Lizzo, Dove Cameron and Nicki Minaj spoke directly into their fans’ hearts at the 2022 MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday, sharing inspiring messages combatting hate.
The “About Damn Time” singer, 34, received the video for good award, which presenter Bebe Rexha voiced is all about musicians who “push us to be better to ourselves and nicer to each other.”
When Lizzo took the stage, she thanked fans for voting and discussed the importance of voting for change.
“Your vote means everything to me,” she said. “(Your vote) means everything to make a change in this country. So, remember when you’re voting for your favorite artists, vote to change some of these laws that are oppressing us.”
The musician also made a pointed remark toward people who “got something to say about me in the press” that she’s winning.
Lizzo’s remark about people talking about her to the press came on the heels of comedian Aries Spears fat-shaming her in an interview with “The Art of Dialogue” podcast Friday.
