<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s about damn time!&#8221; <strong>Lizzo</strong> was the internet&#8217;s trending topic over the weekend due to some unsavory comments that went viral about her appearance. And she used her winning moment to speak out against the hate.</p>
<p>The GRAMMY award-winning singer took the stage at the <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/nicki-minaj-speaks-on-importance-of-mental-health-during-vmas-video-vanguard-acceptance-speech/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">2022 Video Music Awards (VMAs)</a> to accept the &#8216;Video for Good&#8217; award tonight and seemingly addressed comedian <strong>Aries Spears</strong>, who called her out in an interview.</p>
<p>In her speech, she said, &#8220;And now, to the b****es that got something to say about me in the press,&#8221; she yelled into the mic,</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;You know what, I&#8217;m not gonna say nothing.&#8221; She paused and continued, &#8220;They be like, &#8216;Lizzo, why don&#8217;t you clap back?&#8217; &#8216;Cause b***h I&#8217;m winning, h*e. Big b****es winning, h*e! The best revenge is your paper, b***h!&#8221;</p></blockquote>

<p>Lizzo also took a moment to share the powerful message on social media, She added the caption:</p>
<blockquote><p><span class="css-901oao css-16my406 r-poiln3 r-bcqeeo r-qvutc0">KEEP MY NAME IN YO MOUF CUS I KNOW IT TASTE GOOD BI*CH.</span></p></blockquote>

<h3 style="text-align: center;">Aries Spears Body Shamed Lizzo</h3>
<p>In case you missed it Aries had very distasteful remarks about the singer during a recent &#8216;Art of Dialogue interview.&#8217; The comedian said,</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;I can&#8217;t get past the fact that she looks like the s**t emoji. She&#8217;s got a very pretty face, but she keeps showing her body off like, come on, man. Come on, yo.&#8221;</p>
<p>He continued, &#8220;I&#8217;m sorry. Listen, I ain&#8217;t the most in-shape n***a in the world, but I still, when you funny and you got swagger and confidence and you decent looking, I think I&#8217;m at least handsome, you get p***y. But a woman that&#8217;s built like a plate of mashed potatoes is in trouble.&#8221;</p></blockquote>

<p>Shortly after Aries trended for his comments, the backlash came, and of course, he responded but failed to issue an apology.</p>

<p>Several people came to Lizzo&#8217;s defense, including comedian Mike Epps. Mike called out Aries for looking dirty and for a failing career.</p>
