Lizzo shows off curves in tiny string bikini as she blasts body-shamers in defiant post

Lizzo showed off her curves in a tiny string bikini as she blasted body-shamers in a defiant post.

The pop sensation looked incredible as she showcased her stunning curves in a marbled black wrap-around bikini as she holidayed in a tropical-looking location.

But her message in the video she posted was one of self-love and empowerment as she shared her sentiments about body positivity against ‘tired’ comments from trolls.

Lizzo told fans in the short clip: “The discourse around bodies is officially tired. I have seen comments going, ‘Oh my gosh I liked you when you were thick, why did you lose weight?

She said: "I'm gonna do whatever I want with this body" (@lizzobeeating/Instagram)

“To, ‘Oh my gosh, why did you get a BBL, I liked your body before!’ to, ‘Oh my gosh, you are so big, bleh, you should lose weight for your health…’

“To, ‘Oh my gosh you’re so little you should get a** or t*tties or something!’ to, ‘Oh my gosh’, why did she get all that work done, it’s too much work!’”

Clearly driven in her attempts to stop the negative conversation around body image, the star continued: “Are we okay? Do you see the delusion? Do we realise that artists are not here to fit into your beauty standards?"

She said: “Artists are here to make art, and this body is art. I’m gonna do whatever I want with this body,” she said unapologetically as she turned around and slapped her behind.

“I wish that comments cost money so we could see how much time we are f***ing wasting on the wrong thing. Can we leave that s*** back there please?”

Lizzo captioned the video: “If we had to pay money for every comment on social media maybe people would think before they type.”

Onlookers quickly flocked to the comments in support of the star, with record producer Mike Sabbath writing: “Love you!!! Yes”, and former Fifth Harmony star Lauren Jauregui commenting: “FACTS”.

Meanwhile, another fan wrote: “Yes! All of this! I have stage 4 breast cancer and please believe me when I say, life is too short to waste on worrying about body image.

“Please stop listening to all the negative comments and get out there and live your life! You are so much more than your dress size!”

Someone else added: “It’s the are we okay!!! Because ARE WE??? I’m sick of it too!!!”
