Lizzo has been caught up in a tornado of hate on several social media sites in the last few months. Even with her great talent and unflinching confidence, she has started to receive constant harassment, trolling, and criticism.
Undoubtedly, social media has expanded her fan base and increased her reach, but it has also subjected her to a flood of offensive remarks and unjustified criticism.
Lizzo feels like the negative comments she has received online are getting heavier and closer to overshadowing her love of music and art. She discussed the toll that persistent hostility has placed on her mental health and creative soul in an honest interview. “It’s disheartening to pour your heart and soul into your craft, only to be met with a wave of hatred and negativity,” she admitted. “I’m tired of constantly defending myself and my worth as an artist.”
Lizzo receives criticism for more than just her songs and live performances. Being a strong supporter of self-love and body positivity, she has frequently been at the forefront of conversations about body representation and image. While many applaud her message of empowerment, others have denigrated it and perpetuated negative stereotypes by using social media to hurl insults and fat-shaming remarks.

Lizzo has repeatedly had to withstand setbacks in her quest to remain optimistic and rise above the commotion. She is wondering where she fits in the music business and what her career would be like without the spotlight because of the constant onslaught of hate. “It’s exhausting to constantly fight against the tide of negativity,” she complained. “Sometimes, it feels like it would be easier to just walk away.”
Fans and supporters have rallied around her to show her support as it should be!
