Slim Lizzo is unrecognizable as she steps out looking elegant in NYC

Slim Lizzo is unrecognizable as she steps out looking elegant in NYC

Lizzo modeled a demure look as she showed off her recent weight loss in New York City on Wednesday.

The 36-year-old music artist — who stunned at the Breakthrough Prize ceremony last weekend — was clad in a light wash denim trench coat with a matching scarf draped around her neck.

The Michigan-bred fashionista added black accents with a pair of gloves and pointy-toe slingback shoes with a kitten heel.

Despite her modest look, the singer’s frame was noticeably slimmer.

She appeared to be in great spirits as she flashed her megawatt smile in a full face of warm-toned makeup.

Lizzo — born Melissa Jefferson — was a guest on Jay Shetty’s On Purpose podcast this week, where she discussed her ‘weight release journey.’

Addressing her shrinking frame, she declared, ‘I have been on an intentional weight release journey.’

The About Damn Time songwriter continued, ‘I put it on the internet. I posted about it, and I think over the last year and a half, as I’ve been doing it, my body has been changing — very slowly — but I don’t think people were paying attention.’

She opened up, ‘I was still very anti-fatphobia on this entire journey. But I think that we gotta remember: everybody’s not seeing your sh*t all the time, everybody’s not seeing every video you post, everybody’s not privy to what you’re going through.’

Fans were shocked to see a much smaller Lizzo earlier this year when she released Love In Real Life, the тιтular first single off her upcoming album.

It was followed by a second song, Still Bad, which she is actively promoting on social media.

She explained further on Shetty’s podcast, ‘[Everybody’s] not with you every day. So when I pop out on a red carpet or when a video suddenly goes viral and my body is different, it appears like it was overnight. It appears sudden.’

Lizzo sH๏τ to fame in 2019, when she was much heavier, and quickly became an outspoken voice for body positivity.

While speaking to Jay this week she acknowledged, ‘I think [my weight loss] was shocking to a lot of people.’

Lizzo made a triumphant return to the stage in March with a show at The Wiltern in Los Angeles.

Addressing the audience between songs, she opened up about her struggle with depression after getting hit with Sєxual harᴀssment lawsuits by her backup dancers in 2023.

She confessed things got so ‘dark’ for her at times that she started to have suicidal thoughts.

‘I named [my album Love In Real Life] because about a year and a half ago — it’s so hard for me to talk about — I was in such a dark, deep depression,’ the classically trained musician shared.

‘I was so heartbroken by the world and so deeply hurt that I didn’t want to live anymore, and I was so deeply afraid of people that I didn’t want to be seen. Eventually I got over that fear,’ she continued.

The hitmaker said her breakthrough came when a complete stranger at a concert ‘looked at me and said, “Lizzo, I love you.”‘
