by

As a gamer with a deep-rooted appreciation for music and resilience, I can truly empathize with Lizzo’s journey. Having navigated my share of online trolls and adversity, I admire her unwavering spirit and commitment to mental health.

Lizzo, the popular singer known for her recent chart-topping pop tunes and uplifting feminist messages, announced on Instagram that she’ll be taking a break from work for a year, while enjoying the beautiful surroundings of Bali.

On August 25th, Lizzo posted on her Instagram story that she’s taking a break for a year and prioritizing her peace. The image she shared is serene and features Lizzo in deep thought, surrounded by the tranquil atmosphere of Bali, suggesting she might find it hard to leave such a healing environment.

Over the last few days, I’ve been tagging along on this Bali vacation journey shared by my favorite singer. In one of her posts, she mentioned, “I’m going to flood your feed with way too many swimsuit pics.” But it comes as no surprise, because she embraces and flaunts her body confidently, without a care in the world. This theme seems to resonate strongly with her as she expresses her vivacity and the spirit of her hit song “Good as Hell.”

Lizzo shared a sped-up video on Instagram Stories, showing her jumping rope from a beautiful Bali balcony. This suggests that she’s committed to maintaining a healthy routine, even while taking a travel break.

Following a tumultuous year marked by her open discussions about mental health struggles, Lizzo has decided to take some time off. This move comes shortly after she faced intense public scrutiny and allegations of sexual harassment from three ex-tour dancers, which led to a lawsuit being filed in March, only for it to be paused to allow for appeals. Lizzo firmly denies these accusations, labeling them as exaggerated stories.

This week, Lizzo has been expressing her frustration over constant online criticism from people claiming it’s tiring to encounter negativity day after day. She expressed her feelings by saying, “I am so tired of being belittled by everyone in my life and on the internet.” Despite feeling quite disheartened by these comments, she made clear that she won’t stop making music. It is significant to mention that what she intends to persist with is her greatest source of joy – music, which she shares with others.

Based on the analysis, Lizzo’s 2022 album, Special, started at number 2 on the Billboard 200 chart, while her single “About Damn Time” reached number 1 on the Hot 100. With such impressive success, it seems that she needed a break to relax and rejuvenate. Now, she’s in Bali, immersing herself in its beautiful nature, working out, and taking time off to rest. Prioritizing health is crucial for everyone, so it’s great to see her looking after herself.

In the course of embracing self-love, Lizzo encourages and strengthens herself to pass on the message that everyone is alright to both her fans and herself.
