Judge Joe Brown unleashed a scathing critique of Lizzo throughout a latest look on The Art of Dialogue, focusing on her look, public habits and what he sees as a broader cultural shift in magnificence requirements and well being.

“Lizzo looks grotesque and she’s an embarrassment,” Brown mentioned, referencing the singer’s viral efficiency the place she performed a crystal flute as soon as owned by former U.S. President James Madison. “She shows up at a major Philharmonic production and she’s using a glass flute that belonged to a President of the United States of America. All of the women there are in formal ball gowns down to their ankles. The men have on white tie and tails and she shows up naked with a flimsy little piece of lingerie on looking like a hogzilla playing that glass flute. Yes, she has talent, but what is she doing?”

Brown then shifted his focus to the evolving requirements in media, significantly in health and modeling. He criticized Sports Illustrated for what he described as a decline in bodily beliefs.

“Take Sports Illustrated,” he continued. “Tell you where it’s progress to. Sports Illustrated starts off and it still is there. You get the prime examples of male physical prowess. These physically impressive specimens of masculinity, football players, boxers, wrestlers, track stars, swimmers, skiers, you know, they are the epitome of fitness. You used to have the women counterparts, the models. They were beautiful, toned bodies, looked like racehorses. And now you got fat slobs on there that look like they couldn’t run from the front porch to the sidewalk. And that’s supposed to be female beauty.”

Brown continued his commentary with a comparability to the Muppets character Miss Piggy, saying, “Well, what did you simply say in regards to the boys which might be nonetheless in there trying bodily match, Superman fashion specimens of masculinity, and now they get Miss Piggy and I’m sorry.

“I walked in a barbecue place not long ago and I’m looking at the wall and there is a full-size poster of Miss Piggy and Miss Piggy used to go look grotesque. Remember when she used to chase her Kermit and Kermit would be trying to get away? Now I’m looking at Miss Piggy and Miss Piggy looks normal cuz most of the women in the place look like Miss Piggy or they’re bigger.”

He added that whereas he doesn’t query the price of people, he believes the glorification of unhealthy existence is harmful. “Not saying that they’re not lovely personal women, but they’re going to drop dead a heart attack, strokes, or whatever, Type 2 diabetes because of the problems. That’s not healthy.”

Brown concluded by suggesting that Lizzo’s public persona is masking deeper points. “They’re glorifying those that couldn’t make it in the actual world. What occurs if there’s a pure catastrophe? These individuals wouldn’t survive. So why are you attempting to push this? It’s compensation for an inferiority advanced.

“That’s the psychology behind it. That woman detests and despises herself, but she broadcasts it as an effort to convince others that she’s proud of it. She’s not. She needs help. Not not adulation. She needs help. I feel sorry for her.”

Brown’s remarks have reignited debates round physique picture, illustration and public shaming, significantly within the leisure trade. Lizzo has not but responded to Brown’s feedback as of publication.
