Lizzo stopped a Glasgow concert to help a man propose to his boyfriend.
According to footage of the event uploaded to social media, Lizzo read the message "ASK MY BROTHER'S BOYFRIEND TO MARRY HIM" in bold text on a phone in the front-row. Halting the concert, Lizzo told the packed audience that they had a "special phone call."

"Hi," the four-time Grammy-award-winning artist greeted the man's boyfriend, Ryan, on FaceTime. After asking him a few questions — his name, how he was liking the concert (he replied, in "the chillest" way possible, that it was "amazing") — she turned the attention back to his boyfriend, Grant.
"Ryan, for the purposes that Lizzo is in front of us, will you marry me?" Grant asked as the crowd erupted into cheers.

Lizzo shouted. Ryan nodded as the crowd hollered. "Let me get a 'fucking yeah,'" Lizzo shouted, joking that "the man was too stunned to speak."
The sold-out concert was held at OVO Hydro stadium, which seats a maximum of 14,300 spectators. After the newly-engaged man got his phone back, he lifted it to show his fiance the ocean of cheering people.
"This is a celebration," Lizzo said before launching into her hit "Good as Hell."

It's not the first time Lizzo has made headlines for going above and beyond for a fan. In November 2022, author Aurielle Marie asked Lizzo over TikTok to borrow a dress for an upcoming Out Magazine event, saying she wanted a look that was "big bitch and red carpet ready." Lizzo mailed her the dress she wore to the 2019 AMAs just in time for her flight and sent a seamstress to her hotel to do a fitting before the event.
At the time, Lizzo tweeted a response to Marie's giddy videos, telling her she looked "beautiful" in the dress: "It's easy to be kind."
Lizzo did not immediately respond to Insider's request for comment about the proposal.
