There is no Lana Del Rey and Lizzo feud, as parody claims go viral

Despite social media buzz to the contrary, Lana Del Rey and Lizzo are not feuding.

On Wednesday (November 13), a viral tweet falsely claimed the singers had traded insults on TikTok. In the edited interaction, Lizzo writes “I’d like to see you back on the charts” while Del Rey replies: “I would love to see you run on a treadmill.”

Although the account circulating the fake screenshots online makes clear in its bio it’s a parody of pop culture news accounts popular on the app – its similarity to accounts such as @PopCrave led some users to believe it was real.

The post was viewed over 20 million times, and doubled down by editing further insults in a follow-up post, in which Lizzo is edited to say: “I hope that alligator eats your big ass”, a reference to the ‘Ultraviolence’ singer’s marriage to alligator tour boat guide Jeremy Dufrene.

Their fake interaction concluded with a jab at Lizzo’s weight, with Del Rey saying: “You’d know about eating biggie”. The ‘Truth Hurts’ singer has previously addressed fans’ allegations that she’s used Ozempic to aid her weight loss journey, after allegations arose when the singer started sharing videos on social media of her losing weight.

Back in September, Lizzo responded to the allegations, singling out a comment on one of her posts that reads: “Did she use Ozempic or did she snort coke?”. In her latest post, Lizzo wrote: “When you finally get ozempic allegations after five months of weight training and calorie deficit”.

During Halloween this year, she took the occasion to once again address Ozempic allegations, by dressing as a glam version of the diet-suppressing drug.

Del Rey has since addressed the bizarre fake feud, calling it “very random” while explaining she didn’t think she had an official TikTok.

The singer announced her 10th studio album, ‘Lasso’ which she confirmed will see her venture into country, and is being made alongside both regular collaborator, producer and Bleachers frontman Jack Antonoff and country music maker Luke Laird.

She had explained the delay in its release recently, saying there was “a literal energetic pause” on the project, and speculated it was “going to take a turn” in a different direction while clarifying whether it would have a southern gothic sound.

Meanwhile, Lizzo recently made an appearance at Vice President Kamala Harris‘ rally and hit out at now-president Donald Trump‘s derogatory comments about Detroit.
