper wore an accessory with the image of a fetus which, according to him, should send the message that he is against the right to abortion.

Again without presenting any data, he claimed that “50% of black deaths in the United States are due to abortions. I don’t care how people react, I play in front of an audience of one, and that’s is God.”

This week he launched a parade with coats with the words “white lives matter”, an affront to the “black lives matter” of the Black Lives Matter movement, which protests against police brutality and black genocide in the United States. West, who has backed Donald Trump’s campaigns, called the move a farce.
