Lizzo has earned her place as one of the best pop stars of our time. She made history by becoming the first African American woman to win the Grammy for Record of the Year since Whitney Houston. She also holds the record for the longest-running solo song by a female rapper with her hit song “Truth Hurts,” which topped the charts in 2016.
Even with all her achievements, Lizzo’s appearance has frequently been a big topic of discussion. She has received both praise and criticism for promoting body positivity. Recently, her weight loss has sparked more controversy. Here’s what you should know about Lizzo’s weight loss and how she has responded to her critics.
Is Lizzo taking Ozempic?
Lizzo has been sharing her weight loss journey on Instagram. However, some people have accused her of using the weight loss medication Ozempic to help her lose weight quickly.
On September 22, Lizzo used Instagram to respond to rumors about her using Ozempic. She shared a screenshot of a comment that suggested she was relying on outside help to lose weight, asking, “Did she use Ozempic or did she snort coke?” In reply, Lizzo wrote, “Whyyyy do u follow me?”
She denied taking Ozempic and told her fans that her weight loss comes from a dedicated workout routine. In a sarcastic tone, she posted a video saying, “When you finally get Ozempic allegations after 5 months of weight training and calorie deficit.”
Did Lizzo get weight loss surgery?
Weight loss surgery has also been a topic of conversation regarding Lizzo’s transformation. Many fans are surprised by the big changes in her appearance over the past five months and wonder if she might have had surgery to achieve these results.
Lizzo has denied using surgery or other drastic measures to lose weight, saying she loves her body no matter what size she is. She shared a video on Instagram showing her weight loss journey, with the caption: “Fine both ways.”
Even though some have accused her of body shaming her backup dancers and others privately, Lizzo has kept a positive attitude. She may have lost weight, but she still supports body positivity.
Hurricane Milton live updates: ‘Potentially catastrophic’ Category 5 storm takes aim at Florida
Milton hurricane rapidly intensified on October 7th, with wind speeds reaching 257 km/h, making it a Category 5 hurricane — the highest level on the U.S. scale — just two days after forming in the Gulf of Mexico.
The U.S. National Hurricane Center predicts that Milton will make landfall on Florida’s west coast midweek as a high-intensity storm. The projected path shows that Hurricane Milton will strike the Tampa Bay area on October 9th and continue moving through Central Florida toward the Atlantic Ocean.
Although Milton is smaller than the previous superstorm Helene, it will pass through more densely populated areas, increasing the risk of storm surges and causing significant damage.
Southern Florida has already begun to feel the initial impacts of the storm, with flooding reported in Miami-Dade County and the Everglades. Flood warnings are expected to remain in effect in many areas until October 10th. Forecast models are concerned that if Hurricane Milton makes landfall in Tampa Bay, it could cause severe storm surges and potentially become the region’s most catastrophic natural disaster in history.
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has declared a state of emergency in 51 counties, advising residents to stock up on enough food and water for a week and be prepared for evacuation. Mandatory evacuation orders have been issued for many healthcare facilities and high-risk areas. Public services and schools in several places, such as Pinellas County, have been temporarily closed from October 7th to October 9th in response to Hurricane Milton.
Hurricane and storm surge warnings have been issued for multiple areas along Florida’s Gulf Coast. Heavy rainfall of up to 37 cm is expected to impact the Florida Peninsula and the Florida Keys from October 8th to October 9th.
