Lizzo watches ‘brutal’ South Park parody live

Singer Lizzo recorded her reaction as she watched South Park take aim at her trademark body positivity in a savage new episode.

Lizzo has entered the chat.

The About Damn Time singer, 36, spoke out after South Park targeted her in a new weight loss episode called “The End of Obesity,” streaming locally on Paramount+.

“Guys, my worst fear has been actualised,” she said in a video posted to Instagram yesterday. “I’ve been referenced in a South Park episode. I’m so scared.”

Lizzo – who has been an advocate for body positivity – then mirrored the episode on her screen to show viewers her reaction in a “blind duet.”

The clip featured sitcom character Sharon Marsh walking in the park with Sheila Broflovski, raving about how the “new drugs” she was prescribed were “pretty amazing.”

Marsh said she previously felt “so ashamed” of herself for not having the “willpower” to work out and eat less to shed pounds.

The fictional character then explained that her doctor wouldn’t prescribe her Ozempic or Mounjaro as her insurance wouldn’t cover it because she didn’t have Type II Diabetes.

However, the medical professional said there was “a whole new obesity drug” for people who couldn’t “afford” the cost of the celebrity-loved medication.

Lizzo settles in to watch …

… as South Park brutally parodies her.

“I’ve controlled all my cravings to be thinner with Lizzo,” Marsh said, as Lizzo’s mouth dropped in shock.

The clip then rolled into a commercial for the advertised “once-weekly diet suppressor,” which was raved to have “lowered standards and expectations” about weight.

The ad noted that “case studies” cited that “70 per cent of patients on Lizzo no longer care about how much they weigh.”

They also bashed the Good As Hell rapper, claiming the drug allows users to “eat everything” they want and “keep physical activity to a minimum.”

The fictional 'Lizzo' drug had some unfortunate side effects.

Lizzo’s eyes continued to widen as the commercial continued, “Stop listening to Lizzo if you experience suicidal thoughts. Serious side effects include pancreatitis, hypothermia [and] s**tting out your ears.”

“That’s crazy,” she said after stopping the clip. “I just feel like, damn, ‘I’m really that b***h.”

Referencing South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone, she added, “I really showed the world how to love yourself and not give a f**k to a point where these men in Colorado know who the f**k 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’ll show y’all how to not give a f**k and I’m going to keep on showing you how to not give a f**k.”

Mimicking the commercial jingle, she signed off, “Oh, oh Lizzooo, b**ch.”

Several fans were also left shocked, as one commented, “THAT WAS BRUTAL.”

“I did NOT expect it to go that way,” another added.

“Took it like a queen,” a third chimed in, referring to the hitmaker’s response.

While Lizzo has always embraced her body, she’s currently in the middle of a scathing lawsuit filed by a group of ex-dancers alleging that she fat-shamed and sexually harassed them.

In September 2023, the Truth Hurts singer claimed via her lawyers that the suit should be dismissed for several reasons.

She also spoke out on social media, referring to the allegations as “false” and saying she’d “never criticise or terminate an employee because of their weight.”
