Houston’s own ‘Lizzo’ pauses concert in Australia to help young ‘bullied’ fan overcome her haters
Here’s yet another reason to add to the list of why we love Lizzo!
The Houston native, who is a global superstar, paused her show in Sydney, Australia to celebrate an 11-year-old audience member who needed a little pick-me-up.
In videos posted to social media by concertgoers, Lizzo saw Monroe Mills in the audience holding a sign that read, “Help me show my haters I’m 100% that B.”
That line is a nod to lyrics in Lizzo’s hit song “Truth Hurts.”
When Lizzo asked Monroe why she needed her help, the girl’s response was heartbreaking.
Monroe told Lizzo that she gets bullied on social media and told that she’s not good enough, and she just wants to dance and sing like Lizzo.
Well, Lizzo brought Monroe on stage and let her perform with her as the crowd chanted her name.

Lizzo also publicly reminded everyone that our words DO hurt others.
She also recorded a cellphone video telling the bullies to leave Monroe alone because she’s a star and a diva.
Way to go Lizzo!
