Ben Shapiro: Lizzo's MTV Victim Rant Does Democrats Fat Lot Of Good

[Ubiquitous]

Lizzo, who once sang that the “Truth Hurts,” got a huge helping of it
from Ben Shapiro Monday, a day after the plus-sized performer railed on
the MTV Video Music Awards against “laws that oppress us” and a comic
who called her fat.

The Daily Wire co-founder told his vast podcast audience that another
liberal millionaire artist claiming to be a victim won’t help Democrats
win elections. And her own denial about her ample size won’t help the
“About Damn Time” singer lose weight, Shapiro said.

“It’s hard to think of a less oppressed figure than Lizzo,” Shapiro
said. “This is a danger to Democrats. The more they preach that, the
more they lose.”

Lizzo made her remarks while picking up the award for “Music Video for
Good,” a designation she said she didn’t even understand. She thanked
those who voted for her, and then made a profane pivot to politics.

“Your vote means everything to me, it means everything to making a
change in this country,” she said. “So, remember, when you’re voting
for your favorite artist, vote to change some of these laws that are
oppressing us.”

Lizzo, who campaigned for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris in the 2020
election, didn’t mention any specific laws, or even how voting for a
music award could advance a political agenda. Still, she managed to
make an appeal for the “hierarchy of victimhood inside the Democratic
Party,” Shapiro noted.

Without mentioning comedian Aries Spears, Lizzo appeared to complain
about a remark he made Friday on “The Art of Dialogue” podcast.

“She’s got a very pretty face, but she keeps showing her body off,”
Spears said. “Sister, put the eclair down. This ain’t it. It’s
treadmill time.”

Lizzo, who earlier this year wore a thong bikini for a photo shoot,
should probably expect comments about her weight, especially since she
embraces it in interviews, said Shapiro.

“I wake up into my obese bed,” Lizzo said in an Instagram video last
year. “I have to get, like, a king bed because I’m so obese. And I put
on my obese Louis Vuitton house slippers, and I walk into my massive,
obese bathroom, and I just stare into my wall-to-wall, obese mirror,
and I just lather myself in the most obese, expensive oils and creams.”

“Apparently she’s surprised because somebody told a joke about the fact
that she is fat,” Shapiro said. “And I mean, I hate to break it to the
world, but Lizzo is overweight.”

Spears, Shapiro noted, made the point that those who care about health
– Lizzo’s or anyone else’s – should not encourage obesity.
