WHAT REALLY HAPPENED

Lizzo's accusation of theft was unfounded. She had ordered the food delivered to a Boston hotel but neglected to give a room number. Tiffany spoke to the concierge but failed to make contact with the customer. She waited 10 minutes, then left.

"As soon as Lizzo reached out, we looked into the matter and quickly resolved the issue. We apologize to Lizzo for any inconvenience."
