Real Housewife Kathy Hilton is getting dragged all over Twitter for this comment about Lizzo
A comment from Kathy Hilton on Watch What Happens Live last night has people on Twitter calling shade.During a segment aptly called “Will!
Kathy! Know Them!?”, Hilton was shown a picture of pop megastar, Lizzo.Her response? “I feel like I do. Precious?”Precious, as in the abused, partially literate, fictional character portrayed by Gabourey Sidibe in the 2009 film.Related: ‘Real Housewives’ star Luann reportedly kicked out of gay bar after telling patrons “f–k you”Sidibe and Lizzo bear no resemblance past being plus-sized Black women — not that Hilton even offered up the name of the actress.Instead, she opted for the character name that any big Black girl who was in school in 2009 can tell you was used derogatorily.Many folks didn’t take kindly to this comment:Now, I know Kathy Hilton doesn’t know much, but how the hell did she manage to confuse Lizzo with Gabourey Sidibe?
That certainly plays into the “we all look alike to them” trope.— Shar Jossell (@SharSaysSo) August 11, 2022Kathy Hilton damn well know Lizzo ain’t Precious, a FICTIONAL character.
That’s mad disrespectful, racist, and fatphobic. https://t.co/XNeYXjJmov— befunie bapteest (@StorySorcery) August 11, 2022KATHY HILTON JUST CALLED LIZZO “PRECIOUS.” SHE NEEDS HER ASS WHOOPED. #WWHL— Taylor. (@HolaTeeLane) August 11, 2022If Kathy Hilton thought Lizzo was Precious (a fictional character from a movie which was adapted from a book by the same name) then she’s either: 1.
