Lizzo Declares Her First No. 1 Song a Win for 'Anybody Who Ever Felt Like They Voice Wasn't Heard'

"You know how long it took me to fall in love with this body? My butt was my least favorite thing about myself. And I learned to love it. And now it's the thing everybody can't stop talking about ... Be you. Do you. Don't let anybody steal your joy." <a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/video/lizzo-responds-to-criticism-over-revealing-lakers-game-outfit-i-stay-in-my-own-positive-bubble/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" data-ylk="slk:— on CBS This Morning;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas" class="link ">— on <em>CBS This Morning</em></a>

“The body-positive movement is the body-positive movement, and we high five. We’re parallel. But my movement is my movement. When all the dust has settled on the groundbreaking-ness, I’m going to still be doing this. I’m not going to suddenly change. I’m going to still be telling my life story through music. And if that’s body-positive to you, amen. That’s feminist to you, amen. If that’s pro-black to you, amen. Because ma’am, I’m all of those things.” <i><a href="https://www.allure.com/story/lizzo-cover-interview-2019" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" data-ylk="slk:— Allure;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas" class="link ">— Allure</a></i>

“I didn’t have enough women to look up to and they weren’t given enough space in the industry to carve out a lane for big girls that are brown and black and want to sing and dance without getting shit talked and body shamed. I’m out here and I set my mind to it. I want to be a sex symbol and music goddess and I’m out here trying to make that happen for myself. I’m here for the fantasy but I want to be a part of that fantasy. I’m just as fine as those girls.” <i><a href="https://www.vogue.co.uk/article/lizzo-singer-interview-2019" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" data-ylk="slk:— Vogue;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas" class="link ">— Vogue</a></i>

"I’m tired of the bullsh—. And I don’t have to know your story to know that you’re tired of the bullsh— too. It’s so hard trying to love yourself in a world that doesn’t love you back, am I right? So I just want to take this opportunity to feel good as hell. Because you deserve to feel good as hell. <em>We </em>deserve to feel good as hell." <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=135&v=Uo0RK_olDb4&feature=emb_logo" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" data-ylk="slk:— 2019 MTV Video Music Awards;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas" class="link ">— 2019 MTV Video Music Awards</a>
