Earlier this year, Beyonce stood by Lizzo when the latter was slapped with a sexual harassment lawsuit by three of her ex-backup dancers. And indicating that their loyalty runs in both directions, Lizzo made sure to be part of the cavalcade of celebrities who glammed up for Beyonce's big night. On the town: Lizzo made her presence felt at Saturday night's premiere of the new concert film Renaissance: A Film by Beyoncé in Beverly Hills In order to maintain an aura of secrecy around the event, the invited guests were not even told where the premiere would be until 24 hours before. The dress code provided for the 'chrome carpet' was cryptically described as 'cozy opulence,' according to a report in Variety . Beyonce's new concert film is a recording of her Renaissance World Tour, which she named after her smash hit 2022 album of the same name. The movie will bow in theaters this coming Friday on World AIDS Day - a touching detail inasmuch as the Renaissance album was dedicated to Beyonce's gay cousin Jonny whom she lost to AIDS-related sickness. In early September, Lizzo was seen supporting Beyonce during her Renaissance tour, attending a California concert that happened to coincide with Beyonce's birthday. It proves all is well between the two stars after there was confusion the previous month when Beyoncé removed Lizzo's name from her Break My Soul remix when accusations of sexual harassment against her came to light. A lawsuit for sexual harassment was recently launched against Lizzo , 35, by three of her former backup dancers. At a number of her shows Beyoncé confirmed she was sticking with the embattled rapper and singer by continuing to include her name in a list of inspiring women in the remix.

The Boston show that missed out on Lizzo's name was also unusual, as Beyoncé repeated Erykah Badu's name multiple times , seemingly to clarify that she was a major inspiration after Badu accused the singer of ripping off her style on her current tour. Lizzo posed in a silver bodycon dress with Chris Rock as they enjoyed the concert. During a concert on August 15 in Atlanta 41-year-old hitmaker Beyoncé went even further, though, by shouting, 'I love you, Lizzo!' in the middle of the line as she returned her name to the Break My Soul remix. In a short clip from the concert circulating on social media, Beyoncé could be seen running through her list of inspiring Black women when she gets to Lizzo's name and said it aloud. Then she added, 'I love you, Lizzo!' which appeared to get some scattered applause from the crowd near where the video was shot. At the start of August Tina Lawson downplayed her superstar daughter Beyonce 's omission of Lizzo's name during Break My Soul shout-outs during Boston show. The 69-year-old mother of Beyonce and Solange Knowles took to Instagram to comment on an item posted by the Jasmine BRAND that detailed the purported snub, which comes as Lizzo faces a lawsuit alleging sexual harassment and a toxic workplace from three former dancers.
