Lizzo has been criticised online after footage emerged of her calling Chris Brown “my favourite person in the whole fucking world”.
In a new video circulating online, Lizzo is seen posing for a photo with Brown, before giving him the compliment.
Earlier this year, it was reported that Brown was under police investigation after a woman alleged that he physically assaulted her at his home.
A sexual assault lawsuit against Brown was also dismissed last year after the singer settled out of court. An unknown woman identified as Jane Doe filed a lawsuit against Brown in 2018, alleging that she was raped multiple times by a man named Lowell Grissom Jr. while attending a party at the singer’s home in February 2017.
Years later, in 2017, he was accused of “blaming” Rihanna for his assault on her by various domestic abuse charities.

A number of others pointed out that others who have collaborated with Brown in recent years have done so without the same backlash Lizzo is receiving.
One wrote: “People being outraged at Lizzo’s love for Chris Brown while so many other artists be out here supporting/collaborating with him with no backlash, makes zero sense. Don’t make me go down the list of people…Just say you don’t like her.”

Elsewhere, Lizzo recently gave a TED Talk on twerking. During the 13-minute “TED twerk”, which was originally filmed in August, the singer shared her struggles with body acceptance and said that: “Through the movement of twerking, I discovered my ass is my greatest asset.”
The singer returned earlier this year with new Cardi B collaboration ‘Rumors’. Reviewing the song, NME wrote: “The result is a brilliant return from Lizzo that combines her signature sense of fun with some well-placed spikiness.
“On this evidence, she has no intention of relinquishing her self-proclaimed title as “America’s next bop star”.”
