As Lizzo’s own Amazon Prime reality TV series inches closer to release, she sat down with People on Wednesday (March 2) to discuss her status as a “body icon” and how her reign of body positivity ultimately led her to this moment.
“I think I have a really hot body!” she said. ” I’m a body icon, and I’m embracing that more and more every day. It may not be one person’s ideal body type just like, say, Kim Kardashian might not be someone’s ideal, but she’s a body icon and has created a modern-day beauty standard.
“And what I’m doing is stepping into my confidence and my power to create my own beauty standard. And one day that will just be the standard.”
The extensive sit-down with People comes as Watch Out for the Big Grrrls plans to drop on March 25. The eight-episode series focuses on Lizzo as she hunts down confident and talented women to become a part of her Big Grrrls touring squad. Ten promising contestants move into the Big Grrrls House where they must demonstrate their talents and prove they have the chops to join Lizzo on her world tour in May.
To aid in this search, the “Truth Hurts” singer is bringing along the legendary choreographer Tanisha Scott and Big Grrrls members Chawnta’ Marie Van, Shirlene Quigley and Grace Holden. Also joining in the odyssey is movement expert Rashida KhanBey Miller and Grammy-nominated R&B singer SZA.
Check out the trailer for Lizzo’s Watch Out for the Big Grrrls below.
A Buffalo Icon maybe or the new symbol for the”Wide Load” signs on the back of tractor trailers.
I’m always imagining getting sharted on by my goddess Lizzo
Why do you keep posting this. It’s nasty for one thing and secondly you’d die due to suffocating cuz we all know her fat ass can’t squat for very long. You’re sick. You need serious mental health.
Why do you keep on hating on my goddess Lizzo?? LOVE IS LOVE!!!! Black community = biggest supporters of the Democratic plantation and the most openly sexist, racist, fat phobic, and anti semitic. IRONIC MUCH?!?!
STFU, politics got nothing to do with this. That’s just a cop out excuse for the uneducated to use when they feel like they can’t win an argument. You do realize most of the people commenting about her are black as well, right. We don’t all share the same opinion. She’s unhealthy and mental unhappy,it’s obvious, that’s why she’s keeps doing things like this for attention so people like you can fawn all over her but I’m positive she wouldn’t give you the time of day because you’re not a popular attractive rich celebrity. She’s got a horrible attitude and her music career is at a stand still right now. She’s using the fat shaming to sell records but that’s getting old really fast and people are tired of it. She hasn’t showed any growth as a person or an artist. So if you want to fantasize about her so much, go ahead because in a little while you’ll be able to get with her when she becomes a regular person again after she loses all her money.
lizzo is fat, and blacks vote for who will give them the most free shiiit. democrats could tell you the sky is falling and you’d believe it. boom answered both for you pal.
And whites vote for conservative cousin f***** as long as they get to keep their guns and have gay sex with each other and complain about how everything is the other races fault.
Don’t you guys vote for the village idiot normally. That’s how your hierarchy. You’re not US Grant, you’re more like a UK Pound with that racism. You sure you’re not a bloody Englishman? Did someone put pebbles in your teacup.
what does she look like without the weight. you know those men who get with bbw but they will put them to work in the gym. the potential is golden.
She’s Diabeetus. She is the reason why people should exercise and take care of themselves. She’s the poster child for overweight health and mental issues. She’s also an example of how you’re not supposed to act as an responsible adult and/or celebrity.
I’d be scared to death to be trapped in an elevator with her because if she farts you’re pretty much dead. Nobody could survive with that much force and psi coming at you at once and the smell would destroy your lungs.
She happy, fuk it!! Don’t rain on her parade
Not when her rain is made out of diet Sprite. She gets no pass.
For herself, I agree. It’s the “body positivity” part—encouraging other obese people to be happy being obese—that’s a problem.
no bitttch your fat and disgusting. you will live to 55, no more than that. if before that itll be a benefit to young women everywhere who should know this is NOT how you are suppose to look. gross.
If you wanna be lazy and enjoy that type of dangerous lifestyle, overeating not exercising leads to diabetes. That’s fine but let’s not pretend it’s sexy or cool. It’s not. It’s an addition. Addiction is a disease. Honestly one of the most unattractive things in the world is a fat person “flaunting” because they’re too lazy to change their habits. Deep down Lizzo knows she hates who she sees in the mirror, nobody Strives to look like that
Women and their word salads lol. Everything is justifiable in their heads. Promoting being fat is not healthy. One of biggest killers is obesity in the west. Yet we try to make it acceptable.
Yeah after you were just crying and having a breakdown last year because people were telling you to put more clothing on because of your weight. She always has to hype herself up before an album.
Body Icon..stop it.
Soon her body type will be the standard??? ? Pretty sure the reason covid killed so many people is cause they all looked like her body type..
