Lizzo is ready to tackle the new year with dialed-up confidence.
The “About Damn Time” singer, 36, took to Instagram on Sunday, January 5, to share two photos of herself dressed in a skimpy black bikini paired with a black shirt emblazoned with the words, “F— you.”
Lizzo captioned the carousel with a fierce mantra she’s committed to taking into this year. “2025 is the year of keeping the vibration on a higher frequency than what the world tries to lower it to,” she wrote. “Don’t subscribe to the bulls— just to make others feel comfortable 🤭 live truthfully and don’t hold back— it’s your world!”
While the first photo in the series captured the singer gazing sultrily into the camera while sipping on a coconut, the second shot presented a close-up of the coconut, etched with the script, “Case G3 Lizzo,” as she kept her face hidden behind the tropical fruit.
Lizzo is proud of her weight loss progress, which she denied was the result of using Ozempic. “When you finally get Ozempic allegations after 5 months of weight training and calorie deficit,” Lizzo, 36, wrote in a social media video on Friday, September 20. In the clip, Lizzo (real name Melissa Jefferson) flashed a closed-mouth […]
The social media post cements Lizzo’s self-confidence era as she continues to show off her figure online after shutting down Ozempic accusations.
During the early months of 2024, Lizzo’s weight loss journey was attributed by some online fans to GLP-1 drugs primarily prescribed for adults who struggle with obesity. The speculation ran rife despite Lizzo telling The New York Times during an interview published in April of last year that she had been, “methodical, losing weight very slowly.”
The online rumors led to Lizzo addressing them head on in September 2024. “When you finally get Ozempic allegations after 5 months of weight training and calorie deficit,” Lizzo wrote via social media at the time.
Lizzo stood up to the accusations just one month later by dressing up as Ozempic packaging for Halloween, revealing the costume via Instagram on October 26, 2024, and captioning it, “LizzOzempic dump.”
Lizzo’s epic shutdown was amplified by her choice to bedazzle the packaging with her name in capitalized block letters. Furthermore, a tape measure was fastened around her waist to indicate a slim-down, and she also carted around a fake slice of pizza as an accessory.
The truth doesn’t always have to hurt. Lizzo has dedicated herself to helping women accept and love their bodies in the same way that she does. From her efforts, she has delivered countless anthems and motivational quotes to keep her fans on the track toward better body positivity. “It definitely comes with time,” the Grammy […]
As for Lizzo’s latest post, fans were quick to show their support for the musician’s unwavering body confidence. One Instagram user wrote in the comments, “Now THIS is what protecting your peace looks like! 👏🏾👏🏾Now tag the maker of that shirt please! 😂,” while another wrote, “STRONG, CONFIDENT and ENOUGH.🔥🔥.”
One particularly supportive fan commented, “Weight loss doin its thang gurl keep it up! Proud of u!!!”
