Beyoncé is setting the record straight on her feelings toward Lizzo — not only is she back to name-dropping the artist in song, she also singled her out with a loving shout-out.
Bey was bringing the house down, per usual, Monday night at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in ATL, and performed “Break My Soul (The Queens Remix),” which supports her fellow female artists — including Lizzo — by shouting them out.

You may recall, Lizzo was notably absent from the song’s callout section during a Beyoncé show earlier this month, but she was back on the lineup a couple of days later. Bey took things a step further this time, though — saying, “I love you, Lizzo!”
The crowd certainly took that as a sign — one fan in the crowd even responded, “OK!”
As we reported, Beyoncé ditched Lizzo’s name at a Massachusetts show on August 1 … coming directly after the “About Damn Time” singer was slapped with a lawsuit from 3 of her former dancers, claiming she created a hostile work environment with alleged sexual harassment and fat-shaming, among other things.
Lizzo, for what it’s worth, has denied the allegations against her … and it looks like Beyoncé’s got Lizzo’s back, and then some.
