Lizzosharing an alarming Instagram post, in which she declared she ‘quit’ due to nonstop criticism.
After admitting that she was ‘tired of getting dragged by everyone’ over her looks, the 35-year-old superstar jumped on social media to clarify what she meant by saying she ‘quit.’
In her latest video, the four-time Grammy winner appeared on camera as she told fans that she actually meant that she ‘quit giving any negative energy attention.’
‘What I’m not going to quit is the joy of my life, which is making music, which is connecting to people, ’cause I know I’m not alone,’ the performer (born Melissa Viviane Jefferson) ᴀssured fans.
She continued: ‘In no way, shape or form, am I the only person, who is experiencing that negative voice that seems to be louder than the positive.’
The Truth Hurts hitmaker went on to say that if she gave even just ‘one person the inspiration or motivation to stand up for themselves’ against negative people or comments than she was doing ‘more than’ she ‘could have hoped for.’
‘With that being said, I’m going to keep moving forward. I’m going to keep being me. Once again, I just wanted to say thank you. The love I have received means more than you know,’ she concluded.
Earlier this week, she told her followers that she was ‘getting tired of putting up with being dragged by everyone in my life and on the internet.’
‘All I want is to make music and make people happy and help the world be a little better than how I found it,’ she wrote in a statement. ”But I’m starting to feel like the world doesn’t want me in it.’
Lizzo went on to vent that it was frustrating to ‘constantly’ be ‘up against lies’ being told about her ‘for clout & views’ and ‘being the ʙuтт of the joke every single time because’ of her appearance.
‘My character being picked apart by people who don’t know me and disrespecting my name,’ she concluded. ‘I didn’t sign up for this s**t. I quit.’
Social media users jumped to the comment to share their thoughts on the shock move, with one fan penning, ‘You better not!!!!’
