Lizzo makes rare comments about body image amid Ozempic rumours
Grammy winner Lizzo shares unfiltered thoughts regarding her body weight
American rapper Lizzo candidly revealed her thoughts about her weight loss journey and body image.
On Monday, August 5, in an interview with Women’s Health, the four-time Grammy Award winner mentioned that, she "now" feels confident about herself.
During the candid chat, she stated, “body positivity” has nothing to do by staying same.
However, it is the “radical act of daring to exist” in a society that limits your existence.
“I like how I look now. I still think I’m big. I’m still wearing plus-size clothing. I have the same rolls. I got the same belly, the same thighs – I think I’m just a smaller version,” she added.
The Truth Hurts hitmaker, who has been vocal about her weight loss journey since 2023 on social media also shared, self-acceptance requires immense courage and strength.
Regardless of all the whirlwind speculations about her weight loss, she said, she’ll still continue to cherish love herself.
Furthermore, she noted, “If I did all of this on Ozempic, if I did all this with surgery, I would be just as proud of myself, because this s*** is hard. Everyone who’s ever been in a bigger body in this current version of society knows that this sht ain’t easy. Existing isn’t easy.”
For the unversed, in January, 2025, Lizzo announced on her official Instagram account that she reached her "weight release goal" by losing 16% of her body fat.
What does Lizzo struggle with?
Due to her fame, Lizzo has struggled with severe mental health disorders such as depression and anxiety.
