Grammy-winning singer Lizzo has shocked fans by announcing her retirement from music. In a lengthy Instagram post, Lizzo, known for her body-positive anthems and infectious flute playing, revealed she’s stepping away from the industry due to relentless online bullying.

The 35-year-old singer expressed her exhaustion at being constantly targeted for her appearance. She stated she is tired of being “the butt of the joke every single time” and called out the spread of “lies” for online attention.

Lizzo’s impact on the music industry is undeniable. She is a four-time Grammy Award winner, along with a Billboard Music Award, a BET Award, and two Soul Train Music Awards. Her decision to retire leaves a void in the music world, especially for those who resonated with her message of self-love and acceptance.
