Lizzo warns fans ‘don’t drink and DM’ as she shoots her shot with Avengers star Chris Evans – and gets a reply
Lizzo might have initially regretted her DM to Avengers star Chris Evans, but maybe not so much any more after she actually got a reply.
The singer had warned her fans on TikTok ‘don’t drink and DM’ revealing the friendly message she slipped to Chris on Instagram after maybe having a few.
Sure Lizzo, blame it on the Juice.
She posted: ‘Don’t drink and DM, kids….for legal porpoises this is a joke.’
With her DM to Chris in the background, Lizzo lip synced (perfectly, we might add) to a sound by Tatayanna Mitchell, saying: ‘The reason I’m upset about this one is because I know I’m not gonna be able to marry him, and honestly it hurts me to the core because damn, papi, he a rare breed. No comparing.’
The star, real name Melissa Jefferson, had sent emoji of wind blowing, a man jumping and a basketball, suggesting she was ‘shooting her shot’ (meaning being brave and showing interest in someone you like) with the actor.
She looked nervous at the end of the video, revealing she might end up regretting her recklessness.
However it actually paid off as she revealed in a follow up post that the Captain America actor had followed her on Instagram, which she circled – multiple times -in red.
More importantly though Chris had a) actually replied to her DM and b) was a total sweetheart about it.
Seeing the funny side, he told her: ‘No shame in a drunk DM…god knows I’ve done worse on this app.’ We’re guessing he’s referring to that rude photo leak from last year.
The Juice singer reacted to his response the way any one would – by completely freaking out and screaming.
