The 35-year-old nonchalantly took the stage before addressing the audience, but not the elephant in the room — her allegations of discrimination and sexual harassment. She said:
“What’s up, everybody? Here’s the Grammy Award that’s gone to the all-time greats, from Stevie Wonder to Prince to Alicia Keys to Beyoncé. These are our soulfully gifted nominees for best R&B song.”
She then opened the envelope to proudly reveal SZA had won for her song Snooze. The SOS album maker excitedly gave Lizzo a hug before accepting the award from her longtime friend. Watch (below):
But amid all of the Cuz I Love You singer’s controversies, fans weren’t sold…
Plenty of viewers who remember Lizzo is defending herself from a lawsuit stemming from her alleged mistreatment of former backup dancers. On X (Twitter), they wrote things like:
“So…..whatever happened to the Lizzo allegations???? They just went away or???? And now she’s at the Grammys like nothing happened? #GRAMMYs #lizzo”
“lizzo still being invited to these award shows still is crazy”
“I thought I’d see Tupac before I’d ever see Lizzo again #GRAMMYs”
“multiple sexual harassment allegations and shes still on stage”
Other fans, though, defended her appearance:
“Innocent until proven guilty, I thought.”
“Seeing SZA & Lizzo embrace was beautiful. SZA has gone through so much in the industry. Snooze was an amazing song on an amazing album. That was a loaded category. I love how authentic she is. I love seeing Black women winning and loving on each other. #GRAMMYS”
