The “About Damn Time” singer-songwriter took to Instagram to post a snippet from her concert, issuing a “public service announcement” to her fans. Lizzo implored them to stop bringing photos of Chris to her concerts and replace them with pics of her real man, Myke.
“OK, so this is a little backstory. Literally, a couple shows ago — I think it was the last show I just played, somebody had a big-*ss cutout of Chris Evans’ face,” Lizzo said onstage at a recent show.
“I seen it, and I said, ‘Alright, public service announcement — Chris Evans is not my man,” continued the global super star. “My man is [Myke Wright], and he’s fine as hell. And I’mma need you to go to the same printer and print my man’s face out and bring it to my show, ’cause I want to see his fine-*ss face when I’m on stage.”
Lizzo paused mid-performance to explain to her audience that Chris Evans is “not [her] man” after fans at a previous concert brought large cutouts of him to her show.

The video then reveals a clip of two fans holding large posters of Myke’s face during her concert in the Windy City on Wednesday. “And look who’s here,” the Grammy winner said with a giggle. “Thank you for doing this.”
She then requested that the fans toting the signs take a selfie with her and asked, “Can I have one? For scientific purposes only.”
Lizzo signed one of the two photos of Wright and took the other home with her as she lamented about how much she missed her comedian bae.
Back in April 2021, the pop star shared a Tik Tok video explaining that she drunkenly shot her shot at Chris in the DMs. She quipped, “Don’t drink and DM, kids…. for legal purposes, this is a joke,” in the caption.
The singer kept the jokes coming as she posted she was expecting the actor’s baby on the app a few months later. Then the 41-year-old responded to her.
“Hi! Just heard about our little bundle of joy my mother will be so happy lol,” he DMed, adding: “(Just promise me no gender reveal parties lol)”
“OMG YALL— HE SAW THE BABY BUMP! WE DID IT!” she wrote in caption of the reposted video. “NOW YALL GOTTA NAME LIL MERICA!!!!! WHAT YALL BOUTA NAME MY BABY ?! 🤰🏾🇺🇸.”
