Lizzo turned heads on Thursday as she made a statement appearance in a stunning blue outfit while attending the amfAR gala in Cannes.
The singer, who has been on a fitness journey, has set tongues wagging on social media due to her notable weight loss and youthful glow.
Lizzo also opened up about her transformation, slamming critics who accused her of using the popular drug Ozempic to achieve her new physique.
Lizzo steals the show at the amfAR gala in a blue corseted dress
The “Good As Hell” singer had all the cameras on her when she showed up at the recent amfAR gala wearing a blue dress by famed designer Robert Wun.
The outfit had a special piercing detail that allowed a stunning diamond necklace to be hung on the chest.
Lizzo finished off this breathtaking ensemble with an elegant blue satin fishtail skirt, matching gloves that fooled the eye, and stacks of diamonds trailing down her arms and neck.
The first fundraiser for amfAR, the American Foundation for AIDS Research, was reportedly hosted by Academy Award winner Geena Davis and featured performances by singers Zara Larsson and Robbie Williams.
The singer’s stunning outfit has fans excited about her transformation
On social media, Lizzo’s fans have been full of praise for the pop star, praising her for her bold fashion choices that show off her figure.
“It’s so campy and yet very fashionable. She ate it,” one person noted, while another said, “This outfit is EVERYTHING.”
Others noted how happy and comfortable the singer looked in Robert Wun’s look, while some, a little more critical of the outfit, seemed to dislike the necklace hanging from her chest.
“She had too many necklaces; she didn’t know where to put the other one,” one person joked about Lizzo’s outfit.
Another person noted: “With the right style this could have been a unique moment! »
Lizzo opens up about her 60+ pound weight loss
The music diva has been very outspoken about her fitness and pursuing a healthier lifestyle, losing around 60 pounds, according to reports.
Although the pop star has never given a specific number herself, she announced in 2025 on Instagram that she had finally achieved her weight loss goal after reducing her body fat by 16%.
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 truly ‘thin’.”
She continued: “‘I will always have the stretch and skin of a woman who carries a great weight. And I’m proud of it. Even if the world doesn’t want me to be.’
The singer admitted to trying Ozempic and learning it wasn’t for her
Lizzo has faced scrutiny over her weight loss journey, with critics claiming the pop star, like many in Hollywood, resorted to the popular drug Ozempic to achieve her new physique.
Although she initially ignored these claims, Lizzo eventually addressed them during a conversation with YouTuber Trisha Paytas, where she admitted to using drugs for a short time and ultimately decided 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 fills you up, so if you can just do that on your own and focus on the material, it’s the same shit.”
Lizzo revealed she became ‘paranoid’ over her legal battle
Lizzo is in a legal dispute with her former dancers, who accused her of sexual harassment, among other allegations.
According to the singer, the aftermath of the incident made her “paranoid” and made her lose sight of who she was.
Lizzo made the confession during a conversation 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.”
“I got to the point where I said, ‘I could die,'” she added. “I never attempted suicide or thought about it, but I thought, if everyone hates you and thinks you’re a horrible person, then what’s the point?”
Luckily for the singer, she was able to find the strength she needed to turn her life around after attending Beyoncé’s “Renaissance” tour and seeing thousands of fans enthusiastically cheering her on.
“It made me feel like, ‘Wow, maybe I don’t want to die,'” Lizzo said of the experience. “Life is worth living. That’s what kicked me off and said, ‘Okay, Melissa, turn your -ss on and get back to your fucking life.’
