MINNEAPOLIS — "Lizzo's Watch Out for the Big Grrrls" spends time with superstar Lizzo as she breaks in a new troupe of backup dancers, culminating in last September's show at Treasure Island Casino.
But that climactic concert wasn't in the original plans.
The eight-part series, streaming Friday on Amazon Prime Video, is largely about preparations for a headlining gig at the Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival, billed as Lizzo's first major performance in nearly two years. But when Hurricane Ida forced the cancellation of the fest at the last minute, producers made the decision to shoot the follow-up concert in the Twin Cities, where the Grammy-winning artist's career really took off.
