LIZZO defiantly twerked in a gold ʙικιɴι in New Zealand today – days after celebrity trainer Jillian Michaels body-shammed her on television.

The Grammy-nominated hitmaker, 31, who is currently on tour in Australia and New Zealand, is an advocate for body positivity and regularly shares motivating posts about self-love on Instagram.

The Truth Hurts songstress proved she wasn’t going to let Michaels’ nasty comments get to her as she shimmied in a daring gold lamé two-piece.

Visiting New Zealand’s Piha beach with her backing dancers, Lizzo shared several videos of her twerking on her Instagram Stories and another of her near the water’s edge laughing as she attempted to thrust her hips.

The Detroit native also posted a plethora of pictures to her feed, which showcased her flaunting her figure infront along the breath-taking beach.

Captioning the sH๏τ, she shared one of her body positive mantras: “I love you. You are beautiful. You can do anything. (Repeat)”.
