Low-key obsessed with Lizzo at the moment…
Oh, you haven’t heard of her? Neither had I until like two days ago, and after playing her new single, Juice, over and over for two hours straight, then deep-diving through her videos on YouTube, I’m wondering why she isn’t running the free world yet a la Beyoncé. I really hope her singing career blows up this year.
Do your self-esteem a favor and press play now.
She’s like Missy Elliot meets Beyoncé meets the Shirelles meets Lil’ Kim meets Cece Peniston, all wrapped up into a single gorgeous package. I just started following her on Instagram, too. She’s talented, hilarious, fearless when it comes to fashion, and all about the boooooty.
AND DID I MENTION THAT SHE PLAYS THE CLASSICAL FLUTE?! WHILE SHE TWERKS?!
Seriously, who does this…?
A lot of her songs are about positivity and loving yourself, and her videos feature women of different shapes, sizes and colors.
I’m suddenly feeling the need to get my hair done and check my nails…
That baby in the bathtub is too cute!
I’m getting a Tweet vibe from this song (remember her?). Also, everyone looks so moisturized and fabulous!
Her older stuff is good, too.
OH, and her makeup! She’s always doing something different.
Give her stuff a listen sometime. It’ll make you feel like the best version of yourself.
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen

Omg Karen me too!!!! I’m obsessed! Obsessed with her sound and her quirky but polished videos! After hearing Juice I too dug into her old music and loved everything . I love the Skin vidéo and love the songs BGSW and 1 Deep.

Hi Sierra,
Yeah, she’s super cool! I love that she has a sense of humor, too. 🙂
P.S. I just listened to “Let ‘Em Say” a bunch of times!

I hadn´t heard about her yet either, but the way you describe her sounds fun.
Karen says
She is!

Wow, Juice is the most fun song I’ve heard in awhile. Thanks, Karen! She really does have a good sense of humor. I love all the body sizes, too. (As a related side note, just before watching this I saw a news blurb about how a woman called Meghan Markle a “fat lady.” The news reported it as if it were an insult. I was like, No way! That’s a compliment in some communities!! She was totally complimenting her on her healthy pregnancy look.) Anyhoo – awesome glowing makeup on Lizzo. I love the line, “If I’m shiny, everybody gonna shine.” That’s so positive. 🙂

Oh my gosh she’s so catchy haha. Her music, but also her. She’s just a ball of good energy that you can’t stop watching. So captivating! I’ve never heard of her before, I enjoyed that.
