«It’s fat-phobic and it’s racist and it’s hurtful.» Cardi B jumped in to defend singer Lizzo after she said some of the reactions to the duo’s new music video collaboration were “racist” and “fat-phobic.” The 33-year-old “Truth Hurts” singer broke down on Instagram Live on Sunday, admitting that on the days she feels she should be happiest she has felt “so down” and “a lot of people don’t like me because of the way I look.” “I was overwhelmed today,” she said in the tearful video. “I saw a lot of things I didn’t want to see today. I read a lot of hurtful words that triggered a lot of deep feelings. And I’m not even going to say them, to give them power.” Lizzo is known for championing the body positivity movement in the entertainment industry, saying that as a plus-sized woman she never had the “luxury” of hiding behind a “veneer of being sexy and being marketable.” “I just feel like I’m seeing negativity directed towards me in the most weirdest way, like, people saying s–t about me that just doesn’t even make sense.
