Lizzo twerked in a thong at a Lakers game and it was a moment


#Lizzo #Twerk #LosAngelesLakers #Juice
CNN)Twitter can stay mad about Lizzo's revealing outfit, but she's still feeling "Good As Hell."
The zaftig 31-year-old singer attended the Los Angles Lakers matchup with the Minnesota Timberwolves on Sunday and sparked some controversy because of her choice of outfits.
Her black T-shirt dress was demure from the front, but a party in the back with cut-outs which displayed her thong and fishnet stockings.

Folks got a better view -- and on the Jumbotron no less -- when Lizzo twerked during the Laker Girls' performance to her song "Juice."

    Keep in mind that it ain't Lizzo's fault that she's out here getting loose, but her mini performance was further evidence that everything she does is bigger than her.
    By showing the world what she's working with, Lizzo sparked a debate over what is appropriate attire in public and whether she was more harshly judged because of her size.
    "This is not about Lizzo being fat, twerking, or hating on her," one person tweeted. "This is about her seeking attention, coming into an arena with kids and family dressed inappropriately."
    Still others praised the singer for her daring.
    "If you have to preface your criticism of Lizzo with, "it's not because she's fat and Black," chances are you feel small type of way about fat Black women," one tweet read. "And I'mma just leave it there."
    Several people brought up outfits such as Rihanna's sheer dress which left her breasts and thong visible at the 2014 CFDA Fashion Awards as an example of how a thinner artist is seemingly allowed to be more provocative in their attire.
      For her part Lizzo took to Instagram Live to say folks who don't like a certain part of her body can "kiss it."
      "This is who I've always been. Now everyone's looking at it and your criticism can just remain your criticism," she said. "Your criticism has no effect on me, negative criticism has no stake in my life, no control over my life, over my emotions."

      Why Christopher Reeve's ''Superman' Is So Hard to Leave in the Past

      #ChristopherReeve #Clarkkent #DCcomics #LoisLane #RichardDonner #Superman Forty years ago, Richard Donner and Christopher Reeve made a Superhero film that directors have been chasing for years, depicting who America was then — or at least who we wished to be Superman. It’s now easy to believe a man can fly. It wasn’t in 1978, but today, in midst of an explosion of superhero movies, it’s a belief we give into with relative ease. Flight is most often the bare minimum of what we expect from heroes and villains who can perform any feat limited only by the human imagination. It’s not simply special effects that permit our belief, but rather an overall acceptance that these costume-clad characters are a defining part of our culture, modern myths at their best and populist cinematic staples akin to the 20th century western at their lowest form. There have been a record nine theatrically released superhero movies based on comic books this year alone, each claiming a major piece of the glo...

      Stevie Wonder, his Musicality, and his Humanity.

      #Humanity #Music #SongsintheKeyofLife #StevieWonder " Songs in the Key of Life " To say this Album means Everything to me is an understatement. Throughout his conceptual album, Stevie both sings and writes of Peace, Love, Identity, Faith, Environmental Consciousness, and Cultural Awareness , to name a few. When the album was released, I was ten years old. I spent countless hours reading the liner notes—the lyrics for all the songs. I wanted to know all the people who wrote, sang, played on the album. Much of the album's depth was far too over my head as a ten-year-old, and only a few years later (Lol) do I have a little more understanding of what he was giving us. I've seen Stevie Wonder three times in my life. The first was in church, not long after moving to Los Angeles. The second time while attending Oprah's Farwell show (thanks to my brother Corey & sister in law Carrie), the third time was when my sister Sharon (R.I.P.) bought tickets for all of us ...
