Lizzo has had it with fat phobias criticizing her weight and constantly shaming her because of her thick body and her insistence on maintaining it instead of working to shred it.
After Lizzo‘s recent performance video went viral, some critics took to Twitter to question how Lizzo still had all that flesh if she could dance that much, and another responded that Lizzo might be addicted to fast food.
The 35-year-old chubby singer came across the comments, and she is livid. Lizzo claims she has no interest in losing weight or maintaining a chubby body, and her only wish is to live without being constantly insulted and dragged; hence, folks should let her be.
Well, Lizzo has over the years directed her brand toward motivating fat people to be confident instead of advising them to lose weight, and that has tainted her brand and forced many people to harshly call her out since obesity is one of the major killers in the US. So while Lizzo seemed to be over it and has threatened to quit music and live a low-key life with her partner on a farm if the bashing continues, folks do not seem to be giving up anytime soon, unless she makes an attempt to lose some pounds.

Lizzo is not trying to change her body; she’s trying to scroll social media without seeing disparaging comments about it.
Though that doesn’t seem like a hard ask, the Grammy winner, 35, often finds herself clapping back at trolls who use their small platforms to shame her for her weight.
Most recently, Lizzo went off on one specific hater who tweeted a video of her performing and wrote, “How is Lizzo THIS fat when she’s constantly moving this much on stage?! I wonder what she must be eating .”
“I JUST logged on [on this] app and this is the type of s–t I see about me on a daily basis,” the “Truth Hurts” singer replied Wednesday. “It’s really starting to make me hate the world.”
“Then someone in the comments said I eat ‘lots of fast food,’” she went on. “I LITERALLY STOPPED EATING FAST FOOD YEARS AGO.”
The Yitty shapewear line founder said she’s “tired of explaining” herself and “seeing [her] name in some bulls–t.”
In response to someone who claimed that Lizzo doesn’t want to change her appearance because her size is “her brand,” the hitmaker fired back, “I’m not trying to BE fat. I’m not trying to BE smaller. I’m literally just trying to live and be healthy. This is what my body looks like even when I’m eating super clean and working out!”
She admitted she was “starting to get heated,” adding, “I HATE IT HERE.”
“The Love definitely do not outweigh the Hate on social media,” Lizzo lamented, going on to reveal just “how close” she is to “giving up on everyone and quitting and enjoying [her] money and man [Myke Wright] on a F–KING FARM.”
One fan encouraged the famed flutist to not search herself online, but she insisted she “literally” NEVER” does.
“This stuff just comes up on my [timeline] & my [for you pages],” she explained. “I swear I just wanna look at dance videos and science news and this s–t comes in every day.”
She then turned her sights to “the people who haven’t had an original thought or fresh air in years” and reiterated, “BEING FAT ISNT MY ‘BRAND.’ BEING FAT IS WHAT MY BODY LOOKS [LIKE]. THATS IT. THATS ALL.”
According to the “About Damn Time” rapper, her “brand” is actually “FEEL GOOD MUSIC,” “CHAMPIONING ALL PEOPLE” and “BLACK GIRL LIBERATION.”
Adele has been chubby all her life until her dramatic 2020 weight loss journey, but she admits that she is happier at her current weight than before. And studies have proven that fat people become happier and more confident after losing weight. Though the constant body shaming is irritating, maybe Lizzo should be more dedicated to losing weight than completely embracing her current state.
