Lizzo Acknowledges "Fat Lizzo" Nickname Six Years Later: Lizzo vs Azealia Banks Beef Explained

Fat Lizzo or I Hate You Fat Lizzo refers to a viral video posted to Instagram stories by Azealia Banks, in which the controversial rapper attacks American musician Lizzo, seemingly unprovoked, repeatedly calling her "fat Lizzo," stating," I hate you fat Lizzo." The video, which was posted sometime in 2020, would circulate on pop-music-oriented online spaces such as Stan Twitter and music-centric Subreddits such as r/popheadcirclejerk for several years before Lizzo herself would acknowledge the mean-spirited nickname in 2026.
