Music News: Lizzo Addresses Fat-Shamers

Lizzo has responded to online fat-shamers.

The Grammy-winning artist posted on her official Instagram page to address critics who were mocking her body.

“Today I saw a fat joke about me â€" in 2025 â€" and it was viral,” she wrote in the caption of a photo of herself in a yellow-and-black snakeskin bikini.

“It was a dumb joke, and they were just laughing at me because I’m fat… Let me be a reminder to everyone to never let anyone shame you for what you choose to do with your body. Because when you’re big, they talk s**t; when you’re small, they talk s**t. Your body will never be good enough for them because it’s not for them. It’s for you.”

The About Damn Time singer has faced body-shaming trolls throughout her mainstream pop career.

“If I get a BBL, mind ur business. If I lose 100lbs, mind ur business. If I gain every pound back and then some… mind ur f**king business,” she concluded her caption.

“Anyways, my fat ass stays living with a paid-off mortgage in y’all b**ches heads.”

Lizzo’s response to her trolls comes shortly after she made headlines with a Substack essay titled Cancel Me (Again): A ‘Cancelled’ Woman’s Take on Why Everyone Should Get Cancelled at Least Once.

“Not everybody liked my most recent essay, and that’s exactly why I wrote it,” she shared in a follow-up post.

“I deserve to be able to express myself like everyone else. I’m human, I’ve earned the right to be wrong, to be prickly and unlikable sometimes. It’s liberating for a recovering chronic people-pleaser like me. Thank you for your comments and criticisms. I welcome it all.”
