The singer filmed herself penning a message of love and support to fans who are reeling from Kamala Harris's election loss—but all anyone could focus on was her odd way of holding a pen.

Lizzo was roasted for the way she wrote with a pen after she took some time to check in with her fans with a special message.

The Instagram video of her handwriting the note was in response to the post-election blues after Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris lost to President-elect Donald Trump earlier last week.


The "Good as Hell" rapper's video showed a closeup of her left hand putting pen to paper, writing, "Sending love to everyone in the world. Love, Lizzo."

But the way she gripped the pen looked more like she was about the stab the blank sheet.

It was a thoughtful and genuine endeavor meant for dejected voters still processing the election results and fearing the immediate future.

Still, fans couldn't help pointing out the way Lizzo gripped the pen.

Aside from being a four-time Grammy Award winner and Time magazine's 2019 "Entertainer of the Year, " Lizzo is also known as an advocate for body positivity and for being open with fans about her mental health and depression.

In August, the 36-year-old posted a non-verbal Instagram video of her walking out onto a balcony at a hotel resort in her bathing suit and embracing the light rain.

In the caption, she wrote:

"I’m taking a gap year & protecting my peace🙏🏾"

Thanks for checking in with us after the election, Lizzo.

We love you too. 😘

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
