Lizzo BioSnap a weekly updated Biography. Lizzo has been making major waves this past week, both on the public stage and behind the scenes. On September 12, she turned heads at New York Fashion Week, sitting front row next to Oprah Winfrey, Whoopi Goldberg, and Gayle King at the Christian Siriano runway show. Wearing a sheer corset bodysuit paired with a sleek black chiffon wrap skirt and strappy heels, she confidently showcased her recent weight loss, marking a new era in her public image. Lizzo’s physical transformation—highlighted in a July Women’s Health cover interview—has grabbed headlines all summer, but she’s been quick to shut down rumors about using medications like Ozempic, stating that her changes come from dedicated fitness, diet adjustments, and a personal chef.
