‘Tempo’ performer Lizzo saw her name speed to the top of headlines over the weekend when she donned a risqué, buttocks-baring ensemble to the Los Angeles Lakers vs. Minnesota Timberwolves game Sunday (December 8).  As if that wasn’t enough, the 31-year-old broke out into a twerk when her song, ‘Juice,’ was played over the venue’s loud speaker.

Beyond garnering a bevy of complaints from concerned parents (as it was a family friendly event), some detractors pointed to the Platinum-selling singer’s size as the reason the outfit was inappropriate.  As heated discussions about the limits of body positivity, fat-shaming, and bias rage on, Liz took to social media to respond to the ongoing criticism – a commentary that led her to tears as she reflected on her journey to self-acceptance.

Backlash has acted as no deterrent for John Legend and Kelly Clarkson as they continue to promote their revamped version of the holiday classic, ‘Baby, It’s Cold Outside’ (featured on the deluxe edition of the former’s ‘Legendary Christmas’ album).

Despite earning resistance for its updated lyrics, which were reimagined to be more socially conscious than the original, the duo gave the tune its first live rendition via a stunning performance on ‘The Voice’ last week.  The acclaim from the showing must have prompted an encore because the Grammy winners – who both serve as judges on this season of the reality talent competition – reunited on Clarkson’s top-rated talk show for yet another impressive rendition.
