Lizzo turned heads on Thursday as she made a striking appearance in a stunning blue outfit while attending the amfAR gala in Cannes.
The singer, who has been on a fitness journey, set tongues wagging on social media due to her noticeable weight loss and youthful glow.
Lizzo has also spoken out about her transformation, slamming critics who accused her of using the popular drug Ozempic to achieve her new physique.
The “Good As Hell” singer had all the cameras on her when she turned up at the recently held amfAR Gala rocking a blue gown made by renowned designer Robert Wun.
The outfit had a peculiar piercing detail that allowed for a beautiful diamond necklace to be hung on the chest.
Lizzo finished off the jaw-dropping ensemble with a sleek blue satin fishtail skirt, matching gloves that tricked the eye, and stacks of diamonds trailing up her arms and neck.
According to reports, the premier fundraiser for amfAR, The American Foundation for AIDS Research, was hosted by Oscar winner Geena Davis and featured performances from singers Zara Larsson and Robbie Williams.

Lizzo Opens Up About Her Over 60 Pound Weight Loss
The music diva has been very candid about fitness and pursuing a healthier lifestyle, losing around 60 pounds, according to reports.
Although the pop star has never given a precise figure herself, she announced in 2025 on Instagram that she had finally hit her weight loss goal after reducing her body fat by 16 percent
In that same year, she addressed critics of her transformation who came after her for choosing to lose weight years after singing about body positivity.
“It was never about being ‘thin’ for me,” Lizzo wrote at the time. “I don’t even think it’s possible for me to be considered actually ‘thin.’”
She continued, “‘I will always have the stretch, and the skin of a woman who carries great weight. And I’m proud of that. Even when the world doesn’t want me to be.”
The Singer Admitted To Trying Ozempic And Learning It Wasn’t For Her
Lizzo faced severe scrutiny over her weight loss journey, with critics claiming the pop star, like many in Hollywood, had resorted to using the popular drug Ozempic to achieve her new physique.
Although she initially ignored the claims, Lizzo finally addressed them during a chat with YouTuber Trisha Paytas, where she admitted to using the drug for a short while and ultimately deciding it wasn’t for her.
According to Lizzo, she “tried everything,” but what really helped her in the end was counting calories.
“Ozempic works because you eat less food,” she told Paytas on her podcast. “That’s it. It makes you feel full, so if you can just do that on your own and get mind over matter, it’s the same sh-t.”
Lizzo Revealed She Became ‘Paranoid’ Over Her Legal Battle
Lizzo has been in a legal feud with her former dancers, who accused her of sexual harassment among other allegations.
According to the singer, the fallout from the incident left her feeling “paranoid” and made her lose sight of who she was.
Lizzo made the confession during a chat with Women’s Health magazine, noting, “I wasn’t even talking to my therapist. I wasn’t present. I wasn’t open. I wasn’t myself anymore.”
“It got to the point where I was like, ‘I could die,’” she added. “I never attempted to kill myself or thought about it, but I did think, If everyone hates you and thinks you’re a terrible person, then what’s the point?”
Fortunately for the singer, she was able to find the strength she needed to turn her life back around after attending Beyoncé’s “Renaissance” tour and seeing thousands of fans excitedly cheer her on.
“It made me feel like, ‘Wow, maybe I don’t want to die,’” Lizzo said about the experience. “Life is worth living. That was the kick-starter to me being like, ‘Okay, Melissa, get your -ss in gear and take your f-cking life back.”
