Lizzo’s unabashed confidence surrounding her body has made her a target on social media. But the Grammy Award-winning artist is typically able to brush it off and often isn’t shy to confront the negative comments head-on. On Saturday (June 4), the 34-year-old evidently had enough and addressed men who use her stage name as an insult to other women.
While Lizzo didn’t specify exactly what the messages said, she did note, “I’m not even going to say them, to give them power.” She added, “People saying shit about me that just doesn’t even make sense. It’s fat-phobic, and it’s racist and it’s hurtful. If you don’t like my music, cool. If you don’t like ‘Rumors’ the song, cool. But a lot of people don’t like me because of the way I look.”
