Like that&#8217;s a word that used to get hurled at women,&#8221; Lizzo told\u00a0 &#8220;CBS Mornings&#8221; co-host Gayle King in an exclusive interview. &#8220;It&#8217;s my favorite word.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h2>&#8220;The truth will come out&#8221;<\/h2>\n<p>The Grammy winner&#8217;s new music comes amid her\u00a0<span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/lizzo-new-lawsuit-former-employee-asha-daniels-alleges-harassment-discrimination\/\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">legal trouble<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n<p>In 2023, three of her former backup dancers filed a lawsuit against the singer, alleging a hostile work environment and sexual harassment during her world tour.

I&#8217;m here to give music to my fans.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h2>Weight loss journey<\/h2>\n<p>Lizzo has also made headlines for her weight loss journey.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I released the anxiety I was going through. I released depression and I also released some weight on my body.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She said she&#8217;s &#8220;not a skinny person&#8221; and is not trying to be.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I mean if I came out today as a brand new artist with this body, I would still get the same criticisms I got back in 2019.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Responding to rumors that she used weight loss medications, Lizzo explained her weight loss journey was done &#8220;with a calorie deficit, cardio and protein.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>But she admitted she tried a GLP-1 drug years ago, and said it didn&#8217;t work for her.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m scared of needles and it just did not work out for me,&#8221; she explained. &#8220;So when I decided to do the weight release journey in 2023, which was years after, I was like, &#8216;I&#8217;m gonna have to do it the old fashioned way.'&#8221;<\/p>\n<h2>Focusing on music<\/h2>\n<p>As for the future, the four-time Grammy winner said she&#8217;s looking forward to touring again soon.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I know the music is good and I know my heart is good,&#8221; she said. &#8220;So if I know that, I have nothing to worry about. People are gonna say what they wanna say. They&#8217;re gonna think what they are going to think.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She said believing in her heart and craft she hopes to &#8220;inspire other people to do it too.&#8221;<\/p>\n<section
