Allegations against Lizzo are ‘really damaging’: Attorney Andrew Stoltmann
Attorney Andrew Stoltmann unpacks the allegations against singer Lizzo on ‘Fox News Live.’
Lizzo appeared to take a "South Park" joke against her in stride after the long-running animated series mocked her in a recent episode.
The show aired a television special on Paramount+ Friday titled "The End of Obesity" which referenced the singer as an alternative to the weight-loss drug Ozempic, harnessing the power of "not giving a f--k."
"FDA-approved Lizzo makes you feel good about your weight, and it costs 90% less than Ozempic," a voiceover said. "In case studies, 70% of patients on Lizzo no longer cared how much they weighed. Lizzo helps you eat everything you want and keep physical activity to a minimum."
"I’ve lowered my standards and my expectations," one character explained. "I don’t give two s--ts!"

The commercial added, "Some patients report constipation while listening to Lizzo … Serious side effects may include pancreatitis, hypothermia and literally s--t out your ears."
Lizzo took to Instagram and TikTok to do a live reaction to the scene on Saturday.
"My worst fear has been actualized," Lizzo told fans. "I’ve been referenced in a South Park episode. I’m so scared. I’m gonna blind-duet to it right now."
After the clip, she remarked, "That’s crazy. I just feel like, damn, I’m really that b-tch. I’m really that b-tch. I really showed the world how to love yourself and not give a f--- to the point where these men in Colorado know who the f--- I am and put it on their cartoon that’s been around for 25 years."
She continued, "I’m really that b---h and I show you how to not give a f--k and I’ll keep showing you how to not give a f--k."
