Lizzo Says Her ‘I Quit’ Post Wasn’t About Leaving Music
Lizzo thought it was “about damn time” to address the ambiguous message she posted to Instagram over the weekend.
In the post, the singer posted that she’s “tired of putting up with being dragged by everyone in my life and on the internet. All I want to do is make music and make people happy and help the world be a little better than how I found it,” adding. “But I’m starting to feel like the world doesn’t want me in it” and “I quit.”
Lizzo’s been in a legal battle with her backup dancers since last August, as three of the dancers alleged in a lawsuit that she fat-shamed and sexually harassed them. The singer denied the allegations with a statement to Instagram at the time, calling them “outrageous,” but in February, the California Supreme Court denied her motion to have the case dismissed.
