Diddy clarifies the reason he stopped Lizzo from twerking
Amid the backlash, Diddy took to his Instagram page to clarify the reason he stopped Lizzo from dancing.
“There’s one thing I want to make clear,” he said. “My queen, my sister, Lizzo. When I stopped the music, it was ‘cause it had a lot of curses in there. Not ’cause she was twerking. She’s one of the best twerkers in the world, okay? ”

You are allowed to twerk on Easter, there was a lot of cursing in the record and I don’t need child services knocking on my door right now. So, that’s why I stopped the record. Lizzo we love you, and everybody stop looking for the negative! Look for the positive. ”
