'Lizzo says she 'quits,' tired of being 'dragged' by public: 'Didn't sign up for this s‐t'
[NY Post] Lizzo says she is "quitting" — seemingly the music industry — months after her former backup dancers accused her of sexual harassment, body-shaming and creating a hostile work environment in a lawsuit.
Yeah. Take the money and waddle.
The 35-year-old "Truth Hurts" singer posted a statement to her Instagram on Friday, telling her 12.1 million followers, "I’m getting tired of putting up with being dragged by everyone in my life and on the internet."

"All I want is to make music and make people happy and help the world be a little better than how I found it. But I’m starting to feel like the world doesn’t want me in it," she wrote.

What about the poor bastards that have to do the dragging?

#7 Torn down by the type of fandom she created.

Gosh if there was only a lesson in there somewhere, a forewarning from history even.

#8 Despite not caring in the slightest for her ‘talent,’ let’s hope she doesn’t really decide to quit by jumping off a bridge; Secretary Pete already has one disaster on his hands; dealing with the results of a tsunami would probably send the lad home in tears.

#11 Yup; nailed the OnlyFans theme song.

Always interesting watching these cogs made to sell product realize they never really had talent or fans, and how they handle it.

#13 The part that I am having trouble wrapping my mind around is that she was an employer.
