This is not the first time I have encountered the singer. As she sings in “Scuse Me”: “I don’t need a crown to know that I’m a queen.” For Lizzo, this was not necessarily in our national script for a Black woman it is never a given. She looks even more youthful than her 32 years, with her hair in two buns, reminding me of another princess, the fictional Leia from Star Wars. When a window of time finally opens, she settles in before the Zoom camera dressed casually, her sweater falling off her shoulders. She has been on vocal rest in her home in Los Angeles, while I’m mostly isolated in my house on the East Coast. IN OUR NEW WORLD, where travel is no longer advisable and social distancing mandatory, it has been a bit hard to connect with Lizzo.
