Lizzo made a striking appearance at the 2026 BET Awards in Los Angeles on Sunday, donning a sheer, sparkling brown gown. The 38-year-old singer, known for hits like "Truth Hurts," arrived at the Peacock Theater in a bold outfit, with her blonde curls strategically covering her chest. She accessorized with statement rings and glowing makeup to complete her look.
The artist was also scheduled to perform at the awards ceremony. Her appearance comes as she promotes her new album, "Bitch," which was released earlier this month. Lizzo recently shared that her favorite track from the album is "Sexy Ladies."
In addition to her music, Lizzo has been open about her significant weight loss. In November 2025, she detailed in a Substack post that she began losing weight in the fall of 2023, following a period of harassment and a hostile work environment that she described as making her "deeply suicidal." She noted that she previously would "binge when sad and depressed" but found a new way to cope by taking up Pilates.
Lizzo has addressed the public's reaction to her weight loss, particularly in relation to her past advocacy for body positivity. She stated, "There's nothing wrong with living in a bigger body. There's nothing wrong with being fat. But if a woman wants to change, she should be allowed to change." She also mentioned that she is proud of her body, acknowledging her "stretch, and the skin of a woman who carries great weight."
