PUT THE PHONE DOWN! Lizzo Sparks Online Panic After Engaging In A Wild, Non-Stop Twitter War With Internet Trolls!
A chaotic social media showdown has been officially uncovered by Media Take Out, as pop superstar Lizzoappears to be spiraling into an intense, late-night Twitter meltdown. Rather than ignoring the digital noise as she prepares for her highly anticipated upcoming album rollout, the “About Damn Time” singer has been actively clocking into the trenches of X (formerly Twitter), firing back at almost every single negative comment thrown her way.
Oh wait… this is outta hand. Nobody’s shading this young artist I’m responding jokingly to tweets, I’m not talking to her. Please relax yall— it’s gonna be ok 🫶🏾 it’s just twitter… https://t.co/kxMtbWf4XB
The online tension reached a boiling point after Lizzo teased a brand new snippet of her upcoming track, which samples the classic Washington Go-Go anthem “Sexy Lady” by the band UCB. The teaser immediately polarized the internet, drawing heavy, territorial criticism from DMV (D.C., Maryland, Virginia) natives who claimed she was “ruining a regional masterpiece.” Instead of letting her PR team handle the backlash, Lizzo took the bait, engaging in a relentless, exhausting back-and-forth with the comment section that has her inner circle practically begging her to hand over her password.
Are you well? First of all I have never talked shit about Taylor Swift— also while we on the subject I’ve never talked shit about any artist. Just because I mention an artist by name does not mean I’m talking shit— grow tf up pls https://t.co/HjgjutzcDw
The non-stop replies have fans deeply concerned, especially since Lizzo explicitly stated during a high-profile interview with Gayle King on CBS Mornings earlier this month that she was actively stepping back from trying to defend herself to the public. During that sit-down, she admitted there was a “long list” of misunderstandings about her character, stating she was tired of being tone-policed and had resolved to just “put it in the music.”
WOAH! would never shade Olivia Rodrigo I think she’s amazing. Maybe I’ll stop interacting w Stan accounts so there’s no confusion— I need Twitter to give yall a orange check or something https://t.co/ROXC5Bq5jI
Unfortunately, that resolution completely went out the window once the “Sexy Lady” snippets dropped. Critics are weaponizing the defensive tweets to argue that her career is in the midst of a very obvious downturn, claiming her willingness to argue with random, anonymous accounts is proof of low industry morale.
“Someone in her camp desperately needs to take her phone away and change the Wi-Fi password,” one viral tweet read. “Arguing with egg accounts when you have Grammys on your shelf is a terrible look.”
Compounding the social media stress, rumors are swirling through the industry regarding behind-the-scenes frustration over her upcoming project. Reports surfaced last week alleging that Lizzo has been forced to take the “boots-on-the-ground” initiative to promote her music independently, amid claims that her label has been hesitant to fully back the marketing budget following her previous legal and PR controversies.
Despite the chaotic online behavior, Lizzo recently put on a brave public face at the star-studded amfAR Gala outside the Cannes Film Festival, confidently promising reporters on the carpet that her new record is strictly “good, clean fun.” But if she keeps letting the Twitter trolls disrupt her peace and dictate her mood, the rollout for this new era might turn into a full-blown PR disaster before the music even hits the streaming platforms.
Do you think Lizzo is completely out of pocket for fighting the internet trolls, or does she have every right to defend her musical choices? Let us know in the comments!
