« I can’t get over the fact [that] she looks like the sh*t emoji. She is a very beautiful girl. She has a very pretty face, but she keeps showing off her body. Come on man,” Spears said in a clip of the interview shared online. « I’m not the fittest nigga in the world, but when you’re funny and you’ve got cockiness and confidence and you look decent. I think I’m at least handsome…you get p***y. But a woman who’s built like a plate of mashed potatoes is in trouble. She’s dope. Her music is hard…her body isn’t.
The comedian and actor added, “You know what kills me about women? Hypocrisy and contradiction. “Yeah, queen. “Kill, queen. F**k diabetes. F**k heart issues. F**k heart disease, cholesterol. You all claim femininity and talk about sisterhood, but if you really loved your sister, you’d say ‘Black girl, we love you and trust you, but that’s not it.’

Following her shocking comments, Twitter went wild, siding with Lizzo. Many users also pointed out the irony of Spears’ criticism of Lizzo’s weight, pointing out that the comedian himself wasn’t in his best shape.
« All the time you’re breathing hard while sitting and Lizzo dances in heels for hours AND plays the flute during them », a user tweeted. « And PSA: Being fat doesn’t mean you’re unhealthy. »
“Every word was useless. Silence is free. #AriesSpears should have kept silent,” another wrote.

I am truly blown away that Aries Spears had the audacity to attack Lizzo because she was fat. He’s a fat black man urging us to weaponize fatphobia against Lizzo, math just isn’t math pic.twitter.com/NCEdaEIfwn

#AriesSpears ? Never heard of them. @lizzo the goddess ? The one who is beautiful, talented, kind, super active, eats her vegetables and practices self-love. She is exactly the one I would have liked to have had in my youth to admire. You cannot diagnose other people’s health based on the outside. 🖕🏻 pic.twitter.com/yUDvy6G0G9

It wasn’t a joke. The joke is supposed to make you laugh. And I didn’t laugh, it drove me crazy. #AriesSpears pic.twitter.com/rJXSOJ3zBZ

#AriesSpears is just another black man shooting a black woman. Lizzo is gorgeous inside and out. I love how confident she is in her body. most plus size women are not. she kisses him to show these women that it’s okay to be plus size confident.
