“Rumors,” Lizzo’s first single in two years, was released on Aug. 13 anddebuted at the topof the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart just a few weeks later. However, the track and its accompanyingmusic videoalso led to bullies trolling and body shaming the rapper online.

In an emotional Instagram Live last month, Lizzo tearfully explained that it was getting to be too much.
“People who have something mean to say about you, and for the most part it doesn’t hurt my feelings, I don’t care,” she said at the time. “I just think when I’m working this hard, my tolerance gets lower, my patience is lower. I’m more sensitive, and it gets to me.”
“It’s fatphobic, it’s racist, and it’s hurtful,” she said. “What I won’t accept is y’all doing this to Black women over and over and over again, especially us big Black girls. When we don’t fit into the box that you want to put us in, you just unleash hatred onto us. It’s not cool. I’m doing this s— for the big Black women in the future who just want to live their lives without being scrutinized or put into boxes.”
