Lizzo is back and proving why she's still that girl. After almost two years away from the stage, the Grammy-winning artist made her grand return at The Wiltern in Los Angeles, kicking off her highly anticipated "Real Life" mini-tour. With only three exclusive stops—next up, Irving Plaza in New York on March 16 and First Avenue in Minneapolis on March 18—this is the Lizzo comeback fans have been waiting for.

Lizzo didn't just step back into the spotlight; she owned it. The "About Damn Time" hitmaker strutted on stage in a plunging black leather bodysuit, shimmering silver hot pants, and a fishnet catsuit, all topped off with a dramatic white satin feather-trimmed jacket. And that was just look one.

Throughout the night, she switched it up with a bold silver chain skirt-and-top combo and a racy black bodysuit with fishnet stockings, proving that her fashion game is just as fierce as her vocals.

As always, she brought high-energy dance moves, powerhouse vocals, and signature flute skills, ensuring every second of the show was peak Lizzo.

Fans also got a special treat: a live performance of her latest single, "Love in Real Life," released on February 28.

Lizzo's Transformation Has Everyone Talking

Beyond the music, Lizzo's noticeably slimmed-down figure has been a hot topic. The 36-year-old singer recently hit her weight-loss goal, proudly revealing that she dropped 16% of her body fat and lowered her BMI by 10.5.

"I did it," she shared on her weight-loss app in January. "I haven't seen this number since 2014! Let this be a reminder you can do anything you put your mind to. Time for new goals!"

Lizzo has always embraced her body at every size, shutting down critics while keeping it real about her health journey. In early 2024, she opened up about her intentional weight loss, making it clear she wasn't chasing a "thin" ideal but simply prioritizing her happiness and well-being.

"Even at the end of my weight-loss journey, I'm not going to be considered thin by any means," she said. "I will still be considered morbidly obese on the BMI. And little bros on the internet are still going to call me big backed. But I will be happy."

No Ozempic, Just Hard Work

While many celebs have turned to Ozempic and other weight-loss injectables, Lizzo has rolled her eyes at the speculation. Instead, she credits her transformation to five months of strength training, a calorie deficit, and a high-protein, veggie-based diet.

Last Halloween, she even poked fun at the trend with a costume inspired by the controversial weight-loss drug, proving she's still got her signature sense of humor.

A Comeback Worth the Wait

Lizzo might have hinted at quitting music last year, saying she was "tired of being the butt of the joke," but judging by her epic return to the stage, she's not going anywhere.

She made history as the first female rapper to win Record of the Year at the Grammys in 2023, and now, she's back to remind everyone why she belongs at the top.
