Lizzo Calls Out Body Shamers After Weight Loss

When Lizzo posted a new photo of herself on social media, some people couldn't resist commenting on her weight loss. But instead of just complimenting her, some fans started questioning whether she used medication or drugs to achieve her new figure. Lizzo didn't take these comments lying down. One user wrote, "Did she use ozempic or did she snort coke?" and Lizzo responded with a simple "Whyyyy do u follow me?" and four crying face emojis. She then shared a screenshot of the exchange on her own post, writing, "oZeMpIc oR cOkE?" - a fan. This might seem like a normal response to a mean comment, but Lizzo was making a bigger point.

Lizzo is known for being confident and unapologetic about her body, and this response was no exception. She was calling out body shamers and saying that her hard work and dedication to her fitness journey shouldn't be questioned. She included a selfie video of herself mouthing the viral TikTok sound bite "It's like a reward," which was originally spoken by Christoph Waltz's character in the film Django Unchained. The caption read, "When you finally get ozempic allegations after 5 months of weight training and calorie deficit."
