Lizzo BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

In the last few days Lizzo has been everywhere from Instagram to industry headlines making noise with both her appearance and her voice. Earlier this week social media lit up after she posted a new collaboration with her Yitty activewear line promoting that fans can now shop it at Walmart. The video which saw Lizzo in green biker shorts and a fitted sports bra came right as she’s been showing off a noticeably slimmer figure. While supporters congratulated her on her weight loss achievements public reaction was mixed. Many longtime fans let her know they were disappointed she would partner with Walmart given ongoing criticism over the company’s stance on diversity equity and inclusion especially with President Trump’s administration currently cutting federal DEI programs. Despite the backlash Lizzo has not responded directly to those comments but has spoken openly in interviews about her changing body and self-acceptance. In a recent Women’s Health UK profile she made it clear that body positivity is about loving yourself at any size saying she likes how she looks but still considers herself plus size. She also repeated that she achieved her transformation through lifestyle changes—not Ozempic—addressing those rumors directly on TikTok and with That Grape Juice where she emphasized a focus on calorie deficit exercise and cutting alcohol instead of medication.

Adding to her string of public moments Lizzo and boyfriend Myke Wright stepped out for a rare appearance at the Vanity Fair Oscars party in Los Angeles. This marked their first major public outing since she reached her so-called weight release goal which she celebrated in January saying on Instagram that she hadn’t seen those numbers on the scale since 2014. Myke and Lizzo have kept their relationship mostly private but her interview with Howard Stern hinted at long-term commitment saying she’s not looking for anyone else in her life.

The past few months haven’t been all love and light however. Lizzo has continued facing legal battles as lawsuits by former dancers alleging harassment remain unresolved. After keeping a low profile for a stretch she’s begun releasing music again dropping Love in Real Life in February—her first new track in two years and the title song of her forthcoming album which draws on the influence of her late mentor Prince.

In classic Lizzo fashion she’s continued using her social media to push cultural conversations. She launched several witty TikToks including a freestyle aimed at American Eagle and Sydney Sweeney’s denim campaign controversies—“Lizzo’s got good jeans”—clarifying her unapologetic stance and calling out double standards in brand messaging. Instagram posts showcase her “radiating strength self-love and unapologetic confidence” according to E News and NewsFlipLive. The narrative surrounding her isn’t just about transformation but about her ongoing role in challenging norms around body image celebrity influence and what it means to take up space in the public eye.
