Grimes put out a statement today on twitter/X defending Lizzo.
"I love Lizzo. Not saying I don't believe ppl when bad things happen, but I had dancers mistreated on my watch in ways I didn't find out about until way later. Mebe shit is bad. But loyalty matters to me. Lizzo was kind to me and others for a decade before she was "cool", and she checked in in me when no one cared. I've only ever seen exemplary behavior from her, especially when everyone was hating on me and she was on top of the world. There was no reason for her to check in, besides to be a good person. Just my two cents. I recall when she first blew up being so happy because I'd never known such an admirable person to find fame in the music industry.

Yes. No one mentioned coddling abusers. The absolute worst case here sounds like hella ppl were drunk and no one was injured. Let's approach reality with logic.

I see a society crumbling under the weight of human imperfection because people can't handle that we all fuck up, I see humans becoming pathetic shadows of themselves, fighting for a fragile acceptance by turning against their friends.

She also defended Doja Cat yesterday.

This is simply a masterpiece. I don't think it's cool to lash out at fans but I don't think anyone can truly understand the psychic perils of fame unless they've been thru it. And I've never seen genius without dragon energy.

Doja has always been a friend and deeply kind… https://t.co/DWWDSrAjPg

Who cares? I go back and forth on whether my old shit is good or not. Ppl have diff moods. It just literally doesn't matter and life is happier when u just enjoy ppls art and let them go thru the artistic process and all the eccentricities that accompany that
