AceShowbiz - Lizzo, the pop superstar, ignited controversy on Thursday, November 7, 2024, after posting a video to Instagram showcasing her peculiar approach to writing. Just two days after sharing a photo with Vice President Kamala Harris, she posted a clip of herself penning a message that read, "Sending love to everyone in the world."
However, it wasn't her heartfelt sentiment that garnered attention; it was her unconventional way of holding the pen. Fans quickly took to social media platforms, both roasting and supporting her writing grip.
Critics voiced their disbelief and concerns, with one stating, "The teacher in me is like, what is going on with this pencil grip?" Another added, "Dude, that's the craziest method of holding a pen I've ever seen." Some fans expressed worry, as one commented, "Bruh, seeing you hold the pen like that gives me anxiety."
Despite the criticism, Lizzo received support from her followers. One fan shared, "Wait, oh my god, I grip the pen the same way! I was bullied throughout my entire time in school. And into adulthood. (Love to all.)" Another wrote, "Cutest lefty that I have ever seen."
Lizzo's pen-holding controversy follows her recent Halloween costume, which also stirred up a buzz. She painted her entire body red and wore a chest plate with exaggerated fake breasts and a blue wig. She captioned her Halloween posts with a link to a website selling a $350 eight-inch statue of her costume.
As the reactions to Lizzo's pen grip continue to surface, it's clear that her unique writing style has sparked a lively discussion among her fans and critics alike.
