Mirror, mirror on the wall, don’t say it ‘cause Lizzo knows she’s cute.
The “Good As Hell” singer posted a video on TikTok Sept. 18 displaying a noticeably more trim figure. In the post, she was seen stepping away from the camera in a black two-piece before the clip cut to her in a gray bodysuit that put her weight loss on full display.
The Grammy winner completed the video with a TikTok sound featuring audio of Nicki Minaj saying, “The fact that you would even discuss my looks is insane. I’m a bad b---h, always been a bad b---h.”
But the 36-year-old hasn’t changed her body-positive mantra. In the caption of the post, she wrote, “Fine both ways.”
In a second TikTok post, Lizzo continued to flaunt her figure, pairing the bodysuit with black leather pants and black lace-up boots as she posed for the camera.
The updates come as the hitmaker—whose last full-length album, Special, was released in July 2022—takes some time to focus on self-care. In an Instagram post shared in August, she told fans, “I’m taking a gap year & protecting my peace.”
Last year, the “Truth Hurts” singer was hit with a lawsuit from three former backup dancers who accused her of creating a “hostile, abusive work environment” and weight shaming them during their time working for her. Lizzo denied the allegations in an Instagram statement, writing in part, “Sometimes I have to make hard decisions but it's never my intention to make anyone feel uncomfortable or like they aren't valued as an important part of the team.”
Then in March, Lizzo declared her intention to “quit” amid continued criticism, but explained days later that she wasn’t quitting the music industry.
“I just need to clarify when I say, ‘I quit,’ I mean I quit giving any negative energy attention,” she said in an Instagram post Apr. 2. “What I'm not going to quit, is the joy of my life, which is making music, which is connecting to people—because I know I'm not alone.”

Taking a Step Back
Lizzo has shared that she's been in on "intentional weight release journey" since 2023.
She had also faced a lawsuit that year, filed by several of her former backup dancers who accused her of creating a "hostile, abusive work environment" and weight-shaming, accusations she vehemently denied.
"With passion comes hard work and high standards," she wrote on Instagram. "Sometimes I have to make hard decisions but it's never my intention to make anyone feel uncomfortable or like they aren't valued as an important part of the team."
"I know what it feels like to be body shamed on a daily basis, she continued, "and would absolutely never criticize or terminate an employee because of their weight."
In between albums at the time, the "About Damn Time" artist announced in August 2024 that she was taking "a gap year & protecting my peace."
Learning How to Love Me
Lizzo admittedly has her ups and downs when it comes to her body.
"I'm not going to lie and say I love my body every day," she told The New York Times in April 2024. "The bottom line is, the way you feel about your body changes every single day. There are some days I adore my body, and others when I don't feel completely positive."
Looking Good as Hell No Matter What
In a Sept. 18, 2024, TikTok, Lizzo posted her own before and after, showing herself in a black two-piece before the video cut to her in a gray bodysuit.
As she captioned the clip, "Fine both ways."
Dust Your Shoulders Off, Keep It Moving
"When you finally get Ozempic allegations after 5 months of weight training and calorie deficit," Lizzo quipped via Instagram Sept. 20.
That Power Looks So Good on Her
The Grammy winner stepped out for lunch at Nobu Sept. 27 wearing a sheer black and white dress by Jean Paul Gaultier with a black bodysuit. She topped the look with a leather trenchcoat draped on her shoulders, large silver hoop earrings and black sunglasses.
Nobody’s Perfect
"I overate yesterday, and I'm feeling really bad about it," she shared in a Sept. 30, 2024, TikTok while detailing the ups and downs of her journey. "I'm trying to remind myself that my body needs that nourishment and if my body deserves comfort then my brain deserves comfort too."
She’s Her Own Inspiration
The singer has been all about TikTok fitspo, including one that explained how she pushes through workouts.
"I was doing Stairmaster today, and I was doing a higher level than normal," the sweat-drenched star explained in October 2024, noting that in order to avoid quitting early, she dropped down to a lower speed. "Sometimes when you want to give up, it's really just because you've been pushing yourself too hard. Don't give up, just take it easier on yourself."
Goooooal!!
"I did it," Lizzo shared on Instagram Jan. 25, 2025. "Today when I stepped on my scale, I reached my weight release goal. I haven’t seen this number since 2014! Let this be a reminder you can do anything you put your mind to. Time for new goals!"

Massaging the Numbers
On July 3, 2025, Lizzo shared a before-and-after from her first lymphatic massage with Flavia Lanini vs. her latest.
She credited the treatment, which targets specific areas to move excess fluid away from tissues and toward lymph vessels and nodes to flush out toxins, along with wood therapy, training three times a week, pickleball, dancing, drinking water, consuming less sugar and more protein, a monthly detox and various other lifestyle adjustments for her health transformation.
