Lizzo brought a group of drag queens onstage during a Tennessee tour stop in response to the state's anti-drag legislation
In the video shared on her Instagram page, Lizzo leads the drag performers to the front of the stage. Lizzo sports a sparkly emerald green dress and takes a bow while the drag queens dance around her. The video ends with her encouraging the audience to "support your drag entertainers."
"THANK YOU TO THESE BEAUTIFUL DRAG QUEENS FOR SHOWING THEIR PRIDE IN TENNESSEE," the singer captioned the post.
Some of the drag queens who appeared onstage were former "RuPaul's Drag Race" contestants: Aquaria, Asia O'Hara, Kandy Muse, and Vanessa Vanjie Mateo.
Lizzo's decision to feature drag performers comes after the passing of controversial legislation involving drag performances.

taught my youngest daughter her worth as a "big girl" in a way that I, as her mother, could not. She still shines.

This is what republicans find acceptable to display to children in public. Special Kilts
A national, tough guy organization, (Proud Boys), had several members print an obscene political message on their butt cheeks to proudly display in public. They bought and wore kilts for easiest display. To combine irony, satire, and sarcasm, the kilts were identifiable as coming from a LGBTQ-friendly company.
Oops! That's probably not the message they intended to convey.
