Lizzo is proving that she’s focused on her fitness journey, despite negative comments from critics. 

On Friday (Sept. 20), the "Truth Hurts" singer addressed rumors that she’s been using the weight loss drug Ozempic after showcasing her weight loss transformation on social media.

"When you finally get Ozempic allegations after 5 months of weight training and calorie deficit," she captioned a video on Instagram, sighing into the camera in response to the unfounded claims.
