Offset Defends Lizzo Against Online Hate

by Daryl Nelson

Lizzo may have gotten a lot of hateful comments after dropping her Cardi B-assisted song "Rumors" last week, but she also has a lot of supporters.

After the song was released, Lizzo was fat-shamed, racist comments were left, and some accused her of catering to a white audience. The comments left the singer in tears, so people like Cardi B stuck up for her. Plus, Facebook intervened and removed some of those messages.

Now Cardi's husband Offset has defended Lizzo, which he did while talking to TMZ.

“Let these beautiful Black women … Let these women be great,” said Offset. “Stop judging, giving off negative energy. We work hard to be entertainers for the world, let us be."

What's your theory as to why Lizzo seems to be having such a hard time dealing with hateful comments when other celebs seem to brush them off a lot better?
