Lizzo faces threats and unfriendly signs at BottleRock Napa festival.
TL;DR Summary
Lizzo, the first Black woman to headline BottleRock Napa Valley, saw threatening signs before her performance, but refused to let the bigots win. She did not specify the signs, but a Napa Valley Register article from 2021 describes controversy around signs reading “CHOKE THE WOKE” and “AMERICA LOVE IT OR LEAVE IT” posted near the Napa Valley Expo. Lizzo's show featured a number of political moments, including a shout of “Drag is not a crime!” Despite the threats, Lizzo still seemed like she was having fun onstage and had the most crowded performance of the day.
