About

Dropping Lizzo on Iran or Lizzo Bomb refers to a series of weight jokes and memes based on the idea of using singer Lizzo against Iran by dropping her out of an aircraft as a bomb-type weapon. The jokes gained popularity on Twitter and Instagram following the start of the 2020 Iranian-American Conflict in early January 2020, with Lizzo subsequently announcing taking a break from Twitter due to excessive trolling.

Origin

On January 3rd, 2020, Iranian general Qasem Soleimani was assassinated by the United States military, which prompted an influx of memes about World War III online. On the same day Twitter[1] user @BASEDSAVAGE_ made a joke about singer Lizzo's weight, suggesting that the US Government should consider dropping her on Iran as a bomb, with the tweet receiving over 22,900 retweets and 112,100 likes in one week (shown below).
