Lizzo has shown that she’s not afraid to show her body to the world, but that doesn’t mean that everybody is particularly fine with it, specifically her family members.
On June 28, Lizzo appeared on “Carpool Karaoke,” and she talked about how her family members aren’t a big fan of some of the things she’s done over the course of her career..
“For the first 10 years of my life, when we lived in Detroit, I was in the Church of God in Christ,” Lizzo said. “When you have faith, it is strict with the kind of music you listen to. We didn’t listen to secular music, it was devil music.”
The host of the show, James Corden, asked if she would have been allowed to listen to her own music during those years of her life.
“Early on, yes. When Lizzo started cussing, no,” Lizzo said. “I’ve pissed a few family members off. I don’t know if it’s just that. It might be the a–, the nudity.”
Lizzo says her family members call her mom now to tell her about her pictures.
“My cousin Pookie gets mad at me all the time,” Lizzo said. He’ll call my mom and be like, ‘Hey, tell Melissa to put some clothes on.’ And then I double down and post more nudes the next day.”
