The ‘Truth Hurts’ hitmaker is making quite the fuss by proclaiming Janet Jackson to be the Queen of Pop amid social media debate, which seemingly has Madonna fans fuming.
Lizzo’s assertion was revealed on Sunday 29th Aug., after Justin Bieber was dubbed “Prince of Pop” by his fans following a landmark Spotify record, to which the femcee had no objections, as she released a full list of her idols and their rankings, as seen below.

Following Lizzo’s tweet, Madonna fans angrily stormed her timeline, claiming the pop icon has long claimed that title, following a successful career in that genre and others, which makes her assertion inaccurate.

Just a handful of the scholarly books written on Madonna’s cultural impact (not biographies!)
Throughout the decades there was just one woman who they would all wonder “What will she do next?” “How is she going to top herself?” #QueenOfPop pic.twitter.com/fkFE7DnYL0

it's hard to chose just one pic or even just four favorite pics from 🏳️🌈👑Madonna's 2021 vast catalog. She's been on her A game all year serving week after week and it's only August. #Madonna #Queen #queenofpop pic.twitter.com/2M4nS22bOA

The femcee upon seeing the social media backlash tweeted “Ruhroh” as Janet Jackson fans also took to the platform to share their sentiments on the topic.

I loved Janet Jackson growing up… I always felt that she was the closest thing to Michael Jackson when it came to honest choreography of his moves; also loving her brother while others either celebrated or chastised him for his brilliance. #QueenofPop

It should be noted that neither Popstar has been officially crowned with the title, and Lizzo’s statements were solely hers, making everyone else’s thoughts theirs as well.
