Lizzo Talks About Being Heckled at the Met Gala During Candid Instagram Live
It's the first Monday in May, which means the 2023 Met Gala is TONIGHT! And while there's no doubt that this is one of the most glam nights of the year, apparently there are some downsides.
Lizzo opened up about her experience at the Met Gala in 2022, reportedly saying on Instagram Live (according to the Daily Mail) that the line was endless, there wasn't much to drink, and she was heckled by photographers.
"There's a long fucking line," Lizzo explained. "I'm taking the glamour away from it but it's true. You've gotta wait. So you're waiting and that's the hardest part. I was sweating in a big-ass coat, my feet were hurting."
"I was like, 'Bitch? Can we get some chairs or some drinks or some hors d'oeuvres?" she added. "They were being really stingy with the liquor that night. He was like, 'Red or white wine? And I was like, 'Tequila! Do you know what I've been through? Do you know how many hours I've been in this corset? How long I've been in these damn shoes? Tequila!'.
Lizzo also revealed that photographers straight-up ruined her flute performance: "I had this plan to play the flute and do the whole intro [of a classical piece] but I got nervous and I only played it once because all the photographers were heckling me. They were like, 'You're putting us to sleep with the flute!' I was like, 'OK?' In my mind I thought everyone was going to be transfixed. So I only played it once, only the first half of it. Then I posed and got the photos."
Unclear if Lizzo will be on the carpet tonight, but photogs better let her do her thing if so!
