Lizzo Assists Fan With Marriage Proposal at Glasgow Gig
Lizzo’s Glasgow concert took an epic turn for a couple on March 8, when the singer FaceTimed a fan’s boyfriend and helped him with his marriage proposal.
The precious moment was recorded by Scott McLachlan. In the video, Lizzo picks up the phone and starts talking to someone she calls “the chillest person in the world” after the man calmly expresses his amazement.
Lizzo then tells the man, who gives his name as Ryan, that his boyfriend Grant “has a question he wants to ask you.”
“Ryan,” Grant is heard saying, “for the purposes that Lizzo is in front of us, will you marry me?”
Lizzo congratulated the couple after Ryan, who was “too stunned to speak,” she said, repeatedly nodded yes, as seen in the footage.
She had paused the concert after noticing Grant’s brother’s message to her, which read, “Ask my brother’s boyfriend to marry him.” Credit: Scott McLachlan via Storyful
