莉佐谈及了自己在历时多年的法律纠纷期间的新音乐，以及她为何在去年无限期搁置了一张音乐项目。
她备受期待的新专辑将于6月5日发行，这位歌手希望通过一个单词来赋予女性力量。
“这张专辑名叫《Bitch》，”莉佐说道，“主打歌之后……我总会有一首同名标题曲。”
这张专辑的标题曲采样了梅雷迪思·布鲁克斯的同名女权主义圣歌，以及梅西·埃利奥特的歌曲《She’s a Bitch》。
“我觉得这两位女性都以赋予这个词语力量的方式，推动了它的使用，而非夺走它的力量。这个词过去常常被用来辱骂女性，”莉佐在接受《哥伦比亚广播公司晨间新闻》联合主持人盖尔·金的独家专访时说道，“它是我最喜欢的词。”
“真相终将水落石出”
这位格莱美奖得主的新音乐作品推出之际，正值她陷入法律纠纷。
2023年，她的三名前伴舞对这位歌手提起诉讼，指控她在全球巡演期间营造了充满敌意的工作环境，并存在性骚扰行为。其中一名舞者还声称自己因体重遭到羞辱。

体重羞辱的指控最终被驳回。
但部分性骚扰指控仍未了结，其中包括舞者们指控莉佐逼迫她们在阿姆斯特丹的一家脱衣舞俱乐部与裸体表演者互动。
莉佐正在对该裁决提起上诉，并表示不会和解。
“我为这个案子抗争，因为我知道这不是真的，”她说，“就像那次体重羞辱指控也不是真的一样。”
如果案件进入庭审，莉佐表示她已准备好出庭作证，并称：“真相终将水落石出，这也是我并不畏惧的原因。”
“真相远没有头条新闻那么耸人听闻，”她补充道。
莉佐表示，由于案件仍在审理中，她无法透露细节，但补充说她“迫不及待地希望案件被驳回”。
去年，这位歌手原本计划发行另一张录音室专辑《Love in Real Life》。其中两首单曲未能登上公告牌排行榜，随后该项目被无限期搁置，莉佐表示这是她自己的决定。
“我没有拖延任何事，”她说，“我认为我一直在制作一张专辑，长期以来我给自己施加了很大压力，而去年我意识到，我来到这里是为了创作音乐，是为了将音乐带给我的粉丝。”
减肥历程
莉佐还因自己的减肥历程登上新闻头条。
“我摆脱了一直以来的焦虑，摆脱了抑郁，同时也减掉了身上的一些体重。”
她表示自己“不是一个瘦子”，也没有打算成为瘦子。
“我的意思是，如果我现在以一个全新艺人的身份带着这样的身材出道，我还是会遭到和2019年时一样的批评。”
针对自己使用减肥药的传闻，莉佐解释称，她的减肥历程是“通过热量缺口、有氧运动和蛋白质摄入实现的”。
但她承认自己多年前曾尝试过一种GLP-1类药物，并表示该药对她不起作用。
“我害怕打针，而且它确实没效果，”她解释道，“所以当我在2023年决定开启减重之旅时，那已经是好几年之后了，我当时就想，‘我得用老办法来减肥了。’”
专注于音乐事业
至于未来，这位四届格莱美奖得主表示，她期待不久后能再次开启巡演。
“我知道我的音乐很棒，也知道我的本心是好的，”她说，“所以只要我清楚这一点，就没什么可担心的。人们想说什么就说什么，他们想怎么想就怎么想。”
她表示，相信自己的本心和作品，她希望“也能激励其他人去做同样的事”。
Lizzo opens up about new music amid yearslong legal battle: “The truth will come out”
May 4, 2026 / 11:14 AM EDT / CBS News
Lizzo is opening up about her new music amid a yearslong legal battle and why she indefinitely placed a project on hold last year.
Her highly anticipated album is set to be released on June 5 and the singer hopes it empowers women with the use of a single word.
“The album is called ‘Bitch,’” Lizzo said. “After the song … I always have a title track.”
The album’s title track samples Meredith Brooks’ feminist anthem of the same name as well as Missy Elliott’s song, “She’s a Bitch.”
“I feel like what both of those women did was they pushed that word forward in a way that empowered it, instead of taking the power away. Like that’s a word that used to get hurled at women,” Lizzo told “CBS Mornings” co-host Gayle King in an exclusive interview. “It’s my favorite word.”
“The truth will come out”
The Grammy winner’s new music comes amid her legal trouble.
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. One dancer also claimed she was shamed for her weight.

The weight shaming allegation was ultimately dismissed.
But some of the sexual harassment claims still remain, including the dancers’ allegation that Lizzo pressured them to engage with nude performers at a burlesque club in Amsterdam.
Lizzo is appealing that ruling and said she will not settle.
“I’m fighting the case because I know that it’s not true,” she said. “Just like the fat shaming one is not true.”
If the case goes to trial, Lizzo said she’s ready to testify, saying, “the truth will come out, and that’s why I’m not afraid of it.”
“The truth is less salacious than the headlines,” she added.
Lizzo said because it is an ongoing case, she can’t talk about the details, but added she “cannot wait for it to be dismissed.”
Last year, the singer was set to release another studio album, “Love in Real Life.” Two of the singles didn’t reach the Billboard charts and later the project was put on hold indefinitely, which Lizzo said was her decision.
“I didn’t delay anything,” she said. “I think that I have been working on an album and I put a lot of pressure on me for a long time, and I think what I learned last year was like, I’m here to make music. I’m here to give music to my fans.”
Weight loss journey
Lizzo has also made headlines for her weight loss journey.
“I released the anxiety I was going through. I released depression and I also released some weight on my body.”
She said she’s “not a skinny person” and is not trying to be.
“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.”
Responding to rumors that she used weight loss medications, Lizzo explained her weight loss journey was done “with a calorie deficit, cardio and protein.”
But she admitted she tried a GLP-1 drug years ago, and said it didn’t work for her.
“I’m scared of needles and it just did not work out for me,” she explained. “So when I decided to do the weight release journey in 2023, which was years after, I was like, ‘I’m gonna have to do it the old fashioned way.’”
Focusing on music
As for the future, the four-time Grammy winner said she’s looking forward to touring again soon.
“I know the music is good and I know my heart is good,” she said. “So if I know that, I have nothing to worry about. People are gonna say what they wanna say. They’re gonna think what they are going to think.”
She said believing in her heart and craft she hopes to “inspire other people to do it too.”
