Los Angeles, Sep 14 (NationPress) Filmmaker Baz Luhrmann has shared insights about discovering more personal aspects of the King of Rock while creating his latest film, ‘EPiC: Elvis Presley in Concert’.
The ‘About Damn Time’ artist, 37, made a stylish appearance at Christian Siriano’s Spring/Summer 2026 runway event in New York City, flaunting her recent weight loss in a sheer corset bodysuit, as reported by People magazine.
In the photos, Lizzo was seen rocking the transparent outfit complemented by a black chiffon wrap skirt, paired with strappy high-heeled sandals. She accentuated her look with soft glam makeup and a sleek red hairstyle. The musician was spotted sitting alongside Oprah Winfrey, Whoopi Goldberg, Gayle King, and other notable celebrities.
This latest appearance coincides with her public weight-loss journey. Lizzo revealed that she achieved her "weight release goal" in January.
On the cover of Women's Health for its July issue, Lizzo expressed that she utilizes fitness not only for physical well-being but also for mental health. She stated, “I like how I look now. I still think I’m big. I’m still wearing plus-size clothing. I have the same rolls. I got the same belly, the same thighs, I think I’m just a smaller version. Body positivity has nothing to do with staying the same. Body positivity is the radical act of daring to exist loudly and proudly in a society that told you you shouldn’t exist.”
According to People, speculation regarding her use of Ozempic or similar GLP-1 medications for weight loss has shadowed the singer during her fitness journey. She has previously stated she’s “tried everything” to shed pounds while consistently denying claims of long-term medication use.
“I work my a** off, training 3x a week, daily sauna & cardio, adding animal protein back into my diet, hiring a chef who helps me meal prep and keeps track of what I put into my body in a calorie deficit,” she wrote in July in a now-deleted Instagram post.
