“Rumors” rapper Cardi B is furious about her collaborator Lizzo’s recent body shaming by trolls and has lashed out at those responsible.
In a recent Instagram Live session, Lizzo had spoken of how the negative comments about her weight was affecting her.
Cardi B, who was displeased by what Lizzo had suffered in the hands of trolls, stood up for her friend. In a tweet, she noted that those who stand up for themselves are liable to be described as problematic and sensitive. And when you don’t, they simply savage you like they had done in Lizzo’s case.
When you stand up for yourself they claim your problematic & sensitive.When you don’t they tear you apart until you crying like this.

And for those who are using Lizzo’s song to hide their body shaming antics, Cardi B has equally harsh words. She described their actions as mean and racist, while informing that the song is going great on several platforms.
Rumors is doing great. Stop trying to say the song is flopping to dismiss a woman emotions on bullying or acting like they need sympathy. The song is top 10 on all platforms. Body shaming and callin her mammy is mean & racist as fuck. pic.twitter.com/Dr2t06mjEs

By the way, Cardi B herself had been a victim of body shaming previously. She’s apparently grown a thick skin and now no longer gives a f what people think about her. She’s out for the coins and just the coins.
