Lizzo Channels Pamela Anderson in Iconic Red Swimsuit Amid Ozempic Confessions

LIZZO UNLEASHES HER INNER BAYWATCH ICON IN RED SWIMSUIT, BUT FANS TURN ON HER OVER OZEMPIC ADMISSION

The queen of self-love and body positivity, Lizzo, has left her fans divided after she confessed to using the weight loss medication Ozempic as part of her transformation. The 37-year-old singer, known for her empowering anthems and unapologetic attitude, has been open about her journey to a slimmer figure, but her admission has sparked fierce online reaction.

Lizzo's latest social media post over the weekend showed her channeling Pamela Anderson in a red one-piece swimsuit from her brand Yitty. The singer lounged poolside, flaunting her toned and noticeably slimmer curves as she ran her hands up and down her body. Her long, platinum blonde beach waves and icy, diamond-encrusted Yitty chain on her neck added to the drama.

However, the post was not without controversy. Lizzo's caption, "Put some @yitty on yo __!," left a blank space for fans to fill in with their own ideas, but it also seemed like a cheeky attempt to distract from her Ozempic admission. The singer has been facing backlash since she revealed that she had used the medication to help her lose weight.

The news comes after Lizzo's appearance on Trisha Paytas' podcast Just Trish in late June, where she finally came clean about using Ozempic as part of her weight loss journey. She explained that she tried everything else first and only turned to GLP-1 drugs when she needed an extra boost. "It's not cheating," she insisted. "It's a drug to help somebody with something they're struggling with."

However, fans were not convinced. Many felt betrayed by Lizzo's admission, especially after she previously denied using any form of weight loss medication and credited her transformation to an extreme workout regimen and eating healthy. In September 2024, she even went so far as to say that she started getting results when she stopped being vegan and began eating meat again.

"I was consuming a lot of fake meats," she explained at the time. "I was eating a lot of bread. I was eating a lot of rice and I had to eat a lot of it to stay full." It seemed like Lizzo was trying to downplay her use of Ozempic, but now that she's come clean, fans are left feeling shocked and betrayed.

Lizzo's admission has also raised questions about body positivity and the impact of social media on our perception of ourselves. The singer has always been open about her struggles with self-acceptance and her desire to promote a more inclusive and accepting beauty standard. But now that she's used a weight loss medication to achieve her goals, it seems like she may have compromised some of those values.

In an interview with Women's Health, Lizzo revealed that she's adopted a high-protein, low-carb diet to help her meet and exceed her fitness goals. She starts her day with two scrambled eggs, chicken sausage, and a cauliflower hash brown for breakfast. For lunch, she opts for shredded Thai chicken salad or lettuce wraps stuffed with tuna or sliced chicken breast.

For dinner, she often goes for turkey meatloaf with cauliflower mashed potatoes and green beans - a satisfying, balanced meal to round out her day. She makes sure to finish eating by 5 p.m. so that her body has time to digest food before she goes to sleep, which is essential for managing her GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease).

Lizzo's snacks are equally disciplined: low-sugar Greek yogurt with blueberries or blackberries topped with a drizzle of honey for sweetness. She's also ditched her former habit of multiple daily Frappuccinos and now sticks to coffee with vanilla protein powder instead.

It's clear that Lizzo has made significant lifestyle changes in pursuit of her fitness goals, but the question on everyone's mind is: was it worth compromising some of her core values? The singer still allows herself a few indulgences, including chicken tenders with waffles, crab legs or a coconut-cream-filled donut. But for most people, those treats would be off-limits if they're following Lizzo's strict diet and exercise routine.

Lizzo's transformation is also supported by a strict fitness routine guided by a personal trainer. "There's a balance," she said in the interview. "I think that's what true health is." But for some fans, it seems like Lizzo has lost sight of that balance - at least, not until now.

In conclusion, Lizzo's Ozempic admission has left her fans divided and wondering about the impact of social media on our perception of ourselves. While she may have achieved a slimmer figure, some are questioning whether it was worth compromising some of her core values. As for Lizzo herself, only time will tell if this new chapter in her journey will be one of redemption or regret.
