*Today, Lizzo finds herself eating her words today after accusing a Postmates driver of stealing the food she was delivering to the singer
The incident went down on Monday and resulted in the hefty entertainer going off on the service worker with a Twitter tirade. Now she’s apologizing, but it may not be enough.
In a since-deleted tweet, Lizzo, 31, wrote:
“Hey @Postmates this girl Tiffany W. stole my food. she lucky I don’t fight no more.”

Lizzo didn’t stop there. She also tweeted Tiffany’s photo, which obviously was a bad move as it prompted some of her followers to turn on her for putting the driver on blast and into the spotlight which could bring danger to her from some a-hole fan.
“Jesus. This poor girl is going to get fired and then hunted down. Come on, Lizzo,” tweeted one user.
“So you’ve publicly shamed someone who works in the service industry… you’ve nearly a million twitter followers… and you’ve now DMd their employer who will likely sack the individual you shamed publicly after accusing her of theft when you don’t actually know what happened,” another Twitter follower said.
In the wake of the incident, the “Juice” singer posted this apology:
“I apologize for putting that girl on blast. I understand I have a large following and that there were so many variables that could’ve put her in danger. Imma really be more responsible with my use of social media and check my petty and my pride at the door.”
However, because of her hasty, un-thought out response, Lizzo is looking at a lawsuit from the driver, reports Sandra Rose.

Meanwhile, when contacted by MSN for comment, a Postmates spokesperson wrote:
“As soon as Lizzo reached out, we looked into the matter and quickly resolved the issue. We apologize to Lizzo for any inconvenience.”
Also, a source told Page Six that the delivery person waited the allotted five minutes at the drop-off location but wasn’t able to reach the singer, so she left.
