Lizzo is berating her detractors, telling them to stop focusing on her size, but rather focus on her talent. The “About Damn Time” singer admitted to Vanity Fair in her new cover story that while she has always been called fat, it was the insult that especially upset her. The hip hop star frequently gives the impression that it’s simple to keep removing obstacles for plus-size women and people of color, but in a recent interview, she emphasized how upsetting some of the racist and fatphobic remarks she encounters on a daily basis can be.
Celebrity singer and rapper Lizzo, full name Melissa Viviane Jefferson, is one of the world’s most recognized female artists. She has a chart-topping album, three Grammy awards, and an Emmy for her reality TV series Watch Out For The Big Grrrls. Her entire journey to fame may have been a labor of love and a never-ending endeavor, but it was also paved with a great deal of self-doubt and hard life lessons.
The rapper spoke up in a cover story for Vanity Fair that was released on Tuesday, addressing, in particular, a video she filmed in August of last year, soon after the release of her “Rumors” collaboration with Cardi B. She pointed out a specific insult that had shamed her because of her race and weight in the 13-minute, since-deleted video. However, she never made explicit what the commenter had stated, and a year later, she still claims she will not.

The singer stated that people have been calling her fat all her life, but that was the first time she saw an insult of how she looked, who she was and her music rolled into one, and it truly wounded her. When a person says it, it spreads like a virus, she said. Because she did not want her detractors to know what “truly hurt” her, the “2 Be Loved” singer declined to recite the remark.
As a result of recent remarks made about the celebrity by Kanye West on Tucker Carlson’s Fox News programme, Lizzo unintentionally coincided with a revived public obsession with her physique. She then addressed criticisms she received directly regarding her weight. The famed flutist most recently appeared to shut down Kanye West who made fat-phobic comments about her during his interview last week.
