Lizzo threatens to 'quit' music in response to 'bulls**t' fatphobic comments about her
Lizzo has threatened to quit music after being hit with horrific comments about her weight "daily". The 'About Damn Time' singer has been vocal about trolls in the past but on Wednesday (31 May) shared several examples in a string of now-private tweets. "I JUST logged on [to] the app and this is the type of s*** I see about me on a daily basis," she wrote on Twitter. She included a post from one brutal critic Layah Hailpern, who said: "How is Lizzo still THIS fat when she’s constantly moving this much on stage?! I wonder what she must be eating." Sign up for our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Lizzo went on to say "Then someone in the comments said I eat ‘lots of fast food,' before exclaiming how she "literally stopped eating fast food years ago." She explained how she's "tired of explaining myself all the time and I just wanna get on this app w/out seeing my name in some bulls***". A separate post saw the star react to another comment, reading: "I don’t think Lizzie wants to be smaller... yet... If she did, she would be. It’s her brand." Lizzo hit back: "This is what my body looks like even when I’m eating super clean and working out. Y’all speak on s*** y’all know NOTHING ABOUT and I’m starting to get heated." The 35-year-old continued: "The Love definitely do not outweigh the Hate on social media... all because I’m fat???? This is CRAZY. "I HATE IT HERE," she fumed, before threatening to quit music. "Y’all don’t know how close I be to giving up on everyone and quitting and enjoying my money and my man on a F***ING FARM." Have your say in our news democracy.

Will Smith considering legal action against friend who claims actor is gay
Will Smith's team has shut down claims that the actor is gay and was caught in a sex act with fellow Fresh Prince actor Duane Martin years back. The reps called the rumour "unequivocally false". Brother Bilaal claimed to be his former friend of 40 years to the star. He recently sat down with Tasha K with a string of claims aimed at Smith. At one point, he explicitly described what he allegedly saw in Martin's dressing room while working on a Hollywood set. Brother Bilaal said he was asked to keep his eye on Smith, but he was nowhere to be found. He said he had the keys to Martin's dressing room, where he allegedly discovered the pair in the act. "I see Duane having anal sex with Will," he claimed. "There was a couch and Will was bent over the couch and Duane was standing up killing him, murdering him. It was murder in there." "This story is completely fabricated and the claim is unequivocally false," Smith's rep told TMZ and that legal action is being considered against Bilaal. Brother Bilaal also went on to pass comment about Smith's manhood, calling it a "pinky toe". It comes after Jada Pinkett Smith dropped a bombshell that she and Will have not been together for seven years. They simply never divorced. Jada told Hoda Kotb on Today that she "made a promise that there will never be a reason for us to get a divorce" and that the pair will "work through whatever". "I just haven't been able to break that promise," she said. She went on to confirm that the pair also live separately, and when asked how the two maintained the arrangement, she responded: "I think just not being ready yet."
