Lizzo set out to make her Coachella appearance memorable and delivered a lively performance with bold visuals. She performed alongside a life-size Labubu figure, using the pink prop as a playful highlight of her set.
The 'Truth Hurts' hitmaker wore a layered outfit that included black shorts and sheer tights that shimmered under the bright stage lights. She paired what appeared to be black underwear with a white top. Her look was completed with black fishnet stockings, black boots, hoop earrings, and statement jewelry.

Lizzo posts jet photos, opens up about 'weight release' approach
In a separate update, Lizzo shared a set of photos highlighting her figure. She was seen walking toward a private jet on a tarmac and pausing to pose on the steps leading inside. Her track 'Don’t Make Me Love U' played in the background.
The four-time Grammy winner has been documenting her fitness journey on social media since early 2023. Last year, she said she had reached her goal.
In an appearance on the podcast 'On Purpose with Jay Shetty,' Lizzo explained that she prefers the term “weight release” rather than weight loss. “I want to be very intentional with the words that come out of my mouth,” she said.
