#Cardi B, not Harry Styles, will be on new song ‘Rumors’

From Lizzo’s lips to her fans’ ears. The “Juice” singer said fellow Atlantic Records rapper Cardi B — not Harry Styles — will be featured on her new single “Rumors.”

On Friday, Lizzo will debut her tune featuring the “Up” songstress. Lizzo, 33, dropped the news on Instagram alongside a piece of promo for the song.

” ‘RUMORS’ feat @iamcardib 🔥🤫🔥 THIS FRIDAY 8/13🤫🔥🤫🔥🤫🔥,” Lizzo wrote next to a photo of the two licking their bejeweled pointer fingers. “We really did that,” Cardi, 28, jokingly commented.

Over the weekend, the Houston native teased the new tune on TikTok. On Monday, Lizzo posted a FaceTime call between her and Cardi to announce their collab on Instagram. “Good morning, motherf–ker,” she says to the “Bodak Yellow” rapper in the video before giggling. “That’s who is featuring y’all. Period. It’s Harry Styles.” Before the song announcement, Lizzo’s comments section was saturated with guesses that the former British boyband star would be featured.

Styles, 27, and Lizzo have been friends for the last couple of years. They sparked a friendship in December 2019 when the “Watermelon Sugar” crooner covered Lizzo’s song “Juice.”

Styles then gushed in an interview with BBC Radio 1 that Lizzo is “exactly what you want an artist to be.” She responded at the time by reposting the clip on her Instagram Stories, writing, “This is so cute @harrystyles ily. You know what this means right . . .?” with a winking emoji, seemingly hinting at a collaboration.
