Right now, fans are praising Lizzo as she now redeemed herself as one who stands up for those who have been marginalized by other people. It is with this that she emphasized her message.
“As a fat black woman in America, I’ve had many hurtful words used against me so I overstand the power words can have (whether intentionally or in my case, unintentionally.”
As many may know, Lizzo has also come to endure a lot of public scrutiny for the way she dresses her body and what she wears as a big girl. However, the singer has made a point about loving her body regardless.
According to Entertainment Weekly, Lizzo released her song Grrrls from her sophomore album Special. But, this quickly gained a lot of negative attention.
