Lizzo Clarifies Her Stance on Taking a “Gap Year”
Lizzo is keeping busy.
Less than two months after she announced on Instagram, “I’m taking a gap year & protecting my peace,” the 36-year-old revealed she has quietly been hard at work on her newest ventures.
“As soon as I stepped down home from tour—I may not be as public-facing— but I went straight to Yitty headquarters,” Lizzo said at the Fortune Most Powerful Women Summit Oct. 14, referring to the shapewear brand she launched in 2022 in partnership with Fabletics, “and I’ve just been working, working, working.”
The “Good as Hell” singer, who had toured for 10 months until July 2023, continued, “So you might not see me, but I’ve been working. It ain’t a gap year, it’s a grind year.”
Lizzo, whose latest musical release was the song “Pink” from the Barbie soundtrack, also said she was “very, very close” to finishing a new album.
She has kept a lower profile since 2023, when after her tour ended, three of her former backup dancers filed a lawsuit against her, accusing her of creating an “abusive work environment” in which they were subjected to sexual harassment, weight-shaming and disability discrimination,” accusations Lizzo later denied on social media.
