Latto Leaves Fan’s Jaw On The Floor With Her Twerking: Watch

by

Latto is determined to present nothing but the finest onstage fashion. She certainly did not disappoint with her latest stylish ensemble. The 24-year-old songstress shared a series of captivating photos on her Instagram a few days ago. The post showed the rapper adorned in Valentino attire. Latto is currently accompanying Lizzo on the “Special 2our”, and she is seizing the opportunity to deliver remarkable performances that leave a lasting impression. She treated her followers to a glimpse of her dancing in the Valentino outfit during one of her concerts. Fully decked out in a crop top, skirt, knee-high boots, and form-fitting gloves, the rapper mesmerized the crowd.

Latto’s live performances have been on fire lately. Following her outstanding sets at Coachella earlier this year, she graced fans with her presence at Pharrell’s Something In The Water Festival in Virginia Beach. Adding to the excitement, she invited a lucky fan onstage for a lap dance, continuing the recent trend of increased audience interaction and participation during her shows.

Latto Leaves Young Fan In Shock

In a new video from one of Latto’s sets, a fan is in shock after seeing her twerking skills. In the video, she gyrates wildly as the camera focuses on her before turning to show the reaction of a fan. The boy, who looks to be quite young, has his mouth wide open in shock. It’s a hilarious reaction, and he was surely not the only one who felt that way. It is interesting that this is taking place on Lizzo’s tour as Latto and Lizzo do seem to be on two very different wavelengths. Perhaps that’s why the fan was so shocked. Either way, it’s safe to say the performance had the intended effect.

Latto’s success in the live performances and tour circuit is evident. The rapper continues to thrive, even with some controversies here and there. Recently, she achieved an extremely significant milestone in the realm of digital streaming platforms. Latto surpassed 1 billion total streams on Spotify. While her viral presence occasionally originates from sources outside of her artistic endeavors, it is her music that serves as the true testament to her fame.

Lizzo Asks Fans To Stop Bringing Chris Evans Pictures To Tour

by

Lizzo has made it clear that she is committed to her current boyfriend. The singer has issued a humorous public service announcement to her fans about how they should behave accordingly. In an Instagram post on Friday, Lizzo paused her concert to express gratitude to her fans in the audience. Mor specifically, she thanked the fans who brought posters of her boyfriend, actor Myke Wright. She shared an incident from a previous show, as well. Apparently, she had to address some fans who kept bringing posters of Captain America actor Chris Evans.

“Chris Evans is not my man. My man is Myke Wright,” Lizzo clarified. “He’s incredibly attractive, and I want to see his handsome face when I’m on stage.” However, she captioned the video with a playful plea to her fans. In it, she asked them not to bring giant pictures of her boyfriend since she doesn’t have enough storage. She did take the time to thank specific fans named Rene and Lucy, though. It is understandable why fans would be bringing pictures of Chris Evans, however.

Lizzo And Chris Evans Have A History

It is worth noting that Lizzo has had a history of mentioning Chris Evans. In 2021, she posted a TikTok video titled “Don’t Drink & DM.” In the video, she confessed that after having a few drinks, she sent a direct message to the Marvel actor. She said that she may or may not have been flirting with him. Lizzo expressed her disappointment because she knew she couldn’t marry him and praised his rare qualities. To her surprise, Chris Evans responded to her message and showed kindness. Lizzo updated her TikTok followers, revealing that he followed her back on Instagram and wrote, “No shame in a drunk DM. God knows I’ve done worse on this app.”

Lizzo has never been shy about her admiration for Chris Evans. In 2019, when Lizzo shared a video of a young girl showcasing impressive dance moves to her song “Juice,” Chris Evans retweeted the post, commenting that the kid was cooler than he could ever hope to be. Lizzo playfully responded, “Wow, marry me.” What do you think of Lizzo’s latest funny statement? Let us know in the comments and stay tuned to HNHH for all the latest Lizzo updates.

Lizzo Says To Stop Bringing Posters Of Chris Evans To Her Shows, But Her ‘Fine Ass’ Real-Life Man Is Okay

Lizzo took to social media to give fans a PSA: no more Chris Evans posters at her show. During a video she shared to Instagram that was taken at a recent concert, Lizzo stopped the show to thank fans who brought pictures of her actual boyfriend instead.

“I think it was the last show I just played, some had a big ass cutout of Chris Evans’ face,” Lizzo started.

“Chris Evans is not my man,” she added. “My man is [Myke Wright]. He fine as hell. I wanna see his fine ass face when I’m onstage.”

And, it turns out, some fans listened — with two giant cutouts of Wright’s face as they stood at barricade.

“PLEASE don’t keep bringing giant pics of my man I don’t have enough storage,” Lizzo captioned the post. “Thank you Rene & Lucy!”

As some fans might remember, or those unaware who need a refresher, Lizzo’s history with Evans started back in 2021 after she revealed that she drunkenly tried sliding into the actor’s DM’s. Lizzo detailed the encounter on TikTok, but at the time, he hadn’t returned a message until her video went viral.

“The reason I’m upset about this one is because I know I’m not going to be able to marry him,” she said in the clip. “And honestly, it hurts me to the core, because damn, papa, he a rare breed! No comparing!”

“No shame in a drunk DM. God knows I’ve done worse on this app,” Evans wrote back.

Lizzo Explained How She’s Not Trying To ‘Escape Fatness’ By Working Out: ‘I Don’t Ever Want To Be Thin’

Lizzo is one of the brightest stars in music, but that doesn’t prevent her from regularly dealing with conversations about her body, like when somebody shared a naked photo last month in an attempt to body-shame her. Now, she has taken a couple minutes to speak out about her fitness habits and goals.

In a TikTok post stitching a video from another user, Lizzo said, “Heavy on the not trying to escape fatness. Heavy… f*cking… on it. I just wanted to stitch this to show support to you because this creator, specifically, said, ‘I’m looking for people that I can resonate with.’ Very, very same.”

After explaining that he has “a very high-performance job” that requires “a lot of physical endurance,” she continued, “As I got more professional in my career, I started to take the physical part more seriously. I’ve always loved moving my body, I’ve always loved working out. […] I think a lot of people see a fat person that way and immediately just assume everything they are doing is trying to be thin. I’m not trying to be thin, I don’t ever want to be thin.”

Lizzo And Sasha Flute Jam With Lisa In ‘The Simpsons’ Season 34 Finale, ‘A Dream Come True’ For Lizzo

Lizzo first teased an upcoming cameo on The Simpsons in February, and Entertainment Weekly reported at the time that her appearance would take place during the iconic animated series’ Season 34 finale. The finale is slated for this Sunday, May 21, so Lizzo heightened the anticipated by sharing a clip.

“Every Icon has been on @thesimpsons — now I can add my name to the list,” she captioned her Instagram post. “Thank you to the whole team for making this a dream come true (yes I’m wearing @yitty and playing @sashabfluting)!!!!!”

Sasha Flute’s (Lizzo’s beloved flute, for those not in the know) official Instagram account also posted, “Ok…. How do I say this w out gettin too cocky…. IM OFFICIALLY THE MOST FAMOUS FLUTE IN D WORLD. WE ARE TRULY WINNING FLOOT GANG.”

In the clip, Lizzo explains to Homer that she is “a projection of your psyche” because he’s “in the middle of a very traumatic life event.” They’re joined in a studio by Bart and Lisa. Bart (and melodically) slaps Homer across the face. “This beat is fire!” Lizzo says. “Hey, Lisa, how about I get Sasha Flute, you get your saxomaphone, and we jam?” And that’s exactly what they do.

Better still, the Grammy-winning, banger-generating singer who also plays a mean flute will be seen and heard in not just one but two roles in this season’s final episode. You can get a peek at both of them via these first-look images.

EW explained the context of the episode in February:

“‘Homer’s Adventure Through the Windshield Glass’ is a bit of a form-breaker for the long-running animated Fox comedy, as the entire episode takes place in the few seconds that Homer goes flying through the windshield of his car during an accident.

‘We had this idea for a long time, and it always felt like a pipe dream, but then we figured out a way to do it,” executive producer Tim Long tells EW. ‘Then the issue from a story point of view is: ‘Who is he going to talk to?’ We thought, ‘Well, his incredibly messy car is going to be filled with children’s toys and stuff.’ So she’s playing this happy little elf doll that comes to life and becomes his spirit guide.’”

Long also shared that Lizzo “sang the hell out of” a song written for the episode titled “It Was Marge B*tch.” Fittingly, Lizzo dressed up as Marge Simpson for Halloween last year.

Lizzo had to cancel some recent concerts due to health issues, but that situation appears to have sorted itself out as she returned to the stage in Baltimore, Maryland on May 9. Now she has a different problem to deal with, though: Possibly being shadow banned on TikTok.

In a video shared yesterday (May 10), Lizzo stitched her previous video, a clip from the Baltimore gig, and said, “I’m officially shadow banned, because how did I post this on Instagram and it already has 135 thousand views [in less than 30 minutes]?” She captioned the post, “deleting this but this app getting wack [tomato emoji].”

To Lizzo’s point, the TikTok upload currently has 162,000 views while the same video on Instagram has 1.2 million views, despite Lizzo having substantially more followers on TikTok (26.9 million) than she does on Instagram (13.4 million).

Meanwhile, in a video today, she responded to a compliment from a fan, with a video in which she says, “Thank you, Catherine. I’m not posting tour footage on this app no more ’cause it’s under-appreciated, but I will respond to your comment. Thank you!”

Lizzo Postpones Another Tour Date Due To Illness

by

The strain of Lizzo’s hectic schedule is beginning to show. The artist has been keeping busy with shows all over the continent. She also recently attended the Met Gala in New York. Lizzo is currently in the midst of the second leg of her “Special” tour, which began in Knoxville, Tennessee. She invited several local drag queens to perform with her on stage during the show’s finale, which was a daring act of defiance against the state’s ongoing legal ban on drag. Lizzo’s actions are proof that the local drag scene is thriving despite the ban.

Lizzo shared the event with her followers on social media and thanked the drag queens for representing Tennessee with such pride. A rainbow of hearts was present in the background of the video, and her followers and fellow queens flooded the comments section with sincere messages of thanks. On her tour, Lizzo will visit Louisiana, Missouri, and Memphis. Currently, Missouri is attempting to pass legislation that would make adult cabaret performances on public property illegal. Meanwhile, Louisiana, a state with a conservative lean, may do the same in the future. Unfortunately, Lizzo’s prideful prowess has taken a hit after she got sick following the Met Gala.

Lizzo’s Mature Health Response

Late last week, Lizzo posted a video to her Instagram to speak directly to fans. In the video, she explains that she is extremely sick. As such, her Montreal date had to be postponed. Sadly for Lizzo fans, the same happened to her Hartford, CT date just a few days later. The pop star once again took to social media to explain the situation. “Hello Hartford, it is me. As you know, I canceled my Montreal show ’cause I was experiencing extreme flu-like symptoms,” Lizzo said. “I tested for COVID and it’s negative. However, I did test positive for strep throat. Though I’m feeling stronger, my body, my throat is still extremely raw and swollen.”

Although it is disappointing news, Lizzo points out that it is for the best. “In the past, I have pushed myself because I always want to bring you guys an incredible show. And I want to bring you guys the best of me,” she added. “And I’m realizing as I mature that this is not the best of me. I need to heal so that I can be the artist that you guys deserve and maintain my body. Still hurts to swallow, still hurts to speak, but it really hurts to cancel.” Stay tuned to HNHH for updates on Lizzo’s concert schedule.

While Lizzo recently performed at the 2023 Met Gala and was continuing her 2Special North American Tour, the pop star took to social media a few days ago to announce that she had to postpone a second show after getting strep throat.

“Hello Hartford, it is me. As you know, I canceled my Montreal show ’cause I was experiencing extreme flu-like symptoms,” Lizzo said in the Instagram video. “I tested for COVID and it’s negative. However, I did test positive for strep throat. Though I’m feeling stronger, my body, my throat is still extremely raw and swollen. My lymph nodes are swollen, and the doctors say that it would not be wise to sing while my throat is like this.”

“In the past, I have pushed myself because I always want to bring you guys an incredible show. And I want to bring you guys the best of me,” she added. “And I’m realizing as I mature that this is not the best of me. I need to heal so that I can be the artist that you guys deserve and maintain my body. Still hurts to swallow, still hurts to speak, but it really hurts to cancel.”

In the video’s caption, Lizzo does note that all current tickets will be honored for the new date. Her next show is intended for tonight in Baltimore.

Lizzo Cancels Montreal Concert Over Health Concerns

by

Lizzo’s insane schedule may finally be catching up with her. Between rushing to New York to attend the Met Gala to touring around the continent, she’s kept pretty busy. The artist is currently in the midst of the second leg of her Special tour. It started at the Thompson-Boling Arena in Knoxville, TN. During the show’s climax, she brought several drag queens from the area onstage to perform with her. It was a bold and daring act of defiance against the current legal situation surrounding drag in the state. Despite the ban, reports indicate that the local drag scene is thriving. Lizzo’s actions serve as evidence of this.

Lizzo took to social media to share the moment with her followers. She expressed gratitude towards the drag queens for showcasing their pride in Tennessee. The singer captioned the video with a rainbow of hearts, and her fans and fellow queens flooded the comments with heartfelt messages, clearly moved by Lizzo’s actions. Lizzo’s tour will take her to Memphis, Tennessee, as well as Missouri and Louisiana. Missouri is currently trying to pass a law that would criminalize adult cabaret performances on public property, while Louisiana, being a conservative-leaning state, may see anti-drag legislation in the future.

Lizzo’s Unscheduled Break

Lizzo’s busy schedule seems to be impacting her health, as evidenced by recent events. Despite being on tour and performing at major events such as the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival and the 2023 Met Gala, she was unable to perform at her scheduled concert in Montreal due to health concerns. Initially, news of her flu-like symptoms was shared on Twitter, but her profile is now private. In a video posted on her official Instagram, Lizzo apologized to her fans and confirmed that she would not be performing.

“I had a sore throat last night and a headache and went to bed,” Lizzo said in the video. “I woke up this morning, and my body is weak, and I have chills, and my head hurts. Normally, if it’s just a cold, I’d shower, I’d eat, take some medicine, and it gets better. But this is getting worse.” Lizzo remained apologetic throughout the video, telling fans that she would find a new day to play the city. “I think it’s the flu, and I have to make the unfortunate decision to cancel today. I want to find a date to reschedule, but I just can’t perform tonight.” Stay tuned to HNHH for more updates on Lizzo’s tour.

ESPN’s PK Subban Unexpectedly Body-Shamed Lizzo On The Air, A Move That People Are Not Happy About At All

During her time in the spotlight, Lizzo, unfortunately, has dealt with body shaming, whether from Kanye West or Aries Spears or Twitter trolls. Now, another name can be added to that list: PK Subban, a recently retired NHL all-star who’s currently a hockey analyst with ESPN.

During a recent broadcast (as The Huffington Post notes), Subban and his co-hosts were discussing the the NHL’s ongoing Stanley Cup Playoffs, specifically the Toronto Maple Leafs’ recent home loss to the Florida Panthers. John Buccigross said the Leafs should “pack a lunch” in preparation for the next game, and Subban replied, “Maybe they need to pack a Lizzo-sized lunch.”

Subban has yet to offer a public comment about what he said, but he did take to Twitter to explain the meaning of all the lunch talk, writing, “Pack a lunch… lock in! Be ready to compete! Bring work boots! Expect that they are going to try and outwork you in hard areas!”

Naturally, people didn’t care for Subban’s Lizzo joke. One Twitter user wrote, “My dad on Subban’s Lizzo comment last night. ‘Subban took cheap shots all through his hockey career. Why did anyone think he’d stop after he retired?’” Another said, “‘Maybe they need to pack a lizzo sized lunch.’ PK Subban. F*ck you, PK. Black women aren’t a punchline for you.”
