It was her first time back in Minnesota post-lockdown. It was her first live gig since the pandemic. Tears streamed and emotions ran high throughout the 90-minute lovefest of a performance, one that reiterated Lizzo isn't just a major musical talent but also now something of a much-needed self-help guru.
'I'm crying, 'cuz I love you,' the 33-year-old singer/rapper bellowed with discernible intensity. The most truthful and telling moment during Lizzo's spirited Treasure Island Casino Amphitheater concert on Saturday night, however, came when the former Minnesotan delivered the title track of the album that turned her into a pop-culture phenomenon. She played around with the truth in the opening song 'Rumors.' She ended her set pre-encore dissing all the men who lie in 'Truth Hurts.'
