In a follow-up video seemingly filmed right after the first,Lizzo wipes tears from her eyeswith her long acrylic nail-adorned fingers before sharing her thoughts. “Still processing that feeling of like… You never think when you’re making music you have an effect on people or you have an impact on people’s lives,” she said, choking up. “This is literally why I do it.”
“I’m so grateful that people take my music and do good things with it,” continued Lizzo. “It makes them move, it makes them dance, it makes them happy, it makes them feel confidence in themselves.”
She concluded: “I don’t care about all the other s—, the numbers. I don’t give a s—. That video is my Grammy, right there. That is my award, and I’m so grateful.”
“Thank you,” said Aria.
“And who do you love?” asked her mom.
“Lizzo!” replied Aria with an excited smile.
