Lizzo hits back at critics calling her a ‘sell out’ for using detox plan
Lizzo has responded to her critics after
coming under fire online for sharing her experience using a detox plan
yesterday.
It all began when the Truth Hurts singer shared a recap of a
10-day detox plan that she was using to Instagram and TikTok yesterday, which
she said was to help her gastrointestinal problems after a trip to Mexico.
Noting that she ate and drank a lot which
“F***ked my stomach up”, the Grammy winner shared her meal plan with her
followers, not expecting the flood of negative comments that would follow.
Many called her a ‘sell out’ while
others questioned her sincerity about the body positivity message she’s
promoted for much of her career.
Lizzo later returned to Instagram
Story to tackle the backlash head-on.
She said, “As you know I would normally be so afraid and ashamed to post things like this online, because I feel like as a big girl people just expect if you are doing something for health you’re doing it for like, a dramatic weight loss. And that is not the case.”
