Stars line up for Lizzo’s headlining set at WMG’s pre-Grammys bash

January 24, 2020


What a difference a year makes.

Lizzo was a rising new artist on Atlantic’s roster at last year’s Warner Music Group’s Grammy bash. But this go-round, the superstar headlined the party, with A-listers like Naomi Campbell, Big Freedia, Wiz Khalifa, Rob Gronkowski, Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton waiting for the “Good as Hell” singer to hit the stage at the Hollywood Athletic Club on Thursday. Guests could smell Khalifa from a mile away as he entered smoking marijuana.

Nightlife connoisseur and photographer Jeremy Kost, known for his Polaroids of male model derrières, even dusted off his lens for the occasion. “I never bring my camera to events like this. It’s like a once-in-a-lifetime thing. I am not leaving this spot,” a giddy Kost said as he posted himself front and center by the stage.

Nigerian musician Burna Boy opened for the singer, and Page Six spotted Warner boss Tom Corson grooving to the performance. Lizzo hopped over to the event after performing at Spotify’s pre-Grammy bash in West Hollywood at the Lot. She thanked Warner for the work that had gone into her sudden rise. “[I’m grateful for] how hard y’all work and how hard y’all prayed and how much y’all made this motherf–king music save the goddamn day. So, thank y’all so much.”
