In response, Lizzo said, “Ooooh. We got to go! I’m just going to say — a little bit. I ain’t talking about this… We’re talking about “Big Grrrls” and how we’re changing the world, goddamnit.”

Her show, "Watch Out For The Big Grrrls" took home two Emmy awards, for Outstanding Directing and Outstanding Picture Editing for a structured reality or competition program.
