Lizzo clarified her recent comments about quitting, reassuring fans that she is not leaving music or social media. In a video posted on Instagram, the singer explained that when she says 'I quit,' she means she is quitting giving negative energy attention. Last week, Lizzo sparked speculation with a social media post expressing frustration with negative criticism she receives both online and in her personal life.
During her clarification, Lizzo emphasized her commitment to making music and connecting with people, stating that she finds joy in these aspects of her life. She acknowledged the prevalence of negative voices and encouraged others to stand up against negativity. Lizzo expressed her desire to inspire and motivate others to prioritize self-respect and not let negative comments or people dictate their lives.
In her previous post, Lizzo mentioned feeling targeted by false narratives and being subjected to ridicule based on her appearance. Despite facing challenges, she reiterated her goal of spreading happiness through her music and contributing positively to the world.
The recent exchange regarding quitting or not quitting follows criticism from attorneys representing Lizzo's former dancers. The attorneys condemned Lizzo's performance at a fundraiser for President Joe Biden, citing ongoing legal disputes between the singer and the dancers. The dancers had filed a lawsuit against Lizzo last year, alleging sexual harassment and workplace issues. Lizzo has denied the allegations, and the legal proceedings are currently on hold pending an appeal.
