Ever since the four-time Grammy-winning hip-hop artist Lizzo was accused of harassment by multiple former employees, droves of people have spoken out about their own poor experiences with the pop star – including her former creative director Quinn Wilson, and the documentary filmmaker Sophia Allison.
Now, that list has expanded to include the New York City server @madisontayt_, who recently accused Lizzo on Twitter of being “rude to servers,” and a poor tipper.
“It was in the blind items for years,” she wrote, “but then I talked to someone it actually happened to. Guess you could say all the rumors were true.”
everything else about lizzo aside, being an nyc server has given me the inside scoop that she’s rude to servers and doesn’t tip

“I feel like this is maybe THE biggest litmus test for the character of a person,” @CanceledJeanne commented.
The tweet racked up almost 500 thousand views, and other people quickly responded with their own Lizzo experiences; including accounts from other servers, and a case of lost friendship.
minneapolis knows this already tbh

the woman who does my nails used to be a friend of lizzo before she was famous, like traveled together, hung out for days on end. after she got famous and it had been like a year since they spoke, they ran into each other on a set and lizzo pretended not to know her.

On the bright side, Madison did share a list of celebrities who were good for tipping properly. Turns out it’s not impossible to treat other people like real human beings, even after you make it big.
in case anyone is interested, here are a few people who, from my experience, are very nice: channing tatum, carlos santana, leighton meester, barry manilow, matthew gray gubler, dianna agron, darren criss, gaten matarazzo, maggie gyllenhaal, hoda kotb, adam devine, fran drescher

As @pjharpy commented, “If *I* was going to put out a song that says ‘all the rumors are true,’ then I would make sure I didn't have or do anything to start a rumor about.”
