US singer Lizzo attends a get out the vote campaign rally with Vice
President and Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris at Western
International High School in Detroit, Michigan, October 19, 2024.
Lizzo has faced criticism from social
media users after she spoke at a Kamala Harris rally where she said if
Harris is elected as president, “the whole country will be like
Detroit.”
On Saturday, Lizzo joined the vice president during her rally in Detroit, where the pop star is originally from.
“I mean, the whole country is going to be like — you want to know the
truth — it’ll be like Detroit… Our whole country will end up being like
Detroit,” she said. “They say if Kamala Harris wins, the whole country
will be like Detroit. Proud like Detroit. Resilient like Detroit.”
Social media users quickly began criticizing Lizzo’s remarks, as
Detroit currently has an 8.8% unemployment rate, which is more than
twice the national average.
“Lizzo said, ‘If Kamala wins, the whole country will be like
Detroit,’ as she spoke at Kamala rally in Michigan. Does anyone else see
a problem with that, or just me?” one account posted.
“My theory has been that Democrats know everything is about to
collapse and they actually want Trump to win,” comedian David Angelo
wrote in a post on X.
