Lizzo and Live Nation are partnering to pledge $1 million to Planned Parenthood and abortion funds in the wake of the Roe v. Wade reversal.
“I’m pledging $500k from my upcoming tour to Planned Parenthood. Live Nation agreed to match — to make it 1 MILLION dollars,” the “Grrrls” singer wrote on Twitter. She is one of the first celebrities to publicly announce such support.
However, after some abortion rights activists pointed out the benefits of donating locally — directly to abortion funds that are organizing in states and areas with more restrictive laws — the pop star course-corrected and added that the money will be split to them as well.
