Lizzo announces partnership with Amazon to make telly projects
By Chris Cooke | Published on Friday 7 August 2020
Lizzo has announced a deal with Amazon which will see her create various TV projects that will then premiere via the Amazon Prime video service. So, look out for the Prime premieres all you Lizzo fans.
“Lizzo is one of the most exciting, creative, joyful artists in the industry, and it is such a pleasure to announce this new deal with her”, says Head Of Amazon Studios, Jennifer Salke. “She has such a unique perspective and we’re so excited to hear her ideas for new content that our Prime Video customers are sure to love”.
Which kind of makes it sound like this deal’s been done before Lizzo has actually come up with any ideas for Prime-style telly shows. I hope those ideas turn out to be good.
It’ll be fine, I’m sure. Hopefully. It’s going to be fine, right? What do you mean this whole thing’s going to be a disaster? Have some faith, people! Maybe she could make an Ellen-style chat show where she makes everyone behind the scenes feel miserable. Sorry, I mean, where she has fun chats with her celebrity friends.
Maybe she could make a drama about a chat show host that makes everyone behind the scenes feel miserable while she has fun chats with her celebrity friends on screen. Hey, it could be about a chat show host that makes her celebrity friends feel miserable while having fun chats with her behind the scenes team.
Look at that, I just came up with three ideas for telly shows. And if I can do it, Lizzo will have it sorted, no problem.
“I’m so excited to partner with the amazing team at Amazon”, says she. “Thank you to Jen Salke and the rest of the team for making this dream come true. I can’t wait to get started and share my vision with the world”.
