Lizzo Subtly Responds to Antonio Brown’s Joke About Her Taking Ozempic

Lizzo is staying unbothered when it comes to jokes about health, including Antonio Brown’s recent jab about her taking Ozempic.

Captioning a series of Instagram photos of her modeling various bikinis and form-fitting dresses Monday (Nov. 11), the “About Damn Time” singer wrote, “Holding life like an ozempic pen.. 😝” — a seemingly nonchalant sentiment unless you know the context. But one day prior, the retired NFL star had retweeted a video Lizzo posted and quipped, “She hold the pen like she hold her ozempic shot…..”

In the clip, the Grammy winner had filmed herself writing on a piece of paper, “Sending LOVE to everyone in the WORLD.” She originally posted the video Nov. 7, two days after the presidential election.

Lizzo’s post responding to Brown is just the latest instance of the musician laughing off comments about her body. In September, she clapped back at speculation about her recent weight loss by posting a video of herself sighing into the camera, captioning it, “When you finally get Ozempic allegations after 5 months of weight training and calorie deficit.” 

Then, for this year’s Halloween, the Yitty founder dressed up as “LizzOzempic,” a costume inspired by a recent episode of South Park that suggested Lizzo’s message of body positivity as an alternative for the popular weight-loss drug. She also reacted to the episode in May, when it first aired.

“I just feel like, damn, I’m really that b—h,” she said in a TikTok at the time. “I showed the world how to love yourself, and now these men in Colorado know who the f–k I am, and put it in their cartoon that’s been around for 25 years.”

The “Truth Hurts” artist has been particularly open this year about her fitness journey, from getting vulnerable in September about a small setback — “I overate yesterday and im feeling really bad about it … trying to remind myself that my body needed that nourishment,” she wrote on TikTok — to sharing her workouts on social media. In October, she participated in Fortune’s Most Powerful Women Summit and spoke about the complexities of her appearance changing in front of the public eye.

“One inevitability we all have to face is that our bodies will change … it’s a beautiful thing,” she said at the time. “My body is nobody’s business, other than me, my doctor, my trainer and my man.”
